Over here, libcef.dll is in C:\Program Files\TheBat!\CEF

"Wrong version" is an error I have encountered regularly and reliably when I downgraded to a past version, and then re-installed the current version. Somehow, when you re-install, the libcef.dll will not be overwritten.

What I do now when I switch between versions is that I back-up the libcef.dll first, making sure I know which libcef.dll belong to which TB version. Then I overwrite whatever libcef.dll is there after upgrading/downgrading.

Note: For some reason, if you just install the next beta or release version over the previous version, this problem does not exist and the libcef.dll will be updated. It only happens when you go back or forward, even when using the .msi file.
