Advanced Chrome

Hello! this happens also using stock google chrome using the command line custom profile feature --user-data-dir="[path to folder]" so this is a google bug, even in some cases the pinned taskbar app gets merged into one, I don't have idea how to fix this, also the method they are using to make chrom...

Welcome! maybe cent browser is using the same extension, maybe cent browser developers took Multilogin source code and included it in their browser with some modifications, they don't have to develop it from scratch if there are so many available.

Advanced Chrome hooks the code before download starts so it will always ask to save, open or discard, once you click save or open it will show on chrome download manager or any download manager extension. In my case, 80% of my downloads are temporary, that means I don't want to keep the files and al...

Have you tried Multilogin extension? there are others even more customizable.

Advanced Chrome could include some kind of recommended extensions list, sometimes people don't even know they can install extensions

Using extensions is the best solution because you can update them without updating the entire browser, also you can check the extension source code and improve it, most of them are fully customizable. Advanced Chrome plus Elite Download Manager is the best mix, It is not included by default because ...

Tracking everything back is hard because they removed a lot of files, doing all in reverse you end here: https://cs.chromium.org/search/?q=dwrite.dll&sq=package:chromium&type=cs that goes to: /src/third_party/skia/src/utils/win/SkDWrite.cpp and the error you are getting is exactly there: static void...

They removed GDI support around april 2016, here is the info:

https://chromium.googlesource.com/chrom ... 310e5c2ec8

Try reverting that commit, I used to revert that specific commit to reenable GDI, since they move the code a lot it won't be easy now.

It's weird you are having problems with DirectWrite because most rendering is made using skia and it is supposed to work fine on XP, I believe there is something else holding you back, I believe the hardest part to make it work under XP is SSL, all the stuff they added for sandboxing and NaCl. What ...

Linux Latest Build 74.0.3860.0
22 - Nov - 2019

Do a checkout for commit a17d3798439660f1b1d4dc6a00eaafdff7425408, that is exactly 74.0.3860.0

Then just extract the file I sent over PM to you, It will build perfectly for windows, you can try building for linux to see how it goes.

Hello welcome to the forum, currently I am a little bit bussy so I haven't been able to start developing advanced chrome for linux, I also need a better browser than vanilla chromium for linux, for me should be easy but being the first linux build probably will have to tweak a lot of code to make it...

Hello Andy, usually stuff stored at windows registry related to chromium will never have 'chrome' or 'google' so the registry key you found won't work with chromium. I can not find on chromium source code any registry lookup for HardwareAccelerationModeEnabled, the variable exists becase thats the w...

Not impossible but plain hard, try this thread

viewtopic.php?f=2&t=2761

DoaJC_Blogger is working on it, I don't know his current status.

Hello, welcome to the forum, building chromium 49 is going to be hard at this time because the enviroment have changed a lot, that means all the old libraries like python 2.7 are no longer online, also will be hard to compile or build v49 because they used visual studio at that time, at some point t...

v55 is still too old, you need v70 for current web tech, there is no point of using v55 right now.

Hello, welcome to the forum, I am working only on latest version of advanced chrome and sadly there is no way to make it compatible for XP, the only person currently trying is DoaJC_Blogger and you can find more info here:

Already submitted the file to several antivirus engines, if you can help submitting the file to other engines the help will be very appreciated. Avast fixed their detection for chrome.dll on advanced chrome 54.20.6530.0: ------------------------------------ Avast: False positive file chrome.dll [ re...

Welcome to the forum, can you try version 74.0.3860.0 under windows 10? new extensions won't work with older 54.20.6530.0

Hello, sadly there is no way to update the XP compatible build, chromium removed XP support long time ago and at this time you won't find a chrome +55 for XP

Hello, check this thread: https://browser.taokaizen.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=2729 You can submit chrome.dll of 54.20.6530.0 to AVG so they can review the file, this must be done for about 16 antivirus engines that flag chrome.dll as a "Trojan.Win32.Enfal" https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/a35...

Sadly there is no way to do that, sorry!

They will all have issues, new extensions use newer javascript that did not exist on older chrome.

Hello! welcome to the forum, I don't follow a specific channel, if you download latest code today it will be something like 75.x and that will be close to chrome canary, if I update advanced chrome today I will always go for latest version (even a bit newer than canary) unless there are problems or ...

Even if you disable sandbox flag, the compiler will still look for all the functions, you have to edit all the code, around 400 files to remove all stuff not compatible with XP.

Sandbox uses kernel functions that XP never had, you will have to remove all of them, It is a nightmare I can't even imagine!

