Last release before rebase to Supermium 126. This is a short-term release to serve users dealing with several issues before the rebase is completed within the next ten days, with changes specific to Chromium 126.
Some bug fixes have been applied:
-(#761) Anti-aliasing of fonts now enabled by default, even when system font smoothing is disabled, due to poor visual appearance. To revert this change, use the flag --disable-browser-font-smoothing-win.
-(#722) Black backgrounds no longer appear behind UI elements when DWM is disabled or not available.
-(#720) DirectWriteCore now bundled with Supermium, as well as Noto Color Emoji. Colour emojis and other modern DirectWrite features are now available on Windows XP/Vista/7/8.x, as well as remote fonts, printing, etc. VC++ 2015 runtime needed to use this version of DirectWrite, or else it will fall back to GDI or older DirectWrite
-(#779) UACH now defaults to Google Chrome. It is also possible to disable UACH outright using the flag --remove-client-hints or associated feature as done in older Chromium versions.
-(#733) Installer now places desktop shortcuts in proper locations. Browser is registered in HKCU on Windows 8 and above if installing for a single user. The changes have also reduced the number of AV detections for the 32 bit Supermium installer.
-(#588) Flag --force-generic-download-icons introduced to prevent creation of excess number of processes when viewing download history.
