In Chromodo 42, is there any option “Do not store browsing history, etc…” ?
I’m unable to find this option in Settings. I’m requesting developers to add this option in next release of Chromodo. This will be a very useful option
I’m not referring to this option “Start browser in incognito mode”. The issue with incognito mode is, when the start the browser in incognito mode all plugins/extensions vanish and I’m unable to login to extension
Hey captainsticks,
Indeed, I have a 2560x1440 @ 200% dpi laptop.
Though even if I disable scaling in appcompat, it still crashes.
Why isn’t flash player working on alot of sites? Youtube seems are working fine but still complains that some adobe flashplayer is required to display some elements on the pages.
Hi mike1212,
I found a workaround, on my system at least.
Leave high DPI enabled, but run the program in ‘Vista SP2’ compatibility mode.
Thanks.
Hi and welcome theunbeholden,
Chromodo is now set to use PPAPI plug-ins by default.
Please install PPAPI Flash, see the quote below.
Thanks.
Thanks for your assistance.
Been there, done that.
I cleared the user profile and launched using with the Vista SP2 compat mode only.
The situation is slightly better, at least the program shows up. However, it cannot load any URL, including chrome:// urls
I invariably get an error page. Also noteworthy is how there’s a single chromodo.exe process (no child ones)
When launching, there is also an UAC prompt for Au_.exe asking for feedback on why I would uninstall CC.
EDIT: the following workaround kinda works:
Attach /high-dpi-support=1 /force-device-scale-factor=1 to the command-line, no longer crashes. Unfortunately all elements become quite tiny.
We will add Clear Browser at Exit. This will provide you the solution required.
Your welcome Mike,
Let us hope the information given is enough to help the Developers in finding a solution.
Thanks for your time and help.
Edit: Did you happen to try other compatibility settings, example Win 7 mode?
I tried these steps, but still I don’t see any search box of DDG in the New Tab Page. Apparently only Google and Bing have that option to add search box in the New Tab Page.
Hi tonialb,
A workaround for the new tab page is to add the following extension.
New Tab Redirect-Chrome Web Store
Then under the extensions options add https://duckduckgo.com/ to the redirect URL and save.
Kind regards.
Can anyone confirm this issue I reported here?

Thank you!
Hi captainsticks,
Thanks for the help, but still do not fulfill what I want. ;D I want something simple, without installing extensions, or URL redirects. I think its something than Chrome do not support for other search engines like Yahoo, Ask, Wikipedia etc. Only Google and Bing are selected. Even for Google Encrypted (which actually use), Chrome seems do not support search box.
Hi tonialb,
Go to the DDG homepage and follow the steps in the screenshots.
After clicking ‘OK’ in screenshot 3, continue the instructions 2-5 through Chromodos menu, settings.
DDG will then be used from the address bar as the default search engine.
Hope that helps.

Yes i know this. This is the way how I add DDG search engine to default. But that’s all! What i want is something further. Check these images:
I’m not an expert, but for sure is something inside Chrome’s codes. If you can refer Mozilla based browsers, they have this option for all kind of search engines!
Btw, we’re just discussing, because its not such a big loss!
thanks
one of the very useful extensions is not working in latest chromodo.
data compression proxy
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/data-compression-proxy/ajfiodhbiellfpcjjedhmmmpeeaebmep?hl=en
Every page (except HTTPS which are not compressed) is giving warning (This page cannot be loaded via the Chrome Data Compression Proxy. Try reloading the page.).
Works fine in chrome and canaray
:P0lIs there any chance for PPAPI to still be used. Also you know alot of your web browser use will fall cause of this “security enhancement”; your change will leaving hundreds of thousands of sites behind, because nearly 60%-90% of those sites are still going through the process of changing over to html 5, with the included flash support (which still isn’t updated enough from the people who make the html drafts) and adobe keeps up with their flash, shockwave plugins better than you could with updates to your browsers.
If your getting rid of support for those necessary plugins than you need to have flags for the implementation of those past plugin extensions or update the browsers more often with fixes to the browsers flash problems as they occur, cause if you can’t then alot of us will keep the older version so that we can keep our plugins to view our favorite or needed web pages. :P0l
Hi milldogtjm,
PPAPI plugins are now supported by default, for PPAPI Flash please follow the instructions in the quote below.
A temporary workaround to enable NPAPI plugins is to type chrome://flags/#enable-npapi into the address bar and enter.
Select enable of the highlighted entry and relaunch the browser.
Note: The above workaround to enable NPAPI plugins will most likely be removed from version 45 and above (Estimate: September).
Kind regards.
Use Google’s extension: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/data-saver-beta/pfmgfdlgomnbgkofeojodiodmgpgmkac
it doesn’t work either… silently (without warning) switches to non-compresed pages (avoids proxy)
also, works fine in chrome (all images are webp, while in chromodo png/jpg)
Yes, sorry, I saw that there were no warnings, and didn’t look further to verify that it worked. :-[
Actually it makes sense that it doesn’t work with other vendors’ browsers: It’s Google’s service (and servers!) for Google’s users (using Chrome). I don’t know what the explanation is that it doesn’t work with other browsers than Chrome. Maybe there is some proprietary code in Chrome that is not in Chromium, or maybe the servers don’t accept other user-agents than Chrome.
To provide this service for their users, Comodo would need to run their own proxy-servers. Opera does that for their users: Off-road.
