Installed it without any problems

It must be my anti virus. It always installed before.

Redownloaded 64 bit exe and it installed correctly today. Custom background image on New Tab Page was removed however.

[cookiiiecrumble]

Will the custom background image be available again?

Hi caligula73, the mini search box will be added to the future version.?

Regarding the translation, Maxthon 6 is compatible with the Chrome extensions, so we currently recommend you use the Google translate extension.

Hi Zura, this known issue is still being analyzed. ?

Hi Magdalene, it seems that there is a bug regarding the new tab page background. It will be fixed in the next version. ?

1. Restore List is ridiculously narrow

2. MaxNote Popup doesn't have any sorting mechanism.

Hi cookiiiecrumble, that option has been added to the latest version 6.1.2.2700, so I recommend you to update the browser. ?

Hi Alpha07, could you provide me a screenshot of this issue? I tried to view the restore list on my end, the width is normal.

Hi Alpha07, request recorded

Hello!

Version 6.1.2.2700 (64-bit) 0903 (installed)

1. Today, once again, the download manager was unable to clear all entries... left 4 from yesterday, although there were 20+ from yesterday & another 6 from today that it did clear.

  Upon exiting Mx6 & reloading, the list was empty, so had been cleared, which means it's still a caching issue, as it's always been.

2. The poor download manager is the main reason we can't yet restart installing Maxthon on customer's computers, it simply isn't good enough!

  It needs to be pin-able, so can remain displayed while clicking elsewhere.

  It needs to display the list when the browse dialogue opens, BEFORE selecting location, so one can see what's already been downloaded.

  It would be nice to show the folder path in the list.

  The horizontal scrolling is clearly a joke with the icons to the right - either move them to the left, make the box resizeable or, better still, rather than be a popup, a resizeable window, like Mx5 was, would be better.

  The download list needs to be sortable too.

  Plus, I'd like to see total download speed listed (the sum of the download rate of all current active downloads).

3. The quick Launch still doesn't show website logos (taken from the websites) & the pitiful list that are built-in are mostly limited to USA versions (e.g. amazon.com, but not amazon.co.uk)... Just look at how Opera web browser does this.  When pre-setting up a selection of popular websites in the quick launch, it looks MUCH better to have company logos, rather than a screenshot or just partial name (just as much as fits)

4. Are there plans to implement DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH)?  Opera & Edge have it already & the next versions of Chrome & Firefox say they'll have it too...

Hi MichaelC362, are you using the Windows 7 system?

The "Pin" function will be added to the next version. And the download window will support the resize function in the near future. You could enable the status bar then check the "Download speed" option.

Windows 8.1 Professional, fully up-to-date

Surely the status bar download speed is from the network connection, not just Maxthon!?

If, for example, there was a Windows or software update running in the background, wouldn't that be included in that figure?

Since Maxthon is displaying the individual download rates, better to just add them all up & display within the download manager.

Hello @BugSir006. Some of my bookmarks disappeared this morning. Is this version-specific issue or you're making changes at server side? What's going on? Is there a way to roll-back bookmarks?

Thanks.

Hi grisp1, please try to use the local backup data to restore the bookmarks.
