Reinstalled Windows to 32 bit


Recommended Posts

K, so Windows was running way too slow (Win 10 Pro 64) So I added some RAM and dropped it down to a 32 bit.  Just an FYI.  Anyways, after I reinstalled Maxthon its having a couple of issues I have questions about:

1.  It didn't import my plugins like it usually does

2.  There's all of this stuff on my "Most favored" toolbar that wasn't there before - some of it is bookmarks I had but they were not most favorited, some of them are stock links like bing and stuff I can easily get rid of.  If I remove them from the most favorited list it won't actually delete the bookmark will it?

3.  Probably should have been number 1 because it is most important - and this started after a big windows update a couple weeks ago - EVERY time I open the browser it pops up with the little windows dialog box asking me if I want to allow the program to make changes to this computer.  It's super annoying but I don't want to lower my entire set of security settings just for this.  So how do I make an exception?  It's doing the same thing for my son on his computer (Same OS) he is running Maxthon 4 because I don't think he is ready to switch yet, and once he set it as his default browser it stopped asking him if he wanted to allow it to make changes to his computer.

4.  Every time I set it as the default browser it pops up with a windows notification saying the default browser has been reset to edge.  Help?

Sorry for all these questions at one time - I am just working with a reformatted C drive and a fresh install of windows so everything is reset and I am trying to figure it all out.

Thanks guys!

PS - How do I export my bookmarks again, so that I can back them up on my computer?

Hi atern, thanks for your feedback. We've confirmed this issue and it's related to Microsoft, not so easy to solve. But our developers and product managers are searching a solution for it. Will let you know the result once we find out how to solve. :1f60b:
