  • Update to 1.92.2
  • Includes x64 and arm64 Linux builds
  • Includes x64 and x32 Windows builds
  • Includes REH archives for all

Note: If a VSCode extension you are trying to install requires Node 20, it won't work in Codium. But these are few and far between.

1.89.1.24138 - Windows 32 Bit Release

  • VSCode & VSCodium ended 32 bit Windows support with 1.84.0. 1.83.1 was the last to support it. I restored support for it here > 97ceb67
  • This makes sense, since this fork is for old Windows.
  • Going forward, Codium releases will include 32 bit builds for Windows. Fixes #11

Standard point release: Update to 1.88.1

NOTE: Decided to stop making MacOS releases, as they are annoying to make and there are often bugs generating the .dmg. I have to remote into this guys Mac, and it's really slow. Very few people are on MacOS 10.13/10.14, so there's really no benefit to this fork other than the better logo and compiler optimizations. For help, the last MacOS version (arm64 & x64) is 1.87.2.24075.
UPDATE: Decided to continue the MacOS builds, although I can't guarantee any kind of frequency.

Minor Win7 bug mentioned in the previous release still exists.

Also added a minor patch to the Process Explorer, since I noticed it when investigating the above mentioned bug. The PID column is too much to the right, with no padding and it obscures the last number of the PID value. I simply added a 6px padding, and now its fine. I will probably file a bug and a pull request for this upstream at both VSCodium and vscode.

1.88.0 - Linux, Windows, & MacOS - 18th Release

  • Rebase on upstream 1.88.0
  • Added REH archives for Linux and Windows (Fixes #7 )

NOTE: There is a Windows 7-specific minor bug. I tested it on 7, 8.1, and 10, and found it only happens on 7. Very minor and shouldn't impact hardly anyone. If you go to the "About" menu item, and run "Process Explorer" (which is kinda like a mini version of Chromium/Chrome's "Task Manager"), and then you try to close Codium without closing the Process Explorer first, it will cause a crash (although you were closing it anyway, so it isn't that big of a deal). Doesn't happen with other secondary windows as far as I can tell, and it doesn't happen as long as you close the Process Explorer before closing the main application. If anyone notices any more crashes with any other secondary windows, please file an issue/bug! It's very strange, and I think it has something to do with some sort of race condition of the process explorer trying to get the renderer process's state as it is being unloaded from memory. Windows 7 handles heap unloading of .exes differently than Win 8 and above.

> MacOS builds coming soon! - Decided to stop making MacOS builds, sorry.

NOTE: The codium_1.88.0.24096_AVX.deb is an experimental special build for Linux that uses AVX compiler flags, and my AVX compiler optimized build of Electron 22.3.27 for added speed. It does load noticeably faster.

  • Re-worked and re-organized the entire repo after major changes upstream that made a simple merge impossible. As a consequence, it only shows "9 commits ahead", but really you should look at the number of changed files instead.
  • Linux version should also now work on Ubuntu 16.04 again (I haven't tested though).
  • Fixed issue on Windows 7 RTM (non SP1)
  • Rebased on upstream 1.86.2
  • Changed the "Quit" or "Exit" keyboard shortcut to Ctrl+Q for Windows/Linux, and Cmd+Shift+Q for MacOS (and Alt+F4 still works)
  • It should also work on Windows Vista SP2 with Extended Kernel Installed

NOTE 2: I am able to get 1.87.x working fine, but the latest tip-of-tree 1.88.0 alpha has issues that might not be resolvable, thus, 1.87.x might be the last Codium version for Win7/8/8.1 😢 If that is the case, it will still have been a good achievement of mine to keep vscode working for this long on those platforms, and indeed 1.87 will continue to be very usable for probably a good 2 years or so (that about how long the 1.70.3 (last "officially supported version") worked before stuff started breaking with extensions, network requests, etc). For users wanting another ressurected fork, might I suggest my Atom-ng Fork? It's a compiler optimized fork of Atom with updated Electron, updated packages, and some UI tweaks and branding changes. > https://github.com/Alex313031/atom-ng

If anyone would like to help me in the 1.88.x endeavor, head over to https://github.com/Alex313031/vscode-win7, and take a look at my //patches subdir. The issue isn't Electron 22, but rather, Node 16 (which comes bundled with Electron 22 and is needed to make some of the native modules work under 22), and a couple npm packages related to Azure integration that now require Node 18 to build at all.
