Is there any chance there is a program just like .hta applications only it supports HTML5, CSS3, jQuery, etc? I'd love to be able to run my local files without chrome...

Anybody know if this exists? Maybe even some way to make .hta application fully support those programming languages?

HTAs use IE's Trident rendering engine. There's no way to switch it out for another one. Which "functionality of chrome" were you hoping for, anyway? If your HTA can use the latest IE engine, there's not a huge amount to choose between them. HTML5, CSS3, jQuery as you mentioned should all work. - ADyson

<meta http-equiv="x-ua-compatible" content="ie-edge">

This gives functionality of edge into a .HTA file.

Very handy!
