Data being deleted on browser exit
Pablo(92131) replied to Pablo(92131)'s topic in Maxthon Support & Discussion
I tried installing the last two "non-beta" versions, 5.2.7.2000 and 5.2.7.1000, and now I am having the same problem. Every time I exit the program my log in information is removed. Very frustrating. -
Data being deleted on browser exit

Pablo, I came up with my own solution. You need to understand that anymore there is almost no help. Beta Beta Beta. I found a browser with real tech support where you are not a test subject. So far no usable answer to the problem i originally posted that is noted above(the first of the links) by Magdalene. I also submitted a bug report asking for help and here were are going on 5 days later and no response. I went back to firefox. Does everything i used his browser for. I am Beta free. - Yesterday

To BugSir006, Thanks for your help. As you suggested, I deleted the "Maxthon 5" folder and, after recovering my favourites, the browser is working well without crashing for over 3 weeks. I venture to say that my problem is now solved. Again, many thanks for you assistance. CRB.

Hello, All of my website log in information is being deleted once I exit Maxthon. This has never happened before. I don't have anything checked on the settings to delete data on browser exit. And today I tried installing the two newest versions and still have this problem. Has anybody experienced this?

Totally Agreed ! Security is the mainstay of this maxthon project. ¡It is useless to make extensions, or to correct something so simple, that one goes into the big problem, SECURITY.! -
wheres the updated versions to fix the bugs that are blighting the last releases in both branches wheres the release to fix the security hole that was spotted last week but has likely been around for months - it was agreed it was urgent - does that mean something different in China - like lets not bother if releases get any more extended you will be able to give them a year number - you [Maxthon] are becomeing a non entity in the browser market or thats how it seems if bugs and problems cannot be solved then say so - users stick by you in hope - be honest enough to tell them whats happening

Parts of browsing history found in temp folder
Kilmatar replied to 7twenty's topic in Maxthon Support & Discussion
I am ashamed, but I am the root cause of this problem. In November 2018 I found issue with MX's history on my work computer. History collection is stopped at 2018-10-10. This problem was taken by developers into work and the first step was changed MxHistory.dll file. This private debug DLL was have an added functionality - extensive logging of history tasks. Problem is still not fixed for now (6 months) but it looks like somehow this private debug version was leaked to production branch! -
violent monkey plugin not working in 5.3.8.500
Magdalene replied to cphx's topic in Maxthon Support & Discussion
This bug has been around for several versions of Maxthon. The Violent monkey developers will have to fix or update it -
I need to disable and re-enable this tool everytime I start maxthon in latest version
-
Yes

Fair enough.

Today I tried to use my maxthon account and after closing the program all the links are still in MX_LOG_21.log. This bug is serious -
I have both unchecked. Should I leave ''Enable Browser Security Protection'' unchecked?

"You'll change your mind about that when you hit 20,000 hours, kid!" It never ceases to amaze me how differently users look at features and feature changes. I didn't hate the integration of notes and bookmarks in the beginning, though I was pretty skeptical. Once I figured out how to use it — partly for leaving notes with the full titles of folders whose names had been truncated by Infobox — I got heavily vested. Most bugs or features I want to keep an eye on have a subfolder under "Maxthon" with a note that's just a laundry list of search terms to help me find that folder in the future.

I only mean that my native workflow is based around the install version. I considered using the portable exclusively once or twice, but I'm carrying forward some (very) old habits based around syncing my appdata folder and keeping notes related to programs there. The possibility of updating tweaks to individual files in the appdata folder when I updated versions held me off from it once, but it's been a long time since I've been editing those files by hand. Nowadays, there's the fact that I have other people using Maxthon under different Windows user accounts in my household and an install version allows me to keep all those users up to date at the same time. So I say "real world" only to mean the way that fits with the rest of my daily workflow, the way I'm likely to graviate toward when I'm not in a testing/experimenting mindset. There are definitely advantages to the portable version.

That was a mistake, I really hate that they merged those two, they needed to stay apart, me and a few other members agree with that statement XD I only have a little more than 12k hours ... 12079hours level 76 XD

Maybe you have a wrong impression of just what the portable versions are. They are every bit as "real world" versions as the install versions. They are all that I use any more and they perform just as the install versions do such that I can not tell the difference while using them. I haven't installed a version for my regular use in over 2 years; I installed one to help a user with a question to see if the installed version acted differently than what I was experiencing with my portable version, but found that that user's problem was not related to which type of version was installed and then I simply deleted the installed version. I also never get warned that my desktop icon is abnormal using the portable version, an added benefit. Please don't let the title "portable" turn you away from using it in "real world use".

