Chrome Stable channel updated

Google makes it difficult to download the latest version. I went to their website to download the alternative installer, which installs to Program Files directory, and it downloaded the previous version.

Now, I tried to download using a different link, and by prefixing the version number in front of the installer name. Let's see if it will download the latest version.

 

This release now has Peperflash as the default which means it's running in the sandbox with the Untrusted IL.

 

NPAPI is also actived. Do i need to desactive ?
Thanks.

This is becoming annoying. The latest two updates (this one included) removed the extensions from my relative's profile; re-enabled all plugins, including Java.

Did this happen to anyone else?

 

Yes, annoying would be a good word for that, m00n.
Did you report it?
Annoying is also a good word for the printing problem (posted in this thread) that the last update caused me, and continues with this latest build.
I notice that a printing issue was addressed in 21.0.1180.75...

I sincerely hope the next build provides a fix for what I am seeing.
I did report the problem.

 

If you guys like Chrome, then you should try Comodo Dragon. All that Chrome has to offer, with none of the crap, including 1/2 baked "updates". I gave up Chrome as soon as I found Dragon.

 

I've heard this from you before, DB.
Perhaps one of these days your words will sink in.
You've made me want to learn more, that much is true.
Appreciate the input.

 

Hey DBone... question for you regarding Dragon.
Do the webpages all have that red triangle in the lower right corner, along with the authentication pop-up box that appears when you hover over it?

 

Nope, never seen that before.

edit: I see where you found that, at the Comodo forums website. No other web pages ever have that.

 

It's on every page in the Comodo forum.
Or try here.

Updates from Chrome like the one before last are almost enough to drive me away.
Almost.

 

Go to http://www.comodo.com and you'll see it, and on every link listed there.

 

Might as well say it's provided by Comodo, JR.

 

I needed to confirm that Dragon wasn't plastered with that logo crap.

 

Rest assured, it isn't. The only thing you may or may not miss, is the PDF plugin. Dragon doesn't have it.

 

I was just gonna ask you that.
How about a print preview?
And a sandbox?
And extensions?
And bookmark import function?

 

It should have the same sandbox. It's just Chromium reskinned and with a few certificate features added. At one point there were some more significant features in Dragon but Chromium implemented them to the native code.

You lose bundled Flash. You lose the bundled PDF.

Otherwise it works pretty much the same.

 

Seriously, bundled Flash is huge, imo.
Same extensions?
Same sandbox?
Better security, really?

 

The Stable channel has been updated to 21.0.1180.77.

 

Got it, thanks Page!

 

You're welcome, wat!
Looks like a pretty minor update...
