I will *not* be keeping any Supermium builds - at least not yet, I'll try future builds, but none to date will work on my system - NONE. While real hardware is the goal here, tyr Supermium in a VM. Not sure why it should matter, but it does! Run Supermium in a VM and you WILL throw your computer out the window, throw the keyboard out right behind it, flush your mouse down the toilet, and take your printer outside and hit it with a baseball bat. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9wsjroVlu8 1

I already linked to a possible fix. https://msfn.org/board/topic/185045-supermium/?do=findComment&comment=1264207 3

Dave-H Posted April 26, 2024 Posted April 26, 2024 Has anyone tried using the chrome://flags/#ungoogled-thorium flag? If so, are there any downsides to it?
NotHereToPlayGames Posted April 26, 2024 Posted April 26, 2024 Sweet! I hadn't even noticed that Thorium may be our first post-360Chrome-v86 for XP that is UNGOOGLED. Will definitely try it out this evening or so.

Does not work! It is labeled as a "work in progress" but it doesn't seem to be doing ANYTHING that an UNGOOGLED browser should do. Easy test, with no open tabs, clear your cache and then go to clear it a second time. An UNGOOGLED browser will NEVER show this after you just cleared your cache and you've not yet visited ANY web site PLUS this is with a profile that HAS NO EXTENSIONS. A Chrome-based browser that is NOT "ungoogled" has a CONSTANT line of communication "open" with the Web Store. 1
Dave-H Posted April 26, 2024 Posted April 26, 2024 I thought at the very least it would have removed the 'You and Google' page in the settings!
NotHereToPlayGames Posted April 26, 2024 Posted April 26, 2024 (edited) Official Ungoogled Chromium will still have that settings page but the sync, sign-in, and URL telemetry options are removed completely. Official Ungoogled still offers - 1) "Improve search suggestions" (this is technically only a "Google" thing if your default search engine is Google and you "want" the so-called search "suggestions") 2) profile name, color, and avatar 3) import bookmarks and settings Edited April 26, 2024 by NotHereToPlayGames 1
XPerceniol Posted April 26, 2024 Posted April 26, 2024 From a complete shut down and start up the computer to load only Windows XP with very limited services and no "real-time" antivirus - Thorium takes 31 seconds to load, once that is over and I do something else, the browser loads just fine in a reasonable manor. Again, rebase the dlls; no?

And if so, is the command line still like it was for 360 Chrome - rebase.exe -b 10040000? Thank you I really don't know what the heck I'm doing most of the time and largely going by faulty memory and a very long time ago (and I'm not talking about computer memory either) EDIT: I'm currently using Rebase V6.0.6001.17129 (longhorn.080104-1910) ?
NotHereToPlayGames Posted April 26, 2024 Posted April 26, 2024 Rebasing .dll's will NOT prevent that "first launch" startup delay. I have ALWAYS had this delay! ALWAYS. Even in 360Chrome on XP. Even in Ungoogled Chromium on Win10. 1

Oh well, at least the presence of that flag I hope shows an intent by the developer to eventually produce an Un-Googled version of Thorium. Let's hope it becomes a reality soon for those who want it.
NotHereToPlayGames Posted April 26, 2024 Posted April 26, 2024 On my XP x64, rebasing 360Chrome .dll's actually MADE MY FIRST LAUNCH TIME WORSE. So I actually NEVER rebase my .dll's! 1
XPerceniol Posted April 26, 2024 Posted April 26, 2024 Ok thank you very much @NotHereToPlayGames ... appreciate your advice.