Thanks for the clarification, @rick.lane. That's the picture I was starting to get of the Early Access Area, though it's taken me a while to cobble it together from what I've seen on the forum. I may be giving users a little too much credit in assuming everyone knows the risks and responsibilities of running a beta version. It might help to have different boards entirely for the latest official release and for the latest beta release. If betas for the next-generation series are going to be available concurrently with betas of the next release of the current-generation product, I definitely recommend segregating them into a separate area. I like having the installer versions of betas available because (as I described above) I like to run with the beta in real-world use as much as possible. But maybe, if betas are going to be publicly accessible, only the portable version shoud be posted. (If the URLs stay consistent, those of us who really want to install them can figure out where to point Maxthon to download the setup .exe. )

I've been having issues today with Maxthon crashing when I open the Maxnote tab (mx://note/). At first, I thought the crash may be occurring when i switched folders, but it seems to be a problem building out the center space/file listing part of the page. I tried opening and immediately switching to "My File" (rather than the chunky folder that was already selected when I opened the tab), but it still crashes. The Favorites sidebar is working fine. Also, I can open the Maxnote tab fine on a different computer running the same version of Maxthon (5.2.7.2300). Both installations indicate the Maxnote contents are in a "Sync completed" state. I'm thinking something happened to a local file during a crash this morning — but I'm hoping to avoid deleting my local Favorites file and resynchronizing/redownloading everything from the cloud, as that usually takes most of the day. Any ideas?

What you are referring to as the "pre-release channel" is formally called the "Early Access Area" and it still exists, and is only accessed by those that have special clearance. Unfortunately, the developers are not using that area as much as they used to and in my opinion that is where the first versions of the 5.3.8.x releases should have been posted so as not to confuse regular but knowledgeable and concerned users, like yourself. Also in my opinion, there have been way too many complaints concerning these versions but the only ones that seem to understand what is going on and how to deal with betas are from long time testers and insiders that know not to install betas such as these onto their computers. Most non-tester users aren't aware that when one installs a new version of the MX5 series that one's previous version is over written or even if one installs it into a new folder, the previous one is deleted, so there is no going back without re-installing the older version, hence my suggestion to use portable versions for testing. So, you are correct that the Early Access Area is most of the time these days mostly dead and it is disappointing that these 5.3.8.x versions were posted on the public forum way before they were ready, without having first been posted on the Early Access Area, and unfortunately many users joined the ranks of those that have left Maxthon behind.

So. I like Vivaldi quite a bit. I was skeptical of its mission statement and ambition at first, but their team has worked steadily make progress in the directions those early press releases pointed to, and I'm impressed enough with the browser that I use it almost exclusively for one of our Web apps at work, having gone so far as to install it on one of the utility computers where we use that app. But ... ... Vivaldi's notes don't integrate with Favorites in the same way Maxthon's do, and I've acclimated to having notes, screenshots, and favorites together in a single folder in Maxthon. Troubleshooting a problem at work? Create a folder in Maxnote, and in there you can put a link to the issue on the bug tracker, screenshots from users, e-mail reports you copypasted, your own troubleshooting notes, and maybe some other stuff I'm not thinking of right now. I like that. Heck, I wish Maxthon didn't segregate the views for different types of content when you're in the mx://note/ tab. I'd love to keep the same list on the left and just get slightly different main windows depending on the type of content I'm looking at. (But that's probably just me.) It's certainly the closest thing to a power-user browser I'm aware of, and the dev team's stated aims to bring customizability and functionality back onto the browser priority list alongside security and speed are music to my ears. It's a real competitor to Maxthon — and, for me at least, that's saying something. I like trying out new browsers (though I don't do as much of it as I used to), but suggesting I switch for my day-to-day use is like telling me there's another internet I should take a look at. I want to see that other internet, yeah — but give up the one that's been my window on the world for so long? :O @7twenty's always been pretty fair about Maxthon's accomplishments and its stumbles. It's part of what make his such an asset to the community!

And just to be sure, make sure that the checkboxes at Menu>Settings>General>Default browser are NOT checked.
