The Google Chrome team has released a new version of their browser software. The new version comes with security updates, top issues repaired, and a change on how things work.
Security
- Many pop-ups will spoof a user to close a window, but it turns out that it is actually part of the advertisement. A new feature has been created to prevent people from being fooled.
Top Issues That Have Been Repaired
- Touchpad scrolling on laptops
- Plugins like Flash, Silverlight, Quicktime, and Windows Media are now working.
- “Chrome has crashed” message has been changed.
- No longer store information from logging into secure sites (https)
- Improved reliability for those on web proxies
UI Changes
- New tab/window/incognito window has been moved to a new menu called “Customize and control Google Chrome” instead of “Control the current page.”
- Spell checker works on text input fields and words can be “added to the dictionary.”
- Temporary downloaded files are called .download files. After the file saving is complete, the file extension is converted to the appropriate type.
