Vista or older, I stick to JUST keeping Windows 8 going. 

Jody, Vista is the same 6.x as Win8, as soon as he retires Vista, Win8 will follow the same road.

Win10 is another story though.

I still have LTSC 2019 setup, and heavily customized, but I'm putting off using it.  I really enjoy Windows 8.

I'm using his Firefox ESR builds.  They suit me fine.  For now, that is

I tested the new Chromium on Win XP. It runs faster than Supermium. But there are a few things to note.

The RAM consumption bug when C++ is installed can be resolved by adding the corrected_api_sets.zip folder from Supermium. In XP x64, there is enormous virtual memory consumption, and I haven't found a solution.

WebGL is completely disabled, even the software version, which means that websites that require it do not work.

Manifest v2 is available but disabled by default. You need to add the parameter --disable-features=ExtensionManifestV2Unsupported,ExtensionManifestV2Disabled to the shortcut.

To disable the notification that the OS is not supported, add --test-type to the shortcut.

The browser requires a CPU with SSE3.

Browser crash during import fixed in version 144.

Please, as I don't have a GitHub account, can you ask to the developper to remove the code that delete all extensions when you move the portable versions of Chromium and Ungoogled Chromium from one computer to another. 

It's a horrible feature added by Google... 

I'm not sure about that but it seems that even some settings are restored by default with the move.

Tested with Chromium 146.0.7656.0 and Ungoogled Chromium 144.0.7559.59.

Regards

Are you sure that your profile is set up to be portable?  ie, with either a "loader" or something like "chrome++"?
