Iron Portable 10.0.650.0 has been released. SRWare Iron is 'The browser of the future' - based on the free Sourcecode "Chromium" - but without some features that privacy advocates object to. It's packaged in PortableApps.com Format so it can easily integrate with the PortableApps.com Suite. And it's open source and completely free. Read on for more details...
Iron is packaged for portable use with permission from SRWare.
PortableApps.com Platform 2.0 Beta 5 users who already have this app installed, simply click 'Check for Updates' in your PA.c Menu to update to the new version.
Features
Iron is based on the open source Chromium source code that the Google Chrome browser is based on. Iron does not include the unique ids, timestamps, custom error pages and other information present in some Google Chrome packages.
PortableApps.com Installer / PortableApps.com Format
Iron Portable is packaged in a PortableApps.com Installer so it will automatically detect an existing PortableApps.com installation when your drive is plugged in. It supports upgrades by installing right over an existing copy, preserving all settings. And it's in PortableApps.com Format, so it automatically works with the PortableApps.com Suite including the Menu and Backup Utility.

Thx for very fast resolving that issues
which was discovered under this portable version You mentioned before
Not actually fixed
The only issue 9.0.600.2 had was related to language switching; that issue is still present. I tried fixing the bug and sent John a test build or two, but he was still able to find situations where the fix wouldn't hold. Eventually, we just agreed that getting 10.0.650.0 out the door was more important than fixing the language bug, so I'm working on a fix for the next release.
No It Isn't
I disabled language handling entirely, so now users can set the proper language themselves.
Platform?
I noticed that, but I thought I was supposed to work on a fix so both Iron's built-in language switching and Platform-based language switching would work as expected?
Importance
The user being able to change the language on their own when used without the platform is more important than automated language switching. *Then* we worry about automated language switching (if it can be done properly).
I agree
"updated apps are more liked
(even with some need-fixes)"
thanks for outrightness about that.
