I am using Discord for web on 360ChromePortable_11.0.2031_rebuild_5 if that helps you and can definitely recommend it :)

Ahhhhh my dude! I was shocked to see someone mention 'COMODO Firewall' as this is what i hinted before where i said i had a firewall that i basically have to 'allow' any program that wants to launch another process/program etc' if something tries to open something else/etc' Been using COMODO Firewall Pro + NOD32 for so long..... never heard of WiseVector StopX tho, so ill look it up seeing you have a fine taste in firewalls kind sir. thanks for letting me know about it!

mhm, Interesting... i've never had any issues with uninstalling anything before, but i'll trust you on it not being as 'easy' apparently.... so ill make sure to grab the uninstaller and follow those steps if when i decided to uninstall it. if it really doesn't 'stick' after i simply remove it as i do all program from the 'Add and remove programs' default way. My plan wasn't to do anything so far anyways as i stated, after all 'updated virus difinitions' of 28.09.2022 are pretty damn good for quite a while more, even for years if u know what you're doing in my eyes. but i might in a few months give that 'Avast antivirus' a try so to say, tho i honestly even thought to first install it without removing NOD32 and see if it updates and i like the UI/etc' and only then uninstall/get rid of NOD32 for good. if anything my 'officially license' (which i can literally do nothing with now lol should have been till early December) so i figured at the very least i won't even try Avast till then

Unfortunately starting from TODAY (a few hours ago to be exact) it is no longer possible to update ESET NOD32 Antivirus on xp :'( they gave an 'End of life' to all versions up to 9 included, which coincidentally is the latest working version on XP. I've been using (and still am) NOD32 for so long now... in the past i even used version 5 or 6 till that one End of life'd/stopped updating... and today unfortunately 9 did was a good run and silly of them to do it to begin with honestly... this afternoon i still updated up to: 26000 Sep-28-2022, 10:38 CEST (UTC/GMT +02:00) which according to their website (https://www.virusradar.com/en/update/info/) has 2 more already after that... but i REALLY doubt that not having updates can really harm you with an 'almost' up to date one like 26000 for even years to come.. specially if you also have a FW installed that regulates what processes/programs get permission to run what else (like literally not a single program/file can execute another or do anything major without me approving it to before it does it) But yeah, thought ill note it down and give the update that ESET NOD32 shat the bed and knowingly that their version 9 is the latest one working on xp, added it along with the previous ones of their 'End of life' ones. they could have easily kept it updating for a few years without much hassle... oh well.

Yeah that's what i figured... i doubted there will be any 'ram change' per se from rebuilds... just probably 'better support' for something/site specific if some sites change something that maybe in a higher build works better? haven't really had this issue and all works as it did when i first started using v11, i just don't really 'keep it open' due to the ram thingy (god i wish windows xp didn't have that 3.48gb limitation sometimes lol) thanks for confirming it to me tho! guess i won't bother upgrading to the higher build till really 'needed'

Hey @NotHereToPlayGamesI have a probably pretty silly question... but since there are no logs or any references for 'updates' or what changes so to say that i found... i had to ask it: What would be the difference between the 'rebuilds'? for example, I've been using Mypal 29.3.0 still as my main browser on xp (even with it being basically the 'latest' till and if feodor does something else and with it already having some issues with certain sites) However, your v11 has been a godsend to help with those few sites that mypal can't handle or handles poorly. However, i've seen been using 360ChromePortable_11.0.2031_rebuild_5, so rebuild 5.. and i've seen the 'latest' is now 9. so i had to wonder what changed? should i bother to update it to rebuild 9? Honestly my biggest complain about v11 is that overall as something 'to keep running' it quite a challenge? i guess that's the word im looking for as it eats memory like nothing else, and even if u don't open many tabs but like 2-3 you can already see it eating and not letting go even if u close those over again. something that with 'mypal' i find super controllable/manageable. I guess my biggest hope that maybe rebuild 8 is better than 5 in that regard? well one can dream :D but figured i'd ask regardless

