Hello,
I'm really excited about your piece of software and your outstanding support and we will buy your software.
I have a question regarding updating the underlaying chrome. If your company decides one day to no longer support the webbrowser component, it is impossible to update to newer chrome versions. Is there any chance to update the browser component on our own?
Best regards, Michael

Hi,
I do not believe it is possible for you to update the chrome engine without our source code. Our product is not a simple wrap of the Chrome browser. In fact it's integrated rather deep. So to the least extend you will need the source code in order to update any part of the product.
However I do not see why we would stop supporting it though. This is a very exciting and unique product, and it is only possible because Chrome is open source so we are not only able to have a deep and clear understanding of the internal work of the engine, but can also modify it in order to integrate it seamlessly with our product. We feel that our developers created a quite impressive product by combining the power of the Chrome browser engine, the performance of the native code, and the beauty of .NET very elegantly. It would not make sense for us to drop such a product.
Thanks!
