Rinswa Browser 1.0.4 Stable

Rinswa Browser v1.0.4 (Official Stable Release)

Welcome to the Rinswa Browser 1.0.4 Stable release! This update introduces the official Rinswa Browser License directly inside about:license, eliminates redundant and false update notifications, addresses critical layout and contrast enhancements for Windows Light themes, optimizes browser extension popup sizing, and cleans up enterprise notification banners in Settings.

---

🚀 Key Improvements & Highlights in v1.0.4

• 📜 Official Rinswa Browser License Added to about:license:

  • Added the full official Rinswa Browser Software License & Terms to about:license, authored and copyrighted by Arindam Makar.
  • Includes a direct index link to about:license#rinswa in the table of contents and a custom gradient heading with cyan accent styling.
  • Credits Arindam Makar and links directly to the official source repository (https://github.com/deadxfire/Rinswa-browser) alongside the Mozilla Public License 2.0 (MPL 2.0).

• 🛡️ Hardened Update Notification & Suppression Engine:

  • Enhanced UpdateListener.sys.mjs, UpdateService.sys.mjs, and AppUpdater.sys.mjs with strict semantic version comparison.
  • Automatically suppresses and clears manual update doorhangers, banners, and badges whenever the running version is at least as new as the available release (versionComparison <= 0).
  • Completely prevents loops where the browser previously attempted to download the installer when already on the latest version.

• ☀️ Windows White / Light Theme Contrast & Legibility Overhaul:

  • Fixed white-on-white and unreadable text issues across the AI Window sidebar and content areas under Windows Light Theme (light-dark(#f8fafc, transparent)).
  • Improved contrast across tab labels, sidebars, and subview menus for high readability in both light and dark modes.

• 🧩 Extension Popup Layout & Truncation Fix:

  • Resolved an issue where extension popups (such as Proton Pass, Bitwarden, and other password/security extensions) were cut off on the right side due to rigid panel clipping.
  • Extension popups now dynamically adapt with a responsive width (min-width: 380px, max-width: 800px) and overflow: visible, ensuring buttons, text fields, and branding elements render with complete visibility.

• ⚙️ Clean Settings Screen (Managed Organization Notice Suppressed):

  • Suppressed the "Your browser is being managed by your organization" banner in about:preferences.
  • While enterprise policies continue to cleanly deliver built-in ad blocking (uBlock Origin) and optimized default settings, the administrative notice is suppressed from the user interface.
