Another high-risk V8 vulnerability was disclosed (CVE-2024-4947). For that reason, another release of Supermium 122 has been made. Provided there are no further high-risk vulnerabilities, the next Supermium release will be in mid-June.

Some other changes were made:
-(#573) - lazy composition disabled by default due to isolated rendering bugs on Windows 7/8.1, use --force-lazy-compositor to disable
-(#576) - microphone input now works again on Windows XP
-(#568) - #compact-ui now covers bookmark bar
-(#578) - Supermium uninstaller now available, and shortcut is created in Start Menu/Programs
-(#574) - Screensaver no longer appears when watching videos on Windows XP (and likely Vista as well)
-(#580) - 8px tab strip gap becomes optional, split into --old-tab-strip-bounds
-(#569) - Supermium installer now has commands for silent mode, Use -y --silent combined with a variety of flags to invoke. --system-level installs Supermium to Program Files while another path can be specified using "--path=%PATH%" (there is no "default path" so one of these two flags must be present).
Other flags that can be used:
--install_emoji: installs Segoe UI Emoji
--shortcuts: creates shortcuts
--no_registry_writes: does not write to registry
--ungoogled: enables Ungoogled mode in shortcuts
--classic_theme: enables classic theme in shortcuts

This version of chrome.dll is specifically for Windows 8.1 users experiencing instability with the GPU process. For testing purposes only.
Revised at 19:04 GMT +0 2024-05-20 as the original binary posted here did not produce the intended result.

This release of Supermium was made urgently to patch CVE-2024-4671 and CVE-2024-4761 (#570).

Some other changes were made:
-re-introduction of FTP support
-(#556, #261) Font selection now possible in chrome://settings/fonts on Windows XP again
-(#534) Outline restored to inactive tabs

For users who have difficultly applying flags through the chrome://flags interface, the core "classic" switches can be made part of the Supermium shortcut in the installer, or be used through a script in the Supermium folder named "Supermium (Classic)". Similar options are available for ungoogled-supermium mode, to help ensure that the user does not compromise their privacy by ever opening the browser in "googled" mode.

-Reported Media Foundation screensharing crashes on Windows 10 fixed
-(#441 and others) DirectWrite rendering of PDF documents fixed on Windows 8 and above
-(#307) Rectangular tabs introduced with --rectangular-tabs switch
-Outline around square address bar/Omnibox introduced with --classic-omnibox switch
-(#431, #474) --ungoogled-supermium switch, blocks all involuntary connections to Google, can be invoked in installer-created shortcut. Level of access to Google services is similar to stock ungoogled-chromium
-(#471) Internet Options now accessible from "system proxy settings" button in Settings
-(#477, #498 and others) File dialogs on Windows XP now save with default extension appended, except for "All Files" where no extension will be appended
-(#505) Further optimizations introduced
- --classic-omnibox introduced to reduce rounding of Omnibox elements; --classic-omnibox-border introduced
to provide grey borders
-(#359) --disable-alternate-ds switch removes alternate data streams from downloaded items
-(#507) Loading of very large images with compression rates greater than 99% in certain cases is blocked, especially where the images will allocate hundreds of megabytes of memory (specifically, subreddit icons on modern Reddit).
-(#515) Password manager crash fixed on Windows XP/2003

This is a modified version of Supermium 122 R2 chrome.dll for debugging purposes. Now revised.

The following changes are made in this release:
-File dialog filters fixed on Windows XP
-Crashpad process should now work on Windows XP
-Field trials disabled on Windows XP due to stability issues
-Fixed Noto Emoji font for Windows XP
-Supermium should now start on some Windows XP systems previously unable to start it
-Browser should show up in list of default browsers on Windows 8.1 through Windows 10 1809 - unspecified, undocumented changes to browser registration are complicating matters on Windows 10 20xx and above
-Attempt at fixing remaining Windows 7 freezes

Here are the following changes in this release:

-Renderer stabilization on Windows 7

-A new XP-compatible installer. The installer can optionally create shortcuts and install the Noto Emoji font for emojis to appear on
older operating systems

-Change in base of chrome.dll on 32 bit Windows to ensure reduced memory usage

-Printing should now be functional on Windows XP

-Stabilization of tasks such as 8K video viewing and large downloads from MEGA in 64 bit Supermium

-Improvements in GDI rendering on web pages

-Native tooltips are restored (standard on Windows 7 and below, optional on Windows 8 and above, using --legacy-tooltips-win). This will eliminate issues with the tooltips being hidden behind the window

-Several new flags from ungoogled-chromium:

--max-connections-per-host

--show-avatar-button

--popups-to-tabs

--disable-search-engine-collection

--custom-ntp is updated to feature the bookmark bar by default. The flag --bookmark-bar-ntp can toggle this functionality if the user wishes for it to be disabled.

A new flag to disable the PWA install icon prompt which appears in the address bar on certain web pages:

--disable-pwa-install-prompt

This is a special release of Supermium 121 for debugging purposes only. It contains debugging symbols for important Supermium components.

All regular releases of Supermium going forward will feature distribution of debugging symbols.

This updated version of Supermium Version 121.0.6167.81 includes various fixes that mostly target Windows 7, as well as some backported Chromium features.
-Compositor-induced instability should be eliminated
-Printing should be possible again on Windows 7
-Various UI bugs are fixed. For example, the current tab should no longer be transparent with the Transparent Tabs option. The default tabs are now the current Chromium tabs.
-Improved icon that should no longer display red squares. The logo design itself remains unchanged at this time.
-#hide-sidepanel-button is fixed
-Disabled #power-bookmarks-side-panel is fixed

The hotfix was revised to restore D3D11 support.

-Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 support restored, including x64. Self-extract or use the portable distribution available
through the Supermium Plus Package on https://www.patreon.com/win32 as the regular installer does not work on XP/2003.
A new installer will be developed to resolve the shortcomings of the regular installer.
There should be few caveats compared to Supermium on other platforms, with exception of hardware
acceleration and some issues with printing of web pages.

-New branding and new interface elements, specifically with regards to tabs. Trapezoidal full-sized
tabs are the default, but the following options in chrome://flags can be used to customize the tabs:
#custom-tab-shapes - if disabled, reverts the tabs to the standard Chrome look.
#override-tab-outline-default - black outline enabled by default with trapezoidal tabs, but not rounded tabs.
#override-new-tab-button-shape-default - toggles between rounded new tab button and trapezoidal new tab button.
#compact-ui - reduces the padding of the address bar and the tabs.
#transparent-tabs - introduces some level of transparency to tabs (best with Aero Glass enabled)

-Many new flags from ungoogled-chromium. There are too many to list, but they include:
#tab-hover-cards - disable tab hover cards
#custom-ntp - set a custom new-tab page
#disable-sharing-hub
#clear-data-on-exit

Other flags will be shown in chrome://flags with "ungoogled-chromium" attribution in their descriptions.

-In particular, the flags #disable-encryption and #disable-machine-id now make Supermium user data portable
if enabled. The "portable" distribution will have a launch script with these flags enabled as well as a data
directory in the same directory as the executable.
-The option to restore the download shelf has been restored with the use of flag #download-bubble. to disable the download bubble.
-Flag #power-bookmarks-side-panel has been restored.
-Click-to-Call feature restored.
-GDI offsets in UI fixed. GDI crashes resolved.
-Rendering issues with tooltips and other UI elements should be resolved.

Please note that 2 CPU threads and at least 768 MB of RAM is recommended. We will make attempts to improve
performance on single-threaded systems for future releases.
