Paul,

Direct2D has existed for a good while.

I know. But as it specifically mentions D3D 11 ....

The question would be, whether actual D3D 11 constructs
are #included or it's just the bollox of the support
files.

I don't think I've got the expertise to work that out (other than installing
D3D versions in a row and see which one will cause the message to
disappear - which is something I do not really spend my time on).

Browsers and old OSes - the war never ends.

I often dreamed of moving the crypto suite
from a modern FF to an older one, but
what are the odds that is modular.

I already did so to see if I could move the FF 52 parts onto FF 16. I
intercepted the function calls to the different DLLs in both versions, and
tried to match them up. I gave up on it when I saw too many functions
disappearing and structures changing. :-(


But what I tried to ask was if you knew if there maybe is an earlier version
of FF which supports encryptions just like FF 52 does, but doesn't have that
"phone home" stuff yet.
