Maxthon PC 7.2.2.3001

Getting locked out of sites by looping cloudflare verification after clearing cookies/data.

Ironically cleared verification almost immediately using other browsers.

Maxthon is really getting from bad to worse.

Mind you, I've been using it all the way since Maxthon5 over 12-13 years ago and have shrugged off and put off all the issues that came before but these recent few releases really takes the cake in terms of unusability.

The dev team should really sit down and decide where to go from here. If it's decided to shut down, then so be it. But stop pushing out broken products with every version and frustrating your loyal users.

once upon a time there was MY IE2, then MX 2.3.4.5.6.7

i'll keep watching MX rolling away, i use it for fun and i'm pretty well

maybe Ming Jie Chen could tell you what's gonna happen

i'm looking into my crystal ball but i think it's too small to see the future

I used the browser address bar not the google search bar

For some reason it doesn't work on mine. Inputing and hitting enter on the Quick Access page google search bar works though. It just doesn't work on the main address bar on the browser. I cleared all browser cookies, restarted browser etc, but still no joy.

Also, there used to be an arrow icon at the end of the address bar that works like an <Enter> key when you click it with the mouse. Even that has disappeared as well, so idk what is going on.

@ Cookie Monster

Enable Smart Address Bar in Settings.

I'm guessing that you are referring to an installed version. My portable version still indicates version 7.2.2.3001 (64-bit) 0723, but there is a note saying: Nearly up to date! Relaunch Maxthon browser to finish updating: unfortunately relaunching accomplishes nothing but rather returns to the same screen with the same note and does not update the browser.

Ha! Found the culprit!

The Smart Address Bar was always toggled on but upon your suggestion, I took a look anyways and played trial-and-error with the sub-settings not really expecting anything to happen.

So this is how it looks:

And the culprit causing all my problems:

image.thumb.jpeg.3a56ecd9b094357c659724a413cce2ff.jpeg

Now all 4 sub-options are on just to play safe.

But why was the option off in the 1st place? I search from the main address bar a lot and I only noticed this issue from the last version (v7.2.2.3000).

Thing is, I almost never go into settings to mess with them.

I wished I saw your post before I wiped everything off and did a clean install. Now I gotta tweak everything back to my liking again.

But boy am I glad the issue is solved. It's been driving me crazy.

True

Hi Cookie_Monster, could you please provide the website for us to test it out on our end?

Hi rick.lane, are you still not able to update the version?

On default user agent (Chrome109), Maxnote works fine but my banking site flags it as an outdated brower and refuses to log me in.

On updated user agent (Chrome127), Maxnote breaks (just a blank black page) but my banking site now allows me in.

Hi Cookie_Monster, kindly provide the banking website to us so we could look into it.

Hi rick.lane, could you try to extract the portable version to a new pathway and not overwrite the previous version?

I never overwrite a previous version of portable versions. Each one is a separate extraction/installation. I do copy the user data folder from the previous version

Hi rick.lane, noted and have reported this bug to the development team for them to look into it. For the time being, could you download the latest version manually?

I have downloaded the latest version of 7.2.2.3200 from the forum post and it installs and works well. I never got it to update itself. Thanks for trying to help.

I disabled all extensions. No luck.
I always backup my User Data folder because every couple of version we have the same issue.

I disconnected from internet, restored my old User Data folder (delete the existing User Data and copied the old one) which every password is there. But when connected the internet after some time all passwords wipe outs.

It is the version 7.2.2.3800 somehow messed up the data in the cloud side when updated a day before. Because even I returned the 7.2.2.3600, copy/paste previous User Data folder which everything's fine.  When I connected internet (thinking it syncs from cloud assuming) and wipe outs the passwords.

Same thing happens when I restore from Local too.

I am using portable version

Please help.

Thanks

 

P.S: I barely remember we used to restore from cloud online backup via login to our Maxthon Account in MX5 and MX6 back in the days. Is it still an option for MX7?
