# Updating the Windows .order files | |
Since [#824529](https://crrev.com/824529), order files are no longer used for | |
linking Chromium on Windows. Instead, the linker orders the binary contents | |
based on profile-guided optimization (PGO) data, using LLD's call graph profile | |
sort feature. That provides similar benefits and uses use the existing PGO | |
infrastructure instead of requiring maintenance of the order files. See | |
