⚠️ Action Required

show_password has been removed. It was on by default, so viewing saved passwords in chrome://password-manager now asks for Windows authentication (Windows Hello or your sign-in password), the same as in stock Chrome. If your chrome++.ini still has a show_password line, delete it. It no longer does anything.

New

• 2ff6ea0 feat!: remove show_password by @Bush2021

  Resolves #295 - On domain-joined machines, Chrome now trusts domain policies again. The show_password hook made Chrome treat these machines as unmanaged, so ExtensionInstallForcelist entries from outside the Chrome Web Store were marked [BLOCKED]: they never installed, and extensions they had installed earlier were removed.

Fix

• e6668a0 fix(appid): map every AppUserModelID Chrome hands to Windows by @Bush2021

  Chrome 157 and later no longer split a pinned Chrome from its open windows on the taskbar. Every 30 days, Chrome rewrites taskbar pins to its own app ID, which moved the windows into a second taskbar group. Pins that were already split rejoin the next time Chrome runs this check, at most 30 days later. Chrome also adds --source-shortcut-location=taskbar to the pin's arguments. This switch is harmless.

  Right-clicking Chrome on the taskbar now shows Chrome's own jump list: New window, New Incognito window, most visited sites and recently closed tabs. Shortcuts that Chrome creates itself also group with its windows.

  Installed web apps (PWAs) now get their own taskbar groups, as in stock Chrome, instead of joining the Chrome group. They also match the Start menu shortcuts and pins Chrome creates for them. DevTools windows still group with Chrome.
