I’ve been attempting to get a few browsers (other than Edge and IE) to work on this build. Here’s the known working ones and status on each:
Firefox Quantum:
The 64-bit .exe file directly from their website, though does run under WoW64, does a check for processors and fails to install. ▼ Download
The 32-bit .exe file most likely has the same response, but I haven’t tested it yet. ▼ Download
RECOMMENDED: ARM64 exe runs great! ▼ Download
Google Chrome:
Generally runs horribly and graphical glitches everywhere, not recommended. AFAIK, there’s no ARM64 .exe file for chrome at the moment. ▼ Download
Chromium:
It’s the same as Chrome, but slightly better for some reason. If you really need Chrome, use Chromium. Not recommended.
I definitely have to try Firefox ARM64. It looks like it’s the best bet for web browsing inside WOA. How’s the memory consumption? I won’t ask about Chrome
I don’t know the memory compensation ATM, but it runs fine, except the installer is slow.
NOTE: Windows SmartScreen uses a INSANE amount of memory and CPU power (for some reason) and launching installers and other programs that need administrator and are unverified.
By far I find Firefox ARM64 the best on the pi; plus it runs native arm64 code. I’m using Firefox Nightly. Install using the latest installer, firefox-67.0a1.en-US.win64-aarch64.installer.exe. (I didn’t provide a direct link to the install file since it changes frequently)
