List of keys/files for those picky about uninstallation. Pretty hefty client (2.17 MB) for being as devoid of features as it is. Not really a fan of per-application skins, will wait and see just how it develops and if multi-protocol clients (Miranda in particular) will pick it up.

What program did you use to figure that out?

Remember It's the first release, you can't expect them to come out with all guns blazing right away. I think Google will tweak this client nicely, we can only give them ideas. I think they did very well for a first release, remember what the first msn looked like? Like poo poo. This looks quite nice, well done google I say. I have faith they will improve this client nicely.

I hope.  :rofl:

Yeah, but the first MSN came out what, 8 years ago ( I know I'm wrong and I'm sure someone will correct me)? Things have kind of progressed since then. I realize it's just the 1st release and is probably aimed more at testing the network, but still. In it's current state... useless.

    • BATorrent 3.0.3 is out.
    • The current Statcoungter desktop numbers has Google Chrome increasing it's market share this past year and currently commanding 75% share. Everybody else is just making up the numbers with even MS Edge losing 3% this past year and has dipped just below 10% share which is staggering considering it's default on every Windows deviced purchased. If these numbers are correct that terrible Edge number is both devastating and embarrassing for MS especially when you add in the terribly low Bing market share. This leads me to ask a couple of questions as the default browser holding just less than 10% market share seems really weird. It used to be that all Chromium browsers were being counted as Google Chrome in some cases.  Is this still happening? Do these high Google Chrome numbers contains some Edge user numbers?
    • Yeah, all web browsers seem to have some junk in them these days. The regular Brave browser has a lot of unnecessary stuff in it, similar to Microsoft Edge, so I don't see any benefits of using Brave over Microsoft Edge if you already have Microsoft Edge fully set up with adblockers and that. The cleanest or best free browser outside of 'Microsoft Edge' I’ve tried so far is 'Opera Air'. It still has some bloat, but nowhere near as much as Brave browser, for example. I also really like the web browser called 'Floorp' that is based on Firefox. I have a system wide Adblocking program for Windows 11 that doesn't just blocks ads in the the web browser, but over the whole thing. I don't really need a web browser with an inbuilt adblocker because of that.
