True. But why use the same extensions on a smartphone that you use on a desktop or laptop? Then set browser tasks specific to phone versus computer. But I also say that while being the ONLY person I know over the age of TWELVE that does not own a phone.

Depends on your definition of "data".

This type of discussion very easily falls into the same type of "surface discussions" here at MSFN that if we get too "detailed" or provide actual "links", then we break MSFN Forum Rules. MSFN does not promote violating Software License Agreements yet MSFN does allow "surface discussions" on things like POSReady and extended kernels. It's a very fine line. MSFN does not promote violating Software Terms. There are, however, "Fair Use" clauses (I may have the wrong "legal term", but you still get the gist) whereby you ACCEPT the Software Terms but OPT OUT of the sharing of non-personal information. This OPT OUT is often such fine print that the average consumer is completely unaware that they even CAN "opt out". I have not read the Softwware Terms for Ghostery and make no claims on how its Software Terms are worded. I would claim that most of us here at MSFN are well "above average" consumers so as far as "surface discussions" go, I will add this - If you BREAK your dependency on the Chrome Web Store (ie, use Ungoogled Forks) and download archived .crx files instead, that .crx is just a .zip file - open that .crx and you can see everything!

That's because if you download from the Chrome Store, then you have a browser that enables a persistent cookie and yes, that cookie does send data back without requesting permission. If you use any browser that mimmicks Ungoogled Chromium, then this data link is disabled and now you have to manually create that data link. No privacy-conscious consumer should ever use any non-ungoogled Chromium fork, in my humble opinion.

You should not need to check Developer Mode to drag-and-drop on the Extensions page.

Added note to top of first post regarding number of characters in sub-folder name.

Correct, links are down for rebuild 7 due to space needed for rebuild 8 -- https://msfn.org/board/topic/184515-arcticfoxienotheretoplaygames-360chrome-v1351030-rebuild-8/ I will upload ALL versions one of these days to Internet Archive (including past v11, v12, and v13 builds). Unsure when I will be able to do that.

Thanks.

But what I still cannot grasp, as far as timelines go, did Google "create" this Googlism, or were they just the first to be able to "render" what a THIRD-PARTY "CONSORTIUM" created? edit - my frame of reference is the automotive industry. here in the US, it is often Federal Mandates that come FIRST, then YEARS later is the "widget" created to meet that Mandate.

I should be able to do this one of these weekends.

Doh! Didn't even dawn on me, thanks for the clarification.

Are you sure? There's only 7 bits there instead of 8.

Here are some .dll's to try (they of course need renamed to chrome.dll but I know you know that). These are "no-translate" versions of chrome.dll. #6 may be the most revealing - it rebases "away" from the ORIGINAL address only to rebase "back to" the ORIGINAL address. #4 is rebased to the same address as that used in rebuild 7. Please let me know how these do for you and many thanks in advance, this will prove VERY helpful. .7z (236 MB, six different .dll's to try) -- https://www.dropbox.com/s/7augkeqjb00wwkr/chrome-dll.7z?dl=1

Okay, one minute, I'll upload a few chrome.dll test cases. Your situation is perfect as a means to improve the overall product.

Interesting. I see that you are running three instances of 360Chrome and Dr. Watson only triggered on the multiple instances. I do not have Dr. Watson has part of any of my XP installs so about all I can suspect is that this is due to rebuild 8 being rebased at a different address then rebuild 7. Which version are you using (webgl, translation, skin)? I can upload a chrome.dll that is rebased at a different address and see if that solves your Dr. Watson trigger.

I was afraid that might happen. Until I can change all the names, you should be able to right-click and select Save-As and then change the name. Also, save to a directory as close to the root directory as possible, avoid adding too many characters to the path name. I've never liked the default "C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\My Documents\Downloads", already at 60-some characters.

Your chrome.dll file needs "rebased". If you upload your chrome.dll and provide a link to that upload, I will "rebase" it for you and send it back to you.

No. There is an intermittent "flash" where the default LIGHT background is presented and then "quickly changed" to dark. It doesn't change "fast enough" and I will never associate my name with that "flash" - it induces migraines and seizures to some folks.

You are bumping it constantly. So be warned, you can be banned from MSFN for doing this kind of IMPATIENT bumping of your topics.

I direct you to Forum Rule 2.a. 2.a Use some common sense. Do not create identical topics or make identical posts in more than one forum. Think before posting and choose the right topic for your question or answer. Do not "bump" newly created topics until at least 24 hours have passed. If a topic has been "bumped" three times without any new replies, please consider reviewing and editing your original post and adding any information which you think may help other members in answering your question(s) or concern(s). When posting, have something to say, not just "My First post!" or "Cool site!!!" We sort of have the idea by now. :-)
