Many of the browsers can be customised by use of a .css file in the appropriate profile. I use this to customise the tabs in FF. Needed after the classic theme restorer plug-in stopped working.

The new tab button only turns green when hovered on. The tabs have gaps between them that the background shows through.

My problem is i hate with a passion how the current google Chrome looks when its not in full screen and this also means Edge Chromium is similar, i just wish it was better looking like in Vivaldi.

For me to use Edge as my main browser i will have to change the search engine on the start page, i believe that is locked to Bing, so will look for an alternative start page in the Chrome store.

p.s that theme you have there is soooooooo bad! lol

It's like that because the windows theme is Zune and that is mostly monochrome except for active buttons that are orange. :D

Sunglasses needed! ;)

Just discovered you can't use the themes from the chrome store with Edge.

Atleast my essentials still work, Lastpass and Ublock Origin.

Be useful to see a comparison between that and the Chtome browser.

There is also a new version of this for Android.

Can I take this opportunity to report that it's now 2 days since support for Win 7 was dropped.

My house hasn't burnt down, bank account been trashed, car stolen, or a large sink hole appeared in the front garden.

Maybe it's because I'm running dual boot with Ubuntu Studio. . . oh and System Restore works fine ;)

Wife did forget to put sugar in my coffee yesterday, but I'm attributing that one to human error. :D

I'll be setting up dual boot with Linux Mint this weekend. No doubt I'll fully migrate to Linux eventually.

Same, windows is mainly used for gaming, but with gaming requirements pushing ridiculous prices (GFX, CPU RAM upgrades) I can see me joining the PS4 thread in the near future ;)

So Windows 7 support ended 2 days ago but I've just finished installing 4 updates. I thought yesterday mornings would be the last.

I guess it will be future updates.

You mean like what happened with XP?

No I'm just guessing they will stop coding updates now, you got updates coded before the end date.

tbh getting Windows updates are usually the source of any pc problem I get. Not getting them would be a bonus! Curse the day I upgraded to W10....
