Chromium is a browser similar to Google Chrome and uses the same code base. Chromium omits some components including Google's brand, auto-update mechanism, RLZ identifier, as well as the bundled Adobe Flash Player and PDF viewer.
NOTE: this project is dormant with no release since July 2017 and as such may be subject to security issues. Proceed with caution.
Chromium Portable is a custom-built version of the dev channel of the Chromium web browser. It is packaged in the PortableApps.com Format and supports jPortable.
A 64-bit version is optionally available within the extract process.
Alternatively, X-Chromium is also available.

@rokth: To where? It should write it to your profile directory unless you specify otherwise.

In the documentation, there is talk of a settings manager that allows you to configure Chromium Portable's settings:
http://crportable.sourceforge.net/Docs/Settings
Anyone know how to do this?

Read my post here to manually configure hidden settings in Chromium (like setting Incognito mode without a command-line switch):

Anyone using the latest version of Chromium Portable notice that on startup, your floppy disk drive gets scanned?

@fredazoid ~ I just happen to have a machine with a 3.5 floppy still in use. Yes, the latest Chromium portable lights up on mine as well. Just for comparison, I tried the latest Iron portable - no reaction from the floppy.

Chromium Portable bundles both 32-bit and 64-bit versions, which is why the filesize is so high.

freakazoid: yeah the WPP is radically smaller so I'm guessing it's just the 32bit version. Website doesn't indicate that.

I started to notice problems in Chromium 42 with Flash and found out that Chromium is deprecating NPAPI plugin support. This means that Flash (and other NPAPI plugins) will not work properly unless you use the PPAPI versions. For Flash, you can use PepperFlash.

Chromium - as per this article - is not completely open source and has privacy issues:

Sourceforge is useless at the moment, nothing is downloading. It`s either coming back to the product page or showing a 500. :(

I have no problem downloading the app. Try clearing your browser's cache and cookies.

The current download link (below title) links to a patch (24.0.1284.2.7z) and not the paf.exe
The direct dl link I found is: https://sourceforge.net/projects/crportable/files/ChromiumPortable_56.0.2902.0.paf.exe/download

Clearing cache / cookies makes no difference. Tried in several browsers, same result. No worries, I`m sure it will fix itself soon.
v56.0.2902.0
It writes a diskcache
