Chrome 71 is a web browser developed by Google Inc, available for download in full install version for Windows platforms from legacy sources. This version of Chrome was officially released on 2018-12-04 for public access and a brief summary of important updates and change log pertaining to this edition can be read below.




Google Chrome 71 released



Google Chrome 71.0.3578 was built on Blink 537.36 layout engine using JavaScript V8 engine version 7.1.302. This version is released for Windows, iOS and android versions and has number of fixes and improvements.


For Windows, Mac, and Linux desktop users, you can update to the latest version of Chrome by going to Settings -> Help -> About Google Chrome and the browser will automatically check for the new update and install it if available. Mobile versions will be released in the upcoming weeks.


Though the code change was recently submitted for Chrome 72, the dark mode feature might not show up on the same. This is due to Chrome 72 already considered to be branched and set for release on January 29, notes the report. This means that the company might release the feature in Chrome 73, which is slated to be released on March 12, according to reports.


Google has announced its newly-released Chrome 71, the latest version of its web browser, is now rolling out for Windows, Mac and Linux operating systems (OS), which aims to keep deceptive websites off.


For those unaware, there are several different builds of Chrome that Google uses to slowly test and roll out new features. All code changes begin in Chromium and then work their way from Canary to Chrome Dev to Chrome Beta to Chrome, the stable version released to all users roughly every six weeks.


Incognito Mode in Canary, a developer build of ChromeWe're not entirely sure if Dark Mode will make the cut for Chrome 72, which has already been branched and will likely be released in mid-to-late January. Chrome 73 will likely follow in March, so it looks like early 2019 either way.


It has been nearly two months since Chrome 71 was released, and per Google's usual six-week schedule, Chrome 72 is now available on desktop and mobile platforms. This release doesn't have many user-facing changes, but there are plenty of security improvements and new features for developers.


A new version of Google Chrome Portable Stable has been released. Google Chrome Portable is a web browser that runs web pages and applications quickly. The latest Beta and Dev builds are also available. It's packaged as a portable app, so you can take your browsing experience with you and it's in PortableApps.com Format so it can easily integrate with the PortableApps.com Platform. It's partially open source freeware for personal and business use.


The old versions of Chrome before V58 are packed as 7zip self-extracting executable. Just run the executable and extract the files under any folder on your hard drive. Then launch Google chrome with chrome.exe under the extraction folder. After V59, the archived chrome old version files are official Chrome offline installers. Just uninstall any current version of Chrome first and then run the downloaded installer. It's a one-click installer without any interactive UI.

Download the one you need, run the executable and extract the files on your hard drive. Simply launch Google chrome with chrome.exe under the extraction folder.

Over the Fourth of July weekend, Google released a patch for a high-severity Chrome zero-day vulnerability. The vulnerability is being exploited in the wild and affects Google Chrome and other chromium-based browsers. The heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability is found in the WebRTC (Web-Real-Time Communications) component.


As of Chrome 71, which was released in October 2018, when you hover over a Live Expression result that evaluates to a node (as is the case with document.activeElement), DevTools highlights the node in the viewport.


On latest endeavouros install, this package isnt working properly, the windows is unreactive and cannot browse anything. After many attemps to solve this issue, luck helped a little.After installing brave from AUR, it seems it helped google-chrome to run.


The adCenter team recently released some features aimed at improving Advertiser Time-Efficiency. These features are live right now, though they may not be officially announced at the time this post is published.


Just tried this out. Linked from Chrome to a google drive pdf. Link working fine. Then edited the pdf in Goodreader on my iphone and synced up the changes. Now the original evernote link no longer works. It seems that the edited file has a different google file link and so the evernote link is broken. This works fine on Dropbox by the way. Presumably its a google issue? 2ff7e9595c
