As a user with a lot of opened tabs, I like the tab option in Cent Browser to customize the "Minimum tab width".
With other Chromium based browsers that don't have the option to customize the tab width in the settings, there's the option to arrange it by entering chrome://flags in the address bar, continued by finding Tab Scrolling. At Tab Scrolling you choose the tab shrink option you like. Your change will take effect the next time you relaunch your browser.
At ghacks you can find more information about it: How to set a minimum tab width in Google Chrome.

I want to have the download functionality of CentBrowser.
I want the popup that lets me choose between my favorite folders.
I want the popup that shows the file name I can edit.
I want the popup that shows the exact link from which the file is being downloaded.
I want to display all the information in the dropdown menu, such as how much I've downloaded, the transfer speed, and the remaining time.
:-( No browser, even forks, has these features, they all suck!
Moreover, the popup appears very quickly, while others are slow, some don't show anything and the download starts, others show a sidebar that doesn't close afterward (Vivaldi)... CENT was the best for me.

CENT was the best for me. try catsxp. In terms of download functions, speed, and appearance, it is the same as cent, and even better, it has a choice of ANY application for downloading, and a line of arguments for downloading. Cent only has built-in support for some external downloaders via the COM interface.
I understand that everyone here is already fed up with the mention of this browser, but it is the only one who is trying to be like a cent.
Everyone wants the cent browser to be updated, but so far there have been no updates.
As soon as the update appears, everyone will come back immediately.

I don't think you understand that very well. I really hope that the developer will appoint someone who will clean up all your messages that go beyond the Cent discussion. I've already got your offtop in a circle. It's time for you to forget the way here, a man with 100 accounts, and fix your head.

And?
Does catsxp have the following features?
If not, I can't leave cent as well as those who want windows 7 support and vertical font rendering(which admini professes to have too many working resources).
Me, though, I live in a language area that uses kanji characters.
In any case, I would like the features listed below!
- Force links to open in the background tab
- Open popup window in new tab
- Hide close button on tab
- Pinned tabs can only be closed by context menu
- Warn me when closing window with multiple tabs
- Minimum tab width(px)
- Open hyperlink in / Open bookmarks in / Open homepage in / Open search result in / Open typed URL in new tab
- New tab position Next to current tab group
- Action after closing current tab Auto colect
- the multi-column tab list button
- Always open tabs in the background(not middle click, Ctrl+click)By only left click is absolutely mandatory!
- Display of search results >New foreground tab
- Display when typing a URL >New background tab
- New tab position >After the current tab group
- when current tab is closed >Automatic selection
- When closing the last tab >insert a new tab without changing the window
- "open in new tab", "background, foreground selection", etc.
- the multi-column tab list button
- Restore button for closed tabs
- Download button and download list
- Mute toggle button
- Screenshot button
- Always open tabs in the background
- Super Drag
- Enable lazy loading of the session at startup
- These behavior choices are essential to me.Minimum tab width, tab list menu, download list manager, always open in background, location of new tabs, behavior when closing, etc.
- Show home page >New foreground tab
- Display of search results >New foreground tab
- Display when typing a URL >New background tab
- New tab position >After the current tab group
- when current tab is closed >Automatic selection
- When closing the last tab >insert a new tab without changing the window
- Middle click on tab >Reload tab
- Click middle button on tab bar >Restore last closed tab
Please do not worry about duplication.
I'm too lazy to count them.

I'm too lazy to count them. catsxp has a portable mode like cent (actually not quite like that, you need to add the startup keys --disable-encryption-win --disable-machine-id to StartupParm.txt), you can try it in parallel and write to us here what it does not have and what it does have.
Unlike Cent, it is being updated, and features may be coming. For now, it has copied many of Cent's features.
https://www.catsxp.com/history
v5.6.2 [2025-06-04 22:00:14]
1.[*]Kernel upgrade:137.0.7151.80
2.[!]Some problems correction and detail optimization
3.[+]Multi login tab
I tried it and I didn't like something about it. In many ways it's not quite right. And speaking of fonts, someone recently wrote that they don't work as well there as on Cent, and they work better on Cent.

CentBrowser основан на Chromium, а Chromium обновляется каждые 4 недели. За год выходит примерно 12 стабильных версий, в каждой из которых:- закрываются уязвимости, включая критические (а их немало);
- улучшается производительность движка и JavaScript;
- внедряются или изменяются веб-стандарты, API и функции, необходимые для работы современных сайтов;
- устаревают старые технологии, которые удаляются из Chromium — и это тоже важно.
Если браузер не обновляется, это значит:- он уязвим для атак через веб-страницы;
- некоторые сайты начинают глючить или тормозить, потому что используют новые технологии, которые старый Chromium не поддерживает;
- расширения, перешедшие на Manifest V3, перестают работать — а переход на Manifest V3 уже идёт полным ходом;
- многие разработчики сайтов и сервисов больше не тестируют свои проекты на старых версиях браузеров — и это приводит к неожиданным проблемам (это я как веб-разработчик утверждаю).
Да, CentBrowser удобен и я его использую параллельно с другими браузерами, потому что есть мультилогинные вкладки, удобно тестировать сайты из разных аккаунтов с различными правами доступа. Но этот браузер по всей видимости поддерживал один человек, а не команда. Очевидно, что либо интерес к проекту у автора пропал, либо он просто не справляется. Это нормально — жизнь меняется. Но нам, пользователям, важно понимать риски и ориентироваться на актуальные решения.
CatsXP, Thorium, Supermium, Ungoogled Chromium — есть альтернативы, которые развиваются и получают обновления. Можно обсуждать, у кого больше фишек, но актуальность и безопасность — приоритет.
CentBrowser в текущем состоянии — это, по сути, браузер-ретро. Его уже нельзя (и даже может быть опасно) использовать как основной на постоянной основе. Разве что как эксперимент или из ностальгии. Do you have any alternatives to Cent?

Для тех, кто в бронепоезде, специально повторю — патчей безопасности не было уже год, браузер не только сильно устарел по рендерингу страниц, отстал от дополнений, но и опасен для использования, потому что это потенциальная мишень для вредоносных скриптов на нехороших сайтах.
Браузер по факту умер без обновлений, тут объявлять ничего не надо. Can you provide some suggestions to replace Cent Browser?

then back up then replace the chrome.dll file from cent browser folder
I've used Maxthon back in year 2012-2014, then it became outdated and chromium thrived so I switched to Cent,
Today, Maxthon is the only browser that can replace cent (for me), So Thanks for the reminder. Hello, I have heard that Maxthon browser has virus and tracker and malware?
