And just out of the blue, KMB just got an unexpected official update yesterday, Aug 1st 2024: https://browser-download.kfsafe.cn/MiniBrowserSetup.exe The Chinese installer (not recommended to execute directly ) the above URI affords is of version 1.0.0.134, has a digital file signature of 20240801 and comes more than two and a half years after previous official release, 1.0.0.127, which was digitally signed on 20211209... I wasn't able to find any changelog for this release; the installer is 7-zip extract-able, thus I verified the app is still based on the M87 Chromium kernel... @Humming Owl, would you please oblige? It told us it's based on Chrome 87... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotHereToPlayGames Posted August 8 Share Posted August 8 Right. I was considering modifying/repacking as a tribute of sorts to Humming Owl. But I have since reconsidered and see it as essentially a "waste of time". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotHereToPlayGames Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 You may be right. But I still stand by my view that modifying/repacking something based on Chrome v87 is still a "waste of time". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I usually go on vacations in Autumn (The Fall, or whatever you call it), but it's just me. I know a lot of folks that do it during the summer. As for the browser, I agree, it's waaay too old. What about the China fork 115, then? Don't remember the exact name. Edited August 9 by Dixel typo 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave-H Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 Surely now you're much better off using Thorium or Supermium on XP. At least they're using relatively up-to-date Chromium versions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotHereToPlayGames Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 I've had better luck with Thorium. Not such luck with Supermium. Both are early in development so time will tell. My remaining XP machines are either dual-core without hyperthreading or Intel Atom processors. Supermium crashes for me on these XP machines.

On the other hand, if that update is honest, could probably help. I remember some sites that didn't work in earlier 36 versions, started to work in the patched 13.5 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
