ChromiumForWindows 1.5.2
-
Switched to a HEAD request (instead of a GET request) to optimize launch time and network usage - Thanks to stevennyman
-
Fixed killing Chrome processes during update - Thanks to stevennyman

Simplified the code
Please, if you are updating ChromiumForWindows, uninstall the old version in Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features and remove C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Local\Chromium\versioninfo.txt file.
If you are using ChromiumForWindows-ungoogled, you will have to delete everything in C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Local\Chromium\ except the "User Data" folder, if you want to update in the future, for now
Sorry for the inconvenience, but I can't make the Third Party Installer to do that.
It will be fixed when my Material UI Installer is ready. 🙂
Also working hard on a project to have the abilty to choose your release. (eg.: stable, raw, ungoogled...)
I know.. These recent Releases are just like updating Chromium manually, but now the installer is far from my original idea. When I started this project I only wanted to make myself a background Chromium updater & launcher. Now it has a juicy UI and a lot of improvements to make it more faster, nicer and optimized. If I can achive to fix the current opened GitHub issues, I won't make a bunch of Release. But now... It's still in Beta. 😁
