Some items in Read Aloud mode are not translated due to missing required strings in the language file.

Hi zork, noted will report this to the development team.

Good to see that this version doesn't open locked tabs blank

And that opening thunderbird's links is not broken

Thanks

Hello!
Upgraded to 7.1.6.1800 beta this morning, manually shut down running Maxthon at start of installer, when complete, Maxthon loaded with my 8 tabs I have set to load at startup, but, all of them just said, "Untitled" in the tab description & none of them loaded until I went to each & refreshed the page.

Hi MichaelC362, could you disable all extensions and relaunch the browser to see if this issue persist?

It only did it on the first load - afterwards & today it was ok, however, when I next upgrade, I can try that first.
I have uBlock Origin, DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials & Webroot's Web Threat Shield (that last one not by choice!).
These are quite popular extensions, so are you saying Maxthon has issues with (some?) extensions?

Hi MichaelC362, there's a possibility that some interference occurred between a certain extension and the loading of websites / certain features. Which is why we usually advise user to disable all extensions and try again before determining if it is a bug.

I should say, it didn't do this on any previous upgrade, with the same tabs set to load at startup & with those same extensions present & running

I should also report that the download manager still shows occasional duplicate entries, which are not removed when clearing the list, implying cache issues (which has been cleared & didn't help).
It's done this since Maxthon v6 was first released & is been reported every few releases.
It happens on different computers, with different versions & releases of Windows & with different extensions (I always have an ad-blocker (previously Ad-Block Plus, then Ad-Guard & now uBlock Origin), ever since you removed the built-in Ad-Block Plus).

When downloading ".exe" installers, most (but not all) also still don't have the program icon, but instead either my user icon or just a blank icon - this has also been an issue since v6 first released.

Another (maybe) issue, I goto softpedia.com (I see this on other sites too) most days to download updated versions of various programs & each day, when I first goto the site, I'm prompted for cookie action (e.g. allow all/custom/etc), separately for Windows, Linux & macOS (i.e. if downloading a Windows program, prompted for first, but no others after, but if then downloading a macOS program, prompted again (& again if Linux))... this could be related to one or a combination of my extensions, but I see it both at work & at home... I'll try disabling the extensions, one by one, & see if that helps & report back

Hi MichaelC362, noted on this. In case if it happens again, do let us know and I will get the development team to check on it.

Thanks MichaelC362, I have tried accessing the website but wasn't prompted for cookie action; neither when downloading. In case same thing happens after you disable the extensions, do let us know and we will perform further testing to check.
