    FWIW the emojis on Instagram comments are still just boxes on Google Chrome 49, so I guess that can't use the added font that 360Chrome can use.
  2. Dave-H
    Except on Firefox 52.9, but I guess that's because it's Mozilla!

    I tried both versions of the font you uploaded to Mediafire, but neither seem to be any better than the one I've already got I'm afraid. With both of them the Instagram and YouTube icons are still indistinct and in black and white. Looking at your naming, do they actually only work with Twitter icons?

    I think that messing with hacked system fonts is asking for trouble, but getting the emojis back was simply a matter of adding one font which didn't exist at all on the operating system by default, and I'm quite happy with that. I'd rather see the emojis, even in black and white, than rows of empty rectangles.

    Personally I'm not too worried about emojis in title bars and that sort of thing, especially if it gets into hacking around with system fonts. Having the emojis back in the Instagram and YouTube comments through adding the extra font from Windows 10 is good though, even if they are only in black and white!

    Our posts crossed again I think! The second of those keys, the one I mentioned too, is indeed Microsoft Sans Serif, the IE one is Tahoma.
  7. Dave-H
    I suspect it might be the system font that's set in the 'MS Shell Dlg' entry in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\FontSubstitutes.

    I changed 'Palette Title' to 'Tahoma' again with 360Chrome closed, now with no registry entries. When I ran it, the registry entries came back, and 'FontFamily' still says 'MS Sans Serif'. So if it is following one of the system theme font settings, it isn't that one, at least not on my system!
  9. Dave-H
    That seems to have done the trick, the keys are now disappearing when 360Chrome is closed. How strange that they should have been stuck there before.
  10. Dave-H
    I'm not seeing that behaviour at all I'm afraid. This is what I see in the registry when the machine first boots, without ever having run 360Chrome. Starting it and stopping 360Chrome makes no difference, the registry entries stay exactly the same.
  11. Dave-H
    Ah, I did wonder why it wasn't in the place stated, I didn't realise it was different on your version, but that makes sense now! I'm sure that 360Chrome was closed when I changed the system theme font setting, but I can try again (tomorrow now!) That registry setting does not disappear for me when 360Chrome is closed. Is it just the font family setting which should disappear, or others as well?
  12. Dave-H
    I can confirm that. The flags now work, but all the emojis are faint and indistinct. That is really noticeable on the Instagram comments, where they are much smaller, some now are barely readable. I tried changing the system 'Palette Title' from MS Sans Serif to Tahoma, but the registry entry for 360Chrome did not change.
  13. Dave-H
    If I change that registry value to anything else, it always reverts to 'MS Sans Serif' when I restart the browser. I think it is just the system font, and I can't see any way in the browser settings to change the font used by the browser UI, only the size of it.

    I do have the 'MICROSS.TTF' file after all, I just hadn't identified it as being that font. It can't be replaced because it's protected. I'll try substituting the file with @Humming Owl's modified version when I'm booted into Windows 98, renaming it with the original name, to see if that makes any difference. There is a copy in the System32 folder as well as the fonts folder, should I replace both of them or will 360Chrome only use the one in the fonts folder anyway?
  15. Dave-H
    Yes, that explains it, as my system theme font setting is 'MS Sans Serif'. Strangely, I can't find 'MS Sans Serif' specifically mentioned as an installed font. There is 'MS Reference Sans Serif' (REFSAN.TTF), is that it?
  16. Dave-H
    Got it thanks, so if I just install that, without changing the file name, it will replace the system 'MS Sans Serif' font? That font is used in lots of places IIRC, so I will certainly make sure that the original is backed up so I can restore it if necessary! I'll let you know how it goes.
  17. Dave-H
    Yes, ArcticFoxie's non-unGoogled version.
  18. Dave-H
    My 'FontFamily' registry value says 'MS Sans Serif'. Is that why changing the SimSun font isn't apparently doing anything?
  19. Dave-H
    Well I've tried replacing the default SimSun font with both of the offered patched versions, and I can't see any difference at all in 360Chrome. There are still just vertical lines where the emojis should be in the tab labels. Perhaps it isn't quite a simple as that!
  20. Dave-H
    Thanks, I never noticed that! No problem, I see from the above that this could indeed apply to the title bar now I know that it's possible to have it!
  21. Dave-H
    Understood!
  22. Dave-H
    I'm sure you're right, but it would still be good to know exactly what's being talked about!
  23. Dave-H
    That's a shame, as I've always found it very convenient to just click the tray icon if I want to examine the console output, and then just click the icon again to hide it. I seem to remember that I could do that with ProxHTTPSProxy's tray icon when I had it installed before, but that may well have been because I was using a utility called 'TrayIt!' to put the icon into the system tray in the first place. It's so long ago now that I can't remember exactly how I did it!
  24. Dave-H
    I'm a bit confused here (not for the first time!) Are we actually talking about having emojis in the 360Chrome title bar? I didn't think 360Chrome had one! Do we actually mean the address bar (in URLs), or perhaps on the tab labels?
  25. Dave-H
    Looks great! As #11 and #12 are enabling or disabling the same thing, I'm wondering if maybe that would be clearer if they were just labelled 'system-wide proxy on' and 'system-wide proxy off' or something like that? Also, does clicking the system tray icon toggle the console on and off as it does on HTTPSProxy? Thanks very much for this, it will make a huge difference.
