Beta Version (44.0.0.0) 64-bit Offline Installer keeps trying to install stable v43.0.7.0. This is getting old quickly. If you can correct it, thx.

Hello, indeed I encounter the same problem.

This is a known pervasive problem. The Developer has excessive airspace between his ears

All laughing aside, I sent the Dev an email to let him know. Give him 12-ish hours in case he is busy with something.

I was able to successfully grab Beta 44 (64) with the online installer

Hello, thank you now it works.

Hello, after updating to Beta Version (44.0.0.0) it deletes the file (.manifest).

Possible to spread the message thank you.

[paticatabg]

Yes, it worked! Thank you.

Hello, after updating to Beta Version (44.0.0.0) it deletes the file (.manifest).

Possible to spread the message thank you.

This is a deliberate part of the installation process. It is replacing the previous Version & program files information kept in the manifest text file with a new manifest file.

Thank you for the feedback, but I confirm that after updating to beta version 44.0.0.0 the *.manifest file and delete which when I restart the PC Slimjet does not want to launch.

I'm running the Portable x64 version.


I fixed the problem by taking the .Manifest file from version 47.0.8.0.

Manifest file that I changed like this:


Name : 126.0.6478.17.manifest

<assembly
xmlns='urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1' manifestVersion='1.0'>
<assemblyIdentity
name='126.0.6478.17'
version='126.0.6478.17'
type='win32'/>
<file name='chrome_elf.dll'/>
</assembly>
