it seems these are somewhat all called somewhat "user agent (UA)" for the normal UA a function is offered by the browser in this case supermium then somewhat it either talks about java offering these values or HTTP both are controlled by the browser either way it is very likely they access the same data just with a different request form (that has to be in the browser) why would there be a problem to find where these strings maybe values are stored ? they dont look very different to me: https://browserleaks.com/client-hints#client-hints-description then you already find a description (and unlikely a plugin you have the source-code - something far beyond a plugin) https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/NavigatorUAData/getHighEntropyValues navigator.userAgentData .getHighEntropyValues ([ "architecture", "model", "platformVersion", fullVersionList", ]) then somewhat "Low entropy hints" https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Guides/Client_hints they are part of HTTP thats a old protocol for webbrowsers microsoft offers this code in short: userAgentData.getHighEntropyValues(["platformVersion"] then: majorPlatformVersion = parseInt(ua.platformVersion.split('.')[0]); (ua probaly mean user agent - while this is going into majorplattformversion) (this makes it move to majorplattformversion) then: if (majorPlatformVersion >= 13) https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/web-platform/how-to-detect-win11 "User-Agent Client Hints (recommended) - Sec-CH-UA HTTPS header navigator.userAgentData JavaScript method" "User-Agent string (legacy) - User-Agent HTTPS header navigator.userAgent JavaScript method" so the 2 java methods are: navigator.userAgent and navigator.userAgentData

but that is not some kind of joke ? why would it be a problem to changes a few lines of code if (has_unwanted_user_agent) close_connection(); if (has_unwanted_client_hints) close_connection();

first : did you change the client hints (all)? second : why would someone cloudflare whatever not use both (user agent, and client hints) - sounds the most simple solution to me third: its not possible to hide it some outside java.dll or something. the executable/browser/chrome has to give that values to the next engine (whatever it is winhttp, winsock, maybe something else? - nobody cares) if this would not be the case every chrome version could not give it to something next so it must be in chrome itself - its rather about finding where these values are handled - and then being changed forth: you have shown a nice skill, why it actually would fail on something like this ? you litterally got the code around and the compiler search functions can find something like this - the rest is about compiling and testing (there are test websites also for the last part)

ok then just change these too, they are probaly some strings somewhere you have the source code you probaly can search its connections, my computer is not very fast chrome in v110 or something already took 2 weeks to compile - but with a compiler and compiled i could certainly change these, so i think you can do this too

we have to be more specific then https://www.useragents.me/ https://deviceatlas.com/blog/list-of-user-agent-strings these are suppose to be changed rightly not just one of them, what ones are missing? if the client-hints are missing why they are not changed either way? https://browserleaks.com/client-hints

wasnt there a user agent switcher ? j7n talked about it quite often - or why it cant be changed - it actually has to be somewhere in the code

about that one if its not a event problem, how about a debug version - chrome compiles slow for me like 2 weeks but advance debug information should show where this come from

https://msfn.org/board/topic/186953-supermium/page/151/#comment-1287479 windows offer functions for directorys often they are sniffed together they offer like C:\ - (rootdrive) C:\windir - (aka C:\windows) the others are then sniffed together like C:\windows + \spool = C:\windows\spool %windir%\system32\DllCache = C:\windows\system32\DllCache ExpandEnvironmentStrings is a such core function a other is SHGetSpecialFolderPathA https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/processenv/nf-processenv-expandenvironmentstringsa https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/shlobj_core/nf-shlobj_core-shgetspecialfolderpatha %ProgramFiles% (probaly like rootdrive (c:\) + (Program Files) = c:\Program Files %ProgramFiles(x86)% for example is not for x86 its a folder for 64 bit OS on 32 bit this function fails %APPDATA% for example is different in XP to win7 but in xp it is C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data with %ProgramFiles%, %APPDATA%,%SystemDrive%,%ALLUSERSPROFILE% and %windir% - you probaly can make all the folders you need also often this strings are often stored somewhere in the registry

