Skeez Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 I used to be able to click on Manage Magic Fill, choose a web page, then click on EDIT or SHOW PASSWORD, and it would show the info for that web page. Now every time I go to MF, I have to enter my Maxthon PW before I can see anything. I recently changed computers and had to download Maxthon. Is this a feature of an updated version? If so, can I go back to an earlier version of Maxthon? Or is there any way I can override this? I find it to be a pain in the rear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeleteThisAccount-Please Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 It's for security. What if someone goes on your computer and wants all of your passwords for the sites you use? Or someone hacks your computer? That would be too easy for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree all those security constraints like UAC etc may be tirering, on the other hand people want more security and complain every time they think there's a security breach....

Skeez Posted July 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 The Maxthon I used the past 3 or so years never asked me for a PW. So, there's no way around this? Blah.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skeez Posted July 24, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 Since I'm using a different computer I'm not certain what I used before, but I posted on October 19, 2016 that I was using v4.4.6.1. That's my best guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
