Chromium browser

The official version of Chromium browser is a web browser developed by Google. The official version of the Chromium browser is based on other open source software, including WebKit and Mozilla, with the goal of improving stability, speed and security, and creating a simple and efficient user interface.

Function introduction

1. The Chromium browser uses an additional Loader to store the configuration files and program files in the same folder, which is suitable for people who carry USB flash drives or frequently reinstall.

2. You can set the browser as the default browser through "Set Default Browser.EXE". And after setting, you will not lose the settings when you call the browser anywhere. And can create desktop and program menu shortcuts. However, after setting the default browser, the folder where the program is located cannot be renamed or deleted;

3. Optimized browser configuration. Some commonly used browser plug-ins are attached. Some of these plug-ins are disabled by default and can be enabled at any time if needed.

4. You can quickly delete all browsing records and personal information of this browser through a batch file "Clear all personal information and custom settings.bat". to be re-customized and distributed to other users.

5. Loader is written in C language. Minimize the generation of junk files and resource usage.