I'll share my results, XP 32bit (x86 right?) SP3 on an Intel i3-2120, doing the https://browserbench.org/Speedometer2.0/ : v11.0.2031_rebuild_5 (The one i use now almost exclusively.. used to use v12 for discord but unnecessary as it's back working on v11 now, and v13 i use just for one specific chrome app called web2epub so no point checking it) - 46.67 ± 0.20 Detailed Results Iteration 1 46.23 runs/min Iteration 2 46.95 runs/min Iteration 3 46.93 runs/min Iteration 4 46.65 runs/min Iteration 5 47.00 runs/min Iteration 6 46.62 runs/min Iteration 7 46.52 runs/min Iteration 8 46.84 runs/min Iteration 9 46.73 runs/min Iteration 10 46.27 runs/min Arithmetic Mean:46.67 ± 0.20 (0.42%) here is this test on Mypal 29.3.0 which i still use as my main browser (and only v11 on the sites that run better there or require it) : 18.8 ± 0.61 Iteration 1 16.65 runs/min Iteration 2 19.74 runs/min Iteration 3 18.49 runs/min Iteration 4 18.82 runs/min Iteration 5 19.09 runs/min Iteration 6 18.84 runs/min Iteration 7 18.53 runs/min Iteration 8 19.36 runs/min Iteration 9 19.45 runs/min Iteration 10 18.82 runs/min Arithmetic Mean:18.8 ± 0.61 (3.2%) Honestly? not surprised to see v11 do so much better... after all it runs all the sites that mypal fails, let alone does some better/faster.. this test just sorta made it clear and obvious

@ArcticFoxie Good news! what i hoped would happen happened! and now Discord for web works on v11 \o/ As i thought it was some change on discord's end that they fixed... (tho weird it always worked on v12 and above)

And been using it since like around that time? maybe even earlier? i remember there was some per-official release i used for years too

Wow really? Discord is like what replaced 'reddit' pretty much, while reddit being what replaced 'forums' in popularity. Basically discord is like a thing that each can have their 'own' (for a site... group... person... etc') and each discord can have a bunch of sections like 'sub-forums' and u can post text/talk via voice and post gifs/etc' it's like super popular and have been forever... surprised u never heard of it hehe

that is just the website. it serves no purpose if u just go to 'discord.com' the entire point is to use the 'web version' which is the link i provided.. which u will see does not work in v11. but does in v12.

Yeah it literally just started today.. for the few days/week since i started using ur 360 chrome v11 it worked fine. it does work in v12 tho... so other than that, i still hold the hope that if it is on 'discord side' and since it just started today.. it might be 'self fixed' if they broke something/fix it? i know it's a long shot.. but one can hope Oh also regarding the guy above.. i just press Esc with an unverified addon i use, yeah it's annoying.. but not that annoying that i can't click a button to remove it

oh also @ArcticFoxie not sure if it's important.. but figured i'll let you know on 'why' i decided to have v12 on the ready too now... unfortunately as of today, Discord for web (the only option to use Discord on xp) stopped working on v11.... that is even before i updated it (used rebuild 4 before, now updated to 5 but it's still the same thing happening) basically, when u go to https://discord.com/channels/@me you get a blank page, similar to about:blank with the tab icon still saying 'Discord' and having the icon of it.. but somehow failing to load the page/open it. it worked fine until today (yesterday even) so i'm quite curious what changed (probably something on discord's end?) Anyways i unpacked and got v12 on the ready to use it 'only for discord' , as i compared v11 , v12, and v13.5 (no point in comparing v13 as they are pretty much the same) and pretty much as i thought... v11 is the best in terms of 'less heavy on memory useage' with v12 being the second best and v13.5 just being 'heavy' with a bunch of other Proccesses/features opening with different sites/webpages to really hammer down the memory usage and making it heavy + 'only if you HAVE TO' sorta deal. So it seems like it is v11 for 'youtube/twitter/other sites i wanna run faster than with mypal' for me now, and v12 just for discord, while having v13.5 ready 'just in case' i need something that doesn't load/work properly with either... (for example one addon requires chrome 80+ so both 11/12 fall short in that regard, v12 by so little lol... 78? f***.)

Gotcha. thanks :) that makes it easier

One small question @ArcticFoxie , if you 'update' a version, like if a new v11 is out etc' , what's the easiest way to just 'move' your previous used v11 settings (like profile/addons/bookmarks and all) to the new one? just copy the profile as i've been doing thus far (The Default folder)
