Ship and install chrome_wer.dll

Adds chrome_wer.dll to the installer manifest (chrome.release)
and during install sets regkeys to allow the module to be loaded
by WerFault.exe after uncaught exceptions.

The chrome_wer.dll WER runtime exception helper module must be added
to the registry under the RuntimeExceptionHelperModules[0] key. The
value's name is the path to the module, which changes with every new
version of chrome, the value's DWORD value is arbitrary. Keys are
written with the same bitness as the installed Chrome as they must
match the bitness of chrome.exe/chrome_wer.dll.

Prior to Windows 10 20h1 the module will not receive exceptions we
are interested in so does not need to be registered. However
registering it is harmless, so we add a registry entry for all
Windows versions to reduce complexity in the install/uninstall
steps.

Logo Chromium

Chromium is an open-source browser project that aims to build a safer, faster, and more stable way for all users to experience the web.

The project's web site is https://www.chromium.org.

To check out the source code locally, don't use git clone! Instead, follow the instructions on how to get the code.

Documentation in the source is rooted in docs/README.md.

Learn how to Get Around the Chromium Source Code Directory Structure .

For historical reasons, there are some small top level directories. Now the guidance is that new top level directories are for product (e.g. Chrome, Android WebView, Ash). Even if these products have multiple executables, the code should be in subdirectories of the product.

If you found a bug, please file it at https://crbug.com/new.
