Recently not working on chrome (with windows7) #58

Closed cmmsr closed 7 months ago

cmmsr commented 7 months ago

Hi, I use windows 7 and this means I cannot receive chrome updates recently. And it's been a few days (or weeks in case I didnt notice quickly) that leech block is just not working, which makes me very sad caust it's such an helpful app. It is not blocking pages like it used to. It it because you made a recent update? This happen simultneously accross chrome profiles so I dont think it's because I tweeked the options Thank you! Clara

Is it possible for you to update to the latest version? Should be Version 119.0.6045.200.

Anton-V-K commented 7 months ago

AFAIK updating Chrome to 119.0.6045.200 isn't possible for Windows 7/8.1 users - 109.x.x.x was the last version to support old systems. @cmmsr , you can try installing an alternative Chromium-forked browser like Supermium, or downgrading the extension's version as explained in https://github.com/proginosko/LeechBlockNG-chrome/issues/59#issuecomment-1839872799

Closing this because it's not really an issue with LeechBlock. Workaround provided in #59.
