    StreamFab General Query internal chromium browser, HOW to now?

    Since before 6248, you could click on an area in streamfab and hold the shift key and click, and streamfab would open the internal Chromium browser. See screenshots as well. Now, it does not work for later SF versions for me.

    Does anyone know if there is another way? Or is it just not going to work now?

    ANY HELP WOULD BE GRATEFUL


    ADDED Tried Ctrl key, Ctrl + shift, tried Ctrl+N

    ADDED #2 I was even willing to think it's my computer, but in older versions of streamfab, you still can do it.

    And going back to any version older than 6248 causes a direct crash unless you delete the temp&cache files.

    Members were adding Chrome extensions this way to SF and more ...

    Things can't be fully accomplished without proper access.

    That's pretty annoying

    Wilson.Wang, can you please ask the developer to restore that functionality? It is very useful.

    Stan001, in the meantime, here's a workaround:

    In StreamFab, paste the following URL into the address bar: https://chromewebstore.google.com/de...cldplkcmkfpgff

    Add the extension to Chrome and it will open the full browser after installation. Do what you need to do and the next time you need to get the full browser, go back to that same URL, remove the extension, then add it back to open the full browser.

    This is the first thing that came to mind so there may be other ways. It's kind of a pain but at least it's not like you need the full browser very often. I use it to install and configure extensions and to login to sites that have modal popups or just don't like the SF interface.

      Thanks, jpp72. I know it's usually not needed much then for extensions, although I used it when having login issues on a few provider sites, including Netflix, or used a cookie extension for Netflix, but at least with Netflix, my backup is loading up a VPN, if getting error on login with Netflix, then start the VPN, try login again and error goes away and login works. Then turn off the VPN, as I only download from US Netflix from the US.

      restore that functionality? It is very useful.
      I agree also.

      The pop-up browser I also found is now very useful in clearing the SF cache!! That's until if they ever add that to SF itself, which would be very easy.
      I had another program and had issues, and right away, they pointed me to the fact that their program has a clear cache option.

      Thanks again, jpp72!!​

      See SS's below ...

      Pop-up Browser options for SF to clear cache and/or cookies.

      Other programs option to clear cache/cookies, everything. Built right into where their settings are.

        I use this one for clearing the cache and cookies.

        Forget Me - Clean History, Cookies & more

        That way i can clear the data for a specific site instead of all the sites.