to me it tends to have a classical problem the thing with the open source suppose to be free, and allowed to be used by anyone with 1 exception, if the use is commercial but that is not was always has happend at some point like youtube like google - they got buyed or rather this open source thing is not what open source represents anymore so microsoft "buyed(probaly only contributed)" chrome and made edge out of it, youtube is full of ad´s now (while there was not a single ad in the past - how can it work if in the past this worked well ?) also they offer streaming to buy - also not very "past-youtube" like - also the realname must, real email, smartphone ect. so the rather defintion - they switched the side - now they are just a commercial company - like microsoft - microsoft is a good example because they never where open source - open source was a challenge for commercial companys like linux vs microsoft exactly this has happend in all of the past of open source history ... so if they see this "oh well now i like it and we buy it - everything changes" = commercial buisness/company (thus they can always eat up open source - and this is what always has happened) and this is not what open source community was made for it just was : challenge to commercial buisness, free, allowed to use for everybody (and 1 exception for commercial use) now instead just the big companys and the company´s use these things - so by the definition thats what they are now i think thats basicly also the problem - as long they was the elder-definition all of these things did not happen also i want to point out its like a steal they buy it up at some point and then they use it for their purpose so open source has nothing and company has everything - again

interesting since when it works for windows xp ? it once was only win7 i special like this one WebGL hardware acceleration - it suppose to speed up the video playback quite a lot

youtube dont play on that "ISO IE8" either but it opens a website: https://ibb.co/93VK03sm - somewhat it is working - like on many other websites they are not fully functional dont get me wrong im not trying to make IE8 to a IE11 or Chrome v150 so that youtube works tls1.3 directly into IE8 (rather then a proxy - maybe a nice checkbox like it has for tls1.1 and tls1.2) would be a idea but since there is chrome version 150 for windows xp - that would raise questions to do so what i was trying to do it to test out the installer for function, so i looked up that windows update catalog for the biggest of all the upgrades available - and that was the IE8 (blank) installer with around 17 MB size then it seems to have fully functioned - so i tryed out the IE8 - to compare results i have tryed a .iso with IE8 (that one opens at least in parts) it dont seem to be a problem of the installer from me - because in this case the normal IE8 installer from microsoft would have worked so i was wondering what really is doing that difference

its the same result

i have a little problem with it, i dont know so exactly where that problem comes from i have tryed some websites, but only a few are working like theoldnet.net or Toastytech.com then i compared the results for google.com or youtube.com with a common sp3 iso (that has the IE8) here it comes up with a certificate question, then it opens up the website partly functional https://ibb.co/tP2K2nk7 but when i do that with my installer always this happens: https://ibb.co/t10jkBD there is just no certificate warning, it just says always connections failed now the tricky part - to determinate if that can come from my installer - i tryed the orginal IE8 installer from microsoft itself and again just connection failed no certificate questions - so its not a problem of the installer itself then i tryed a certificate upgrade (to be precise this one:) https://www.file-upload.net/download-15599016/rootsupd.exe.html but that also did not do the trick - it just says nothing about certificate´s - just connection failed what im doing wrong ? or what is going wrong here

its nice to have a other chrome for windows xp, seems that i was mistaken i wasnt looking for e3kskoy7wq´s browser because the title just says something about win7 "Firefox and Chromium running on Windows 7 by e3kskoy7wqk" but i tryed it out, it definitely works, the performance looks a bit slower but that is probaly a other discussion i also looked for the v54 i had in mind in the past it seems to be made by TaoKaiZen, where this skia discussion in the past was around https://retrosystemsrevival.blogspot.com/2018/01/advanced-chrome-542065300.html

you can compile it up yourself ? it is open source the link you showed is not for windows XP its for windows 7, its not a chinese version above supermium windows have internal numbers where XP is version 5.1 it came to a lot of changed when gone to 6.0 (vista) 6.1 (windows7) and 6.2 (aka win8 and 8.1), windows 10 suppose to be 6.3 but they called it 10 win7 is not far away from 8 and therefore not far from 10, while going back to xp is a lot more, windows 7 is just a improved vista
