Hi w33d3r,
As far as I can tell one is the actual viewer, the other is the plugin to activate it within the browser.
Both files are reliant on each other to view PDF documents within the browser without the need for 3rd party PDF viewers.
Kind regards.
Does this version support ‘portable’ installation ?
This is the official version of Comodo Dragon 42 is very good.
Technology Sturdy Britain software, super grateful.
Installed automatically for me this afternoon. However, when I examine plugins I see only two available (actually 3 in view of the pdf issue mentioned above). No Flash plugin? Why? I navigated to a webpage that required Flash, unintentionally, and Dragon informed me I needed to update the plugin. The problem is the “Dragon Helper” on the Adobe site indicates this version of Dragon requires FP17 PPAPI for Win7. The problem is this version is not in the pull-down list so, we are required to search the archive list. Three version of Flash 17 are listed…
fp_17.0.0.134_archive
fp_17.0.0.169_archive
fp_17.0.0.188_archive
…and I do not know which of this is correct. Extracting each should provide the answer. However, my secondary concern is that a list entry for a flash plugin is not listed in the chrome://plugins page. I find this troublesome.
Can anyone clear these issues up for me?
Thank you.
Hi Short-Cut,
Yes.
Kind regards.

Hi R2VC,
Support for NPAPI is disabled by default for security reasons.
NPAPI-Wikipedia
Kind regards.
Slower & no PrivDog? 
Dumped the AdSanitizer and installed this one AdBlock offered by getadblock.com
New Comodo Dragon 42.2 HTML5 6/7 speed score 4485
Peacekeeper - Benchmarks by UL Solutions
Comodo Dragon version 36.1.12 HTML5 6/7 speed score 5625
Peacekeeper - Benchmarks by UL Solutions
So not faster much much slower and NO PrivDog
after downloading the update it some how disabled flash and no matter how hard I tried to get it working by reinstalling it, I kept getting that it was disabled and since I couldn’t get it running I had to restore my system and now since I didn’t download the update I cannot use CD at all.
anyone know what I can do to get the update to run again & how to get flash working once I am able to update it.
at the moment I am using Fire Fox and unlike comodo the anti-ad/pop up blockers are lack luster at best and I want to get Comodo back up and running asap.
Sorry about that.
been fighting with pop ups and other things that I was just trying to get everything out quickly as FF is a joke and the only thing allowing me to work relatively safely is the Comodo internet protection.
Hi ValorJ,
No apology required. 
The Forum is a big place and very easy to miss things.
Kind regards.
Its not obvious … but you have dumped what you may have wanted to keep
AdSanitizer, supported by AdTrustMedia, replacing malicious Ads = PrivDog with a new name
https://help.comodo.com/topic-120-1-279-6108-Use-Ad-Sanitizer-to-Stop-Websites-Tracking-Your-Activity.html
I also disabled AdSanitizer simply because ads started appearing on several of my favorite websites where they hadn’t before. I don’t use any special ad-blocking software, either.
Oh, so it actually introduces ads where before there were none ?, bizarre. Its supposed to just replace ads with ones provided by adtrustmedia ( another of Melihs ventures which was setup to support this plugin ), unless the ads come from advertisers registered with adtrustmedia and prove clean then the originals would show. It also blocks malicious ads and other tricks … But I think adding ads where there are none ordinarily is a new trick the old dog has learned.
You might want to report that as a possible bug in the adsanitizer part of the forum ( if there is one, I have not looked )
Edit : Maybe report it somewhere here https://forums.comodo.com/privdog-pd-b303.0/
I cant even get this version of Comodo Dragon installed, it goes through the motions ,the installer crashes, cd fails to start, couldnt even uninstall it, and I had to manually delete the folders and reinstall v36.1
I thought I was the only one that lost all my plugins… looks like you did to. I’m just trying to get flash and all my previous plugins back into the new version of dragon…
I loved comodo to play my favorite game on Facebook , but now i got the message it doesn’t support unity webplayer. Comodo was the best browser for it. What can i do??
Hi, antivirus Avast stop the download.
It report:
Infection: Win32:Evo-gen [Susp]
Thanks!
Also [at] jdh - Some of the following probably applies to your experience reference NPAPI and things not working in chrome code
[at] Crossclown - No I un-install all the extras CD comes with, imho they are just more things to go wrong, or potentially be exploited, and most of them do not contribute to the Privacy and Security of the browser
I think the installer does try to respect your previous preferences, so if at one time you un-installed an old plugin that CD came with, the installer will not install it again ( I think anyway ) …
… However they are on your hard drive
So if you open a windows explorer window ( My Computer or My Documents ), and navigate to :
C:\ Program files \ Comodo \ Dragon \ Extensions \
In there you will see a bunch of .crx files
Now keep that window open but bring Dragon to the front
Go to Dragons menu, More Tools, and choose Extensions
Now bring the window with .crxs to the front again, and resize the window so that you can drag and drop those files onto Dragons Extensions window …
Whatever you drag and drop will then install ( or they should do )
Though Dragon is now catching up with the latest Chrome code, so any old NPAPI extras will not work. Like Adobes Flash.
See this blog Chromium Blog: The Final Countdown for NPAPI
But if they are PPAPI they will work ( like Pepperflash which google makes for their own Chrome browser )
Any extensions on Googles extension site which used to be NPAPI will be getting weeded out of there ( if they havent been already ). Its to try and stop people potentially installing malware disguised as extensions, but also Adobes own brand of flash breaks the privilege levels in chrome, so is also undesireable because potentially it could be exploited if adobe lose the plot occasionally ( and historically they often do ).
So if you want flash in Dragon going forward, you will also need to install Googles chrome and get pepperflash out of its installation … Or, ya know if you want to have a browser with plugins which degrades the privacy and security of the browser - Just use Google Chrome for watching YouTube, and keep Dragon for general browsing on potentially dodgy sites without any extensions or plugins to degrade it.
Hope some of that helps as a workaround, but might be a good idea to give a bug report with as much detail as possible as to how your installation ended up the way it did - See “How to submit bug reports” here https://forums.comodo.com/bug-reports-cd-b205.0/
I think thats Avast giving false positives again
Check the file out with VirusTotal https://www.virustotal.com/
Here’s my results VirusTotal
A couple timed out, but thats a pretty overwhelming clean bill for all the ones that did not time out, including Avasts online scan proving it clean
