  1. It's a notification to let you know that whatever it's flashing over has something going on. So if it's on the default browser option, it means that you should select it to make MX the default browser. If it's over resource sniffer there is something available to be downloaded.

    Nothing to worry about, but I can understand that it's a little disconcerting at times.

  2. Assuming that this is related to flash as you seem to point out - first, check that Maxthon is using the most recent version by going here.

    If it shows that your version is not up to date, then follow the directions in the Adobe Flash & Maxthon thread. Ensure that you follow them exactly.

    Also can you advise where exactly you found the info to "rename NPSWF32_16_0_0_296.dll to pepflashplayer.dll". As far as I know, that is NOT related to Maxthon 4 and might be only for Nitro.

  3. No idea what's going on with your install. If you are in fact using MX3, that could be part of the issue.

    Testing with Zillow.com (i'm guessing that's the site you were referring to) it seems fine as far as I can tell.

    As shown below, the email address and password saved OK using the save form option in the context menu, and auto-filled correctly (shown by the yellow background). There are no errors that I have seen.

    Can you take a screenshot of the error in question?

    On your new/clean installs are you using a Passport account? If so, test with trying the website without signing in and see if you still have issues with it saving.

  4. Unless we're talking about something completely different, I think you're trying to get the Run... Launch in Firefox/Chrome command from the menu working with Maxthon?

    If that is correct then all you need to do is create a custom shortcut by doing the following:

    1. Select the Run... option from the menu.

    2. Enter the path to your maxthon executable (eg. C:\Maxthon\Bin\Maxthon.exe)

    3. Add the following to the command line - "$(FULL_CURRENT_PATH)"

    - So you should have C:\Maxthon\Bin\Maxthon.exe "$(FULL_CURRENT_PATH)"

    4. Select save, then select the required shortcut keys and type in a name.

    5. OK

    You should then have an extra option in the Run... menu, or you can use the shortcut key to open Maxthon and run the current file in Notepad++.

    Hope that helps.

  5. Any particular reason you are using NoAds? As Maxthon now comes with AdBlock Plus, I would have thought something like NoAds wouldn't be required.

    Otherwise hopefully the developer sees this and can offer some insight as to why it isn't working properly. At a guess i'd

    say that updates to Maxthon since NoAds was released have caused the issue with it.

  6. I've tried most of those options using a clean extract of the portable version from here, and you still get the weird crash where the UI seems to freeze with a glassy/blurry effect. You can't do anything till it stops. Doesn't cause CPU or HDD spikes that I can recall, just the browser stops responding for a while.

    I'm a big believer in fixing things at source

    "if the UA change does work for you I can't see an ...

    I'm sorry, but I still don't understand your hesitation to use the UA change as described assuming it works for you.

    Even if Maxthon did update the Linux version today, if they don't change the codebase to a higher version of Blink then the UA won't change as the whole purpose of the UA is to tell sites the general capabilities of the browser. As standard the browser should not be faking these details. But if you want to change/update them than that is a possibility.

  8. The config.dat file in UserData\Users\\Config is what stores the data for search from what i can tell.

    Assuming the ini file that you mentioned above is the same file, then as you found you will also lose a lot of other config settings. And as I said, and seems you found out, it seems that syncing will restore it from the cloud anyway.

    That "fixes" it for the default user. Logging in resumes the problem.This is what makes me think it's something to do with your config file.

    I'm not sure if there is a way to manually sync local data? Might have to look into that.

  9. Any chance of posting the HTML here, or at least the section with the offending code? (assuming it doesn't breach any privacy issues with the company).

    However I'm getting the error message (as shown on the last screenshot) and the site is not working anymore.

    Please advice is it possible to somehow workaround this.When running in Retro, ensure that the "Enable standard rendering in Retro Mode" option is checked in advanced settings to allow it to run with the current version Trident renderer. The page probably doesn't like running in IE compatibility mode which is what happens when that option is unchecked.

    I have installed the latest version.

    A few points:

    1. There is still residual cr@p left over from maxthon 2 and maxthon 3 in this system, which the maxthon uninstallers/reinstallers/updaters did not remove.The Maxthon 2 data doesn't affect Maxthon 3 or 4. The userdata folder for Maxthon4 is the same as that of Maxthon3 once installed.

    2. The only difference "a clean install" makes is that it removes your user details, but not all the other cr@p that causes problems -- i.e. it can cause new problems, but is unlikely to solve any.No, a proper clean install will remove all your userdata along with guest settings. You will be starting from scratch, although with the way the Passport account sync works, there is data that will get restored from the cloud.

    It must be either set within a DLL or the main executable, because manual changes to the human-readable configuration files are overwritten when the browser is restarted.There are no hardcoded default search settings.

    The default search for the address bar is set by the same one as for the search bar - Settings > Default search engine > Select your desired provider.

    If that is set to the correct one and this occurs then it's quite likely a setting could corrupted some how, which is why it keeps reverting to the old one.

    To test this try step #8 in the Maxthon Troubleshooting & Tips and Tricks thread. If it still happens, then test by doing #9.

    Please post your findings from the above and we'll move on from there. Basically if testing using either of those scenarios works, then it should be just a matter of deleting the offending file and the settings should stick once again.

    In .600 the only options to add a new list would be as described above or copy/paste the list into the "Create a filter" page.

    In the later test versions (as you're testing) new options have been added that will render this redundant.