They must have fixed that manually like some kind of hack, most pages need chrome 60+, twitter is a good example on how fast they change the code. Even if they manage to make it work under XP, it will stop working soon, javascript of 60+ is very different and have new functions that never existed on...

Hello, yes will be "easier" but any approach will be close to impossible. You will need to be a very experienced developer, with much better skills than half of the staff of current google team, replacing the sandbox model of newer chrome to an unsafe way for XP won't be easy and probably will intro...

Hello, if you update blink you also need to update V8, you can download the source code and do that but it won't build / compile, you will get millions of errors, the code is very INTERLINKED and any change in blink must match v8, and the renderer SKIA also needs to be updated, so you end up updatin...

They may have a copy of the exact setup they used to build, that means they don't run gclient, they only run hooks when they add new files to source code. runhooks is a script that setups the build environment to be able to build, it is like having only the source code and using a script to create d...

the problem is that gclient does several things like updating some pyton libraries, you need an exact setup of what was used then. So, you run gclient, it updates everything even third party tools, then you use git to roll back, then you leave third party tools updated to latest version so might giv...

My laptop is a lenovo y580, 720p and never had any problem, I like everything sharp like GDI era and for now it works. Also went to a store to check new laptops and LCDs are terrible, maybe using it for a month you might get used to it but that doesn't change they mostly selling cheap displays. I ha...

Once they change the compiler is not possible to compile older code with newer environment or compile newer code with older environment. I did not save the old environment, with visual studio installed is about 35GB and my SSD drive is not too big. Windows with VS2015 and SDK was about 45GB plus chr...

It is because you were on vmware fonts won't display properly, try on real hardware with latest drivers, fonts will improve, everything will.

Have you tried v74.0.3840.0? I didn't like the google tab shape of v70+ and improved it, you might like it.

I am no even close to have the right environment, I have Visual Studio 2017 as per instructions: https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/docs/windows_build_instructions.md To get the instructions to setup the old environment you need to use the way back machine: https://web.archive.o...

Sorry but there is no way to backport newer chrome to an older chrome that works under XP, mostly because v8 security sandbox of newer builds.

If you want to build v49 it will only work with cl.exe and back then they used old visual studio, if you build with ninja or newer visual studio wont work. To succesfully build, the environment must match exactly, C++ compiler is very picky. Also right version of sdk is needed, even depot tools was ...

Well, v54 has v48 on root, that was needed to be able to compile, build's took an hour back then and used microsoft cl.exe, between that time frame they changed to ninja compiler, that single change created tons of problems, actually the code is so 'dirty' that barely works. After that they cleaned ...

For ubuntu you can try: System > Preferences > Appearance > Fonts and make sure "Subpixel smoothing (LCD)" is selected, then press "Details" then choose "Full" under Hinting. For fedora had luck installing msttcorefonts to improve them, this is because sometimes font ttf file is configured with too ...

Yes, It works like some kind of license anyway and is very expensive, as you say they always find a way to save the stream so maybe using simpler and cheaper tech to protect the stream is better even if it's easier to crack, hackers always win anyway, might be better to save money lol

Thanks, I don't have the url, check the antivirus engines main sites to see if they provide a submit page.

Check the virus total report, there are several false alarms.

1.- DRM provides different encryption every session so will be hard for you to decode and save the stream locally, similar handshake of SSH keys and they call it CENC. 2.- They usually "improve" stuff and make "older" DRM unsupported, they believe everyone have latest version of DRM and they never s...

Linux fonts depend on the drivers and sometimes they suck, even there are ways to improve them depending if you have nvidia or ati. I don't like windows 10, maybe at some point I will be forced to install it because windows 7 will start giving problems, I am happy with windows 7 even if it takes a f...

It was positioned as the last available build, it worked fine, not anymore because every day the web changes, the browser is the SAME, the web is not the same anymore, people update their pages to support newer javascript and soon chrome v49 won't even load a webpage.

They changed source code because they changed compiler, they had many "hacks" to make it work and then they removed them to support ninja, then they added new hacks to be able to run ninja.

Will be better to build latest version 72 and make it compatible with XP, many have tried...

Advanced Chrome has many improvements compared to default google version, thats why I developed it, I won't use Google Chrome because of the way it handle downloads, Advanced Chrome exists from version 38 = long time ago, running on XP was a plus but today is impossible since the web is moving forwa...

Hello, XP is not supported for latest version, try using windows 7.

Hi, Pause function is not a feature of Advanced Chrome, you will find is a STOCK feature of regular Google Chrome. Already tested pause function and works properly, network transfer stops when you click PAUSE, to pause you must click on PAUSE on download menu. While the browser asks you to SAVE, OPE...
