The CEF4Delphi update made on February 22nd, 2022 replaced the Delphi component packages.

Lazarus users are NOT affected by this change!
  • Open CEF4Delphi.dpk if you use Delphi 7, 8, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2009, 2010 or XE. This package only has VCL components.
  • Open CEF4Delphi_group.groupproj if you use Delphi XE2, XE3, XE4, XE6, XE7, XE8, 10, 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4 or 11. This group has VCL and FMX components.
If you are upgrading from an old CEF4Delphi version please uninstall the component, restart Delphi and install it again with the new package or group file.
