Falkon for Windows

Falkon is a free and open-source web browser that's built on the QtWebEngine. Previously known as QupZilla, this browser provides a refreshingly minimal interface. These include a built-in ad blocker, a convenient bookmark manager, and speed dial for quick access to your favorite sites.

You'll also find an intuitive system for managing your browsing history and downloads, keeping your digital life organized. The KDE project actively maintains Falkon, prioritizing a clean, resource-light design that proves handy for everyday web tasks. As a cross-platform tool, it is accessible to you and consistently receives updates, for a modern and secure browsing.

Simple, secure, speedy

Falkon offers a clean interface with essential tools conveniently placed for quick access. You'll find features like tabbed browsing, a customizable speed dial, and an integrated ad blocker. It also includes standard tools such as a cookie manager and a browser history viewer. The bookmark manager offers folder organization and easy import or export. Its codebase is built using Qt and C++, which allows it to deliver smoothly.

Privacy and basic customization are integral to its design. It allows you to control cookies, cache, and session data through simple options. The browser also includes a certificate manager, giving you visibility into secure connections. Settings offer simple toggles for enabling or disabling JavaScript and images. Themes are available for adjusting their appearance. These features all function without added complexity, sticking to its minimalist purpose.

However, it does not have a full-featured add-on ecosystem like other major browsers such as Google Chrome. Instead, it relies on native options. While this limits advanced configuration, it keeps the environment uncluttered. Built-in tools, such as the RSS reader and simple password manager, work as expected but without extra depth. It focuses on delivering its core features without diverting into advanced browsing capabilities.

Uncomplicated web access

Falkon is a basic, Qt-based browser that provides key browsing features with minimal extra functionality. It delivers a simple tabbed interface, ad blocking, and essential privacy tools, while skipping advanced extension support or complex customization. It's ideal for uncomplicated web tasks, aligning with the KDE project's focus on clean, functional tools. Though it lacks some features of larger browsers, it remains a focused, resource-light option for general browsing.
