150.0.7871.253
Chromium 150.0.7871.253 for Windows 2000
This project was made possible thanks to the excellent patches created by e3kskoy7wqk, included in the Chromium-for-windows-7-REWORK repository (huge thanks to e3kskoy7wqk!).
Hardware Requirements
- CPU: Requires a processor with SSE2 instruction set support.
- RAM: At least 512MB is recommended, 1GB for more than one tab.
Platform Support
- Windows 2000 (SP0–SP4) (including Extended Kernel v3.1l)
- Windows XP x86 (SP0–SP2)
- Windows XP x86 SP3, XP x64 and newer: Use the Chromium-for-windows-7-REWORK builds instead.
- Windows Whistler and late Windows 2000 Beta builds: Might work, but not officially supported.
Highlights
- Native compatibility: Built straight from Chromium source changes - zero binary patches or external DLL wrappers.
- Functional Sandbox: Full sandbox is working, matching the safety level of the Chromium-for-windows-7-REWORK builds on XP SP3.
- Crashpad restored: Proper crash dumps are generated, making debugging significantly easier.
- Manifest V2 support: Full support for Manifest V2 extensions.
- SwiftShader always available: Software rendering via SwiftShader is built-in and fully accessible. WebGL 1.0 and 2.0 is supported.
- Optional DirectWrite: Simply extract the
dwrite_w2k.ziparchive into the same folder aschrome.exeto enable DirectWrite font rendering.
Known Issues
- Tooltips behavior:
- Transitioning between tooltips has a ~1s delay.
- A blinking text caret causes active tooltips to dismiss early.
- Video playback:
- Audio may sound robotic/metallic during video playback.
- Video playback may experience stuttering or dropped frames.
Updated at 19:53 UTC on September 17, 2026 - fixed crashes on Windows 2000 running on older SSE2-capable processors, such as the Intel Pentium M, and fixed a very rare crash on the Windows 2000 with extended kernel 3.1l. Installation of extensions from sources other than the Chrome Web Store have also been fixed.
