Creating a RichEdit Editor Using MASM64 (Microsoft Macro Assembler) with a Ribbon UI and Text Object Model (TOM) Interfaces in Visual Studio 2022 is for beginners in MASM64 programming, for educational purposes only.

Objective:
By the end of Lesson 1, you will be able to:
✔ Set up a MASM64 project in Visual Studio 2022.
✔ Use UICC (UI Command Compiler) from Windows11 SDK to compile Ribbon markup (XML) into usable resources.
✔ Integrate a Ribbon UI into a MASM64 application.


Note: Bypass the “Always use secure connections” option in Chrome and allow HTTP (insecure) connections:
What does “Always use secure connections” do?
When this toggle is enabled in chrome://settings/security, Chrome automatically upgrades HTTP requests to HTTPS if possible, or warns you if it can’t.
To disable it:
1. Open Chrome. In the address bar, type: "chrome://settings/security"
2. Find “Always use secure connections” and turn it OFF (toggle should be gray).


Please download the source code from my new MASM64 forum:

Non-secure link (HTTPS unsupported) and the download is 404.

I know who the guru bitRAKE is and I really appreciate his attention to a beginner like me.
To download a file from an insecure site that starts with http:// and doesn't have https://, try right-clicking the link again to copy and then pasting into your browser's address bar. Press Enter.
Once your browser prompts you, allow downloading from the insecure site and try to continue with the download.
It's also a good idea to use the Tor browser. thanks!

I'm trying to upload my zip file to this forum, but it looks very large and I'm getting an error:
General Error
Tried to upload empty file. Sorry.

Hi,ognil

Although the uploaded file is empty, but it's elegant.

Why so long? Just try from command bar: http:///ognil.ihostfull.com

or ask AI how to enter in non security sites. (http:).

Later: second attachment -> from ChatGPT- HTTP Not Secure Warning

Hi six_L,

Thanks.

Hi,ognil

The Downloading file works fine now.

The Ribbon UI looks pretty.

Thanks you.

Perfect! Thank you.

six_L,
Due to lack of free time, I used a forum software package that took me about an hour to build, instead of creating a normal website, which would have taken me several days, including meeting the WCAG accessibility requirements for people with cognitive disabilities.
My MASM64 forum works just like a normal website, without members and is completely free, without https://, without a domain name and with a free hosting plan.
