Problem you are trying to solve

Hello, thanks for this tool which is really useful.

I'm repairing one of my W7 OSs and chrloader cannot connect to the update urls for a reason I cannot understand: the "New Version" appears as "not found". But I can download the files manually and I have set up correctly everything by hand so this is no big deal with OSs that are on maintenance.

The only issue in this case is that chrloader won't start chromium unless I go to the File menu and choose "start" and I'd love a real launcher with no manual intervention.

Suggested solution

Besides of the option to use chrlauncher just as an updater it would be really helpful an option to use it just as a launcher.

chrlauncher /start /ini .\chrlauncher.ini could force starting chromium instead of trying to update it.

I just found out that the issue appears only if chrlauncher is already open from a previous execution. In this case the GUI opens and you need to choose "Start" from File menu, An alternative option to my request could be to allow chrlauncher to close after launching chromium.
