Tried running the R5 patch and it did the same thing as the last update. It extracted the files and threw up a chinese menu which I closed and it said it couldn't open the "output" file.
If Supermium 119 is still installed and working, it might be best to forget about trying to update it. If you get a Windows 11 PC, you could use professional-grade browsers such as Chrome or Edge that demand no particular knowledge to receive updates.

If I was still running Windows Vista, using Supermium, and wanted to update it without completely removing my earlier version first, I would do some reading! I would carefully read this GitHub page, which was pointed out by VistaLover on page 58 of MSFN’s now-66-page thread on Supermium in which no one has ever mentioned a screen in Chinese. (I don’t think the developer is Chinese. I do not know him personally, but his MSFN account has a Canadian flag and his written English is better than most.)

Update from Supermium 122.0.6261.85 Hotfix (R2) to Supermium 122.0.6261.152 (R4) doesn't work · Issue #531 · win32ss/supermium

Well, I logged onto my secondary hard drive with Vista and ran the R5, after making sure all the controls for the file applied to the system, me and anything else. Installed quickly and works great. That drive never had 360 Chrome. Then, I tried installing the same R5 file on my primary hard drive and I lost Supermium completely. Can't even install the original version 119.................................. Might try a system recovery tomorrow. Using Opera at the moment.

Glad to hear that R5 “works great”! Meanwhile, someone at MSFN mentioned on Sunday that R6 has been posted at GitHub. It sounds like there is currently no browser on your “primary” drive that could even download files from GitHub, which uses very up-to-date JavaScript. I don’t know of anything older than Chinesium 360 that might work. (Please don’t refer to anything made in China as Chrome, which is the name of a browser made by Google - although it was definitely a Chromium fork.)

Okay, as often asked, "splain this to me Lucy." Yesterday, when I lost Supermium on my primary hard drive, running the desktop Chrome.exe shortcut resulted in a message that said Chrome.exe had either been deleted or removed from the path specified in the shortcut. I was able to verify that Chrome.exe was not in the specified path. In addition, a search of my C: drive for Chrome.exe came up negative. This morning, I decided to copy the Chrome.exe from my secondary hard drive to the path specified in the desktop shortcut on my primary drive. However, I accidently double clicked on the .exe file and it opened Supermium 119 from my primary drive with all the customizations I made over the last month or so. "Splain it to me Lucy."

Then I decided to go with the copy of Chrome.exe as mentioned above, to the appropriate location on my primary drive. When I tried to
run Supermium from the desktop shortcut, I got a side-by-side error.

A little more information. As mentioned, the Chrome.exe from R5 opens Supermium 119 with all my customizations. However, I just checked the Supermium version and it said its 122.......................................152, which is R5.

I guess no one wanted to tackle my last two posts.

...HitmanPro has found 3 malware in the core of Thorium...
Lately there has been considerable discussion of malware detections in both Supermium and Thorium at MSFN, found by uploading files to VirusTotal. These might all be false positives, but I cannot offer any assurances of that myself.

Another alarming development is that GitHub has taken down the win32ss account. Developer win32 has posted in MSFN’s Supermium thread to say that he is appealing GitHub’s action, that the following link is “the official Supermium website,” and that “there is no malware in Supermium.”

...GitHub has taken down the win32ss account...
The win32ss/supermium account at GitHub is public again today, which is encouraging. The other official Supermium Web Browser site might be friendlier toward older web browsers on XP/Vista that can’t deal with GitHub’s JavaScript.
