NotHereToPlayGames Posted December 30, 2021 Author Share Posted December 30, 2021 Haven't tried it myself (I rarely make profile changes based on websites I've never visited), but have you tried either of these flags? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-H Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 2 hours ago, NotHereToPlayGames said: Interesting. Is your E:\ directory a flash drive or a network drive? No, it's a separate fixed disk which is my archive storage drive, where all my pictures and videos etc. are stored. It's connected internally to the motherboard, but via an add-on SATA card. That has never made a difference before, and I can actually use the root of the drive to store downloads, but not the Dump Folder subfolder. E:\Dump Folder is actually also the "My Documents" folder, if that makes any difference. It certainly doesn't to any other programs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E:\Dump Folder... Maybe a dumb question Dave, but any chance the "space" in "E:\Dump Folder" is involved somehow? You might want to try a different folder on E:, one without a space, just for a test.

Dave-H Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 I did think of that, but it would be a bit ridiculous if 360Chrome couldn't cope with that! I had actually already tried using its 8.3 DOS name E:\DUMPFOLD but that made no difference. Further experiments show that I can use the E:\ root as the destination, and a subfolder of E:\Dump Folder as well, e.g. E:\Dump Folder\Test. Works fine, no problem with spaces then. It seems that the only path I can't use is the one I actually want to use! I'm still wondering if it's because it's configured as the system "My Documents" folder. Perhaps 360Chrome doesn't like that for some reason. I should add that E:\ is a FAT32 formatted drive, so there definitely shouldn't be any permissions problems! Setting the download folder to E:\Dump Folder\Test Folder also works. It's only E:\Dump Folder which seems to be "unwritable"! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotHereToPlayGames Posted December 31, 2021 Author Share Posted December 31, 2021 Can anyone find download links for OLDER versions of DcBrowser? I can only find versions 4.0.3.6, 4.0.7.14, and 4.0.7.22 -- and I need something OLDER. Perhaps a 3.0.x.y because the GUI in the 4.0.x.y branch is absolutely HORRENDOUS due to the lack of anyway to disable "DirectWrite". GUI fonts are "squished". Absolutely HORRENDOUS LOOKING on my system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then sorry to quote this ancient post from September: https://off-guardian.org/2021/09/22/30-facts-you-need-to-know-your-covid-cribsheet/ On 9/27/2021 at 6:45 PM, NotHereToPlayGames said: It appears as though you might be comparing my v11 to Humming Owl's v12. My v11 and Humming Owl's v11 both display that "squished in and crowded" font for me. You could have "squished in and crowded" font on this website above - if DISABLED "Block remote fonts" feature in uBlock O. That's why I use "Block remote fonts" feature enabled in uBlock O.

NotHereToPlayGames Posted December 31, 2021 Author Share Posted December 31, 2021 The GUI looks like CRAP! I haven't visited any web page in DcBrowser because the GUI by itself LOOKS LIKE CRAP! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotHereToPlayGames Posted December 31, 2021 Author Share Posted December 31, 2021 Here's the best way to describe it -- https://browser.taokaizen.com/chrome-directwrite/ Again, it's the GUI of DcBrowser, not the font rendering of web pages that you visit, it's the d@mn GUI itself that looks HORRENDOUS to my above average 20/10 vision! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotHereToPlayGames Posted January 1, 2022 Author Share Posted January 1, 2022 (edited) I am officially REMOVING DcBrowser from my To-Do List. Aside from GUI DirectWrite issues (will vary from system to system), it also does not work for American Water (a billpay site that also doesn't work on ANY of Roytam releases [you do not need an account to test, the login does not work on older browsers, not even to tell you that your username/password is incorrect]).
