You'll just have to witness it yourself. The WinPenPack prevents (ie, "redirects") those registry entries. But you do have to be "smart enough" to edit the .INI file (and "smart enough" to delete any registry entries already present). I trust that you (smart enough, that is).

We're TALKING IN CIRCLES. I've already mentioned that I do NOT use "installers".

Definitely NOT me! I disable "HW Acceleration" on all of my HWA-capable computers.

Agreed! Same here. Single-core CPU, XP x86, IBM ThinkPad T42. This T42 is on its "last leg", I only keep it around to tune aftermarket turbo's and hex-edit Engine Control Modules. I am in-process of migrating all of my engine tuning software to something else - because one of these days, it is SUPERMIUM that is going to outright KILL this laptop!

I'll hit "run again", walk to fast food down the road, and see if a second run improves. Scratch that. Computer locked up at 100% and I had to unplug the d@mn thing to reboot! Supermium really really REALY hates single-core computers!

XP single-core - 360Chrome [86] == 23.04 seconds Chrome 92 == 15.92 seconds Chrome 108 == 26.52 seconds Thorium == 18.02 seconds Supermium == appeared to lock up at 3.24 seconds, waited anyway, appeared to lock up at 80.99 seconds, waited some more, still waiting, still waiting, 381.74 seconds Granted, I may be behind a version on both my Thorium and my Supermium. And the author of Supermium does explicitly advise not to run on single-core (but this is supposed to be for OLD computers, so I'm running on an OLD computer).

Is that FOUR point eighty? Or NINE point eighty? That font is TERRIBLE.

Can you name such an extension? I use the "X-Chromium" WinPenPack loader and I've never witnessed any extensions writing to the registry. From here: https://www.portablefreeware.com/?id=2169 Then replace the "bin" folder with any Chrome-based browser you want to make portable.

I alwayse use "portable" browsers and the ONE profile has to work on DOZENS of computers. H5EQ isn't the "best" browser-based EQ. But it is one of very few I could find that would work on Core 2 and i7, that would work on XP and 10, that would work in 360Chrome and Ungoogled, ...

All I can tell you for 1,234,567.89% is that none of my Chrome-based browsers make any permanent registry writes and none of them store data "outside" of the PORTABLE LOADER'S "bin" "user" folder.

Wow! Good thing none of the women here at work were standing over my shoulder. HR Crisis averted.

True. I've *never* "installed" any web browser in over 20 years! Too much CRAP used to be "bundled" with browsers so I stopped "trusting" installers a LONG time ago.

Not if you use a "loader" such as WinPenPack or X-Chrome or PAF, they all work for Supermium and Thorium to make them portable with zero registry-writes and fully self-contained folder structures.

No installer is needed for Supermium as a portable. Any Chrome "loader" will work and the "installer" can be extracted with dozens of different extractors. Just because it's an "exe", that doesn't mean you have to "execute" it, lol.

Hint - don't use the forum search feature In google or bing, just include site:msfn.org as part of your search, I assume "all" search engines allow that, these are the only two I use and I know it works for both of them

Easy. By taking some personal responsibility and knowing if you downloaded from an OFFICIAL source or if you just clicked some random link that some random person on some random web site directed you to. Doesn't sound very complicated to me. We used to call it "net savvy". And it is the "net savvy" consumer that has NEVER been hit with malware yet also NEVER runs real-time "protection". We used to also call it "practice safe hex".

Although, I also just saw this. So clearly nothing to do with MyPal 68.

I thought the same thing! I am not a "gamer" so I pretty much basically assumed it to be an ONLINE GAME accessed via WEB BROWSER (ie, MyPal 68 in this case).

I do the same thing. In my case, the "side list" will change depedent on my browser window size.

I have in 360Chrome. But *ONLY* if I listened to "other members" here at MSFN and "removed" the VULKAN files. I never experienced that issue once I stopped "listening" and *KEPT* the VULKAN files. Though in my experience, there were TWO SETS of Vulkan files, one in the root dir and another in a sub-folder. I only needed to keep ONE set (the sub-folder). That said, I have no freaking clue what "Vulkan" is - but I know for a fact that MY SYSTEM REQUIRES these files !!!
