  1. Like prefs, this is a self generated file. It's meant to speed up startup, I reckon, including parts of your browsing story, your extensions, and preinstalled addons (the ones that mozilla puts in), including preinstalled search engines. I dont' mind slow startups (they're fast in mypal68, anyway), so I rebuild my profiles from scratch on every restart. Having edited search.json.mozlz4, addonStartup.json.lz4 and places.sqlite doesn't avoid "reinstallation" of those mozilla sprouts of chromism.
  2. If you use canvas blocker and/or a combination of canvas.poisondata and resist.fingeprinting, you are basically guaranteed to have a unique fingertprint, every time you visit sites like that. The opposite that TOR, that's the intent. If you are not using any of the above, you should.
  3. Unfortunately no. It's something with my settings. Thanks!
  4. Oh my. And me thinking that I could avoid the nuisance.
  5. Good to know we are in good hands. The game is what it is.
  6. In mozilla forks, I block access to my fonts, except the ones I whitelist. I hope I can find a way to do the same with chrome.
  7. I don't use AV. At most, test files with Clamwin, or online. But I don't bother much, really.
  8. As per the registry items at HKEY_USERS\S-yourpresonalregistryhive\Software\Theodor2, you can delete them and then they recreated with no value (which I prefer, telemetry wise). I'd personally would like to get rid of the source of it, that has nothing to do with feodoro2, but with mozilla's learning of spyware from chrome.
  9. I also deleted them from extensions.ini. However, on a crash (leading to a rebuild of said items) they comeback. In search.json, they remain hidden (but are there). In extensions.ini they also comeback, active (as seen in about:support). I don't think this is feodoer's making. It is the stock mozilla. I haven't yet found the root for this re-creation.
  10. sometimes I get to install an extensions, but dowloading the next i get restarting the installed extension is gone, and on trying to reinstall, get the same error. Probably a minor glitch. Will try a clean install and add the extensions from there, later modify the settings to my taste.
  11. Well, n a clean install runs as advertized. I'm getting issues installing extensions. Nothing to do with V2-V3, I reckpn, but with the files and forlders I block. Will relax things, try to install, and then harden again. And report, later on dduring the week. Cheers!
  12. I never has such things happen in my set up. In my opinion, operator failure. Don't blame the browser (that only wants to spy to telemetry and "make your browsing better") for faulty system configuration.
  13. I'm giving it i a try. Below report point by point for updates later. 1 Launching in VM: I launched fisrt on VM, monitoring connections, nohting out of the ordinary, but used to @Articfoxie's and @Humming Owl builds I see a few connections to gg sites. No news there on my end. In my first runs, I had to manually copy the entries for my firewall (probably a remaining restriction of some sort I put there when chrome was food for Conan types). I basically copied the very restrictive permissions I had given to 360chrome to chorme115). No upd, of course. 2 Launching with @articfoxie's loader (even though he frowns upon it): I renamed the loader and its corresponding ini to 115loader or so. Unlike 360chrome, Chrome15 complains if I set --gaia-url=0.0.0.0, so I dropped it. All the other stuff remains, no apparent damage done (TBR). See attached file, some paths edited. The apple and gecko suaos at the end are surely wrong, but do not damage yet. Does anyone have the correct apple/gecko ones? 3 To launch 2, I use Chrome115.bat, with which I load settings and files/folders I want to remain unchanged over time, and to prevent chrome creation of spyware placeholders. Marked with selection are those folders where there are real data (the extensions I want to keep unaltered, unless I manually updated them). The rest are empty dirs and extensionless files to prevent the creation of spyware folders or files in profile. Works most o the time. 4. I'm trying to figure out how to install my extensions, a few of them. Now I see what all that talk about V2 and V3 was about. I hope this helps someone, and that it prompts corrections from those who know better. . Cheer! 115Loader.ini 115Loader.exe
  14. Neither do I. What I say is that upon a crash (due to media overload or other reasons) happens, though, on restart, when I care to check, I ussually find breave, mokkej, ddg and qwant back in extensions.ini and search.json.mosl4. Something in the process of recreating these files puts them back in. Normal behavior in modern (or more or less modern browsers). Cheers
  15. Regarding this intel issue (perhaps) and the recent ability some sites have gained to get real set up specs, I caught this "dissapearing" pref every now and then in SP52 (also now in Mypal): devtools.telemetry.tools.opened.version, "{\"DEVTOOLS_OS_ENUMERATED_PER_USER\":\"52.9.0\",\"DEVTOOLS_OS_IS_32_BITS_PER_USER\":\"52.9.0\",\"DEVTOOLS_SCREEN_RESOLUTION_ENUMERATED_PER_USER\":\"52.9.0\"}"); I cauhgt this very rarely, and will blank it out soon and see what breaks in the devtools, if any thing.
  16. Yup. Great tool. Unfortunately. after a few restarts (maybe a crash), the deleted items come back. That is why I keep a backpup of the cleaned up search.json, that I add on every launch to the profile (idem with extension.json (if yo hav a stable set of addons). Cheers!
  17. Archive today (perhaps for ever, but I visited it in a clean profile only recently to harden a sp52 -and mp68 too- from scratch) has a serious look at your canvas. If it is new thing, that may explain it, and pm canvas legacy extension may help. But I don't know, because (again), I hadn't visited the site without hardening the profile first, during the last 5 or so years.
  18. Thank you very much, shelby, I don't use this browser (can't yet), but your suggestions allow me to finally leave behind those funny boxes, here and somewhere else. https://icomoon.io/LigatureFont.zip
  19. Just in case: https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome/archive/v4.7.0.zip
  20. It's gotta be something on my set up. @rereser. Thanks for your help.
  21. Maybe because there is a ring to it, I reckon. Stop embarrassing yourself.
  22. Thank you, rereser, I'll check it out.
  23. Yeah, who is that gorhill? Does he have a PhD? Just in case you take quoting you as an endorsement, LAF. PS: at least check the suggested pages, in the particular one suggested by @Sampei.Nihira there are a few dozen technical reviews.
  24. Hi. This one used to work (perhaps it still does and is my set up). I use the addon singlefile, a lot. Recently, in some pages I started getting the error e-findlast function not found, for example in elciudadano.com
