Ad blocker (new)

  • Network-level ad and tracker blocking powered by EasyList, EasyPrivacy and uBlock Origin filter lists — on by default
  • Toggle in Settings → Behaviour → Ad blocker
  • Filter lists are cached on disk, so startup stays instant after the first launch, blocking keeps working offline, and the lists refresh weekly
  • Ads and trackers are cancelled before they load. Cosmetic element-hiding is not included yet (it needs a newer Electron runtime)

Other changes

  • The process now appears as System Browser Helper in Task Manager and the Start menu — tray icon and hotkeys are unchanged
  • The window can be dragged from the title bar and the navigation bar
  • Start with Windows is switched on automatically the first time the app runs (turn it off in Settings → System)
  • Website: fixed character-encoding corruption, still EN/IT and mobile-friendly

Fixes

  • Removed a duplicate auto-updater startup call
