Constant login prompts


Recommended Posts

Since one or two versions ago (I´m on 7.3.1.3400) Maxthon keeps asking me to log in every time I start the browser. I keep selecting "login using guest account", but it is annoying to do it every time I close and restart the browser (which can happen several times a day).

It even generated some kind of random pseudo account, that I cannot delete, or even set/chnge its password as it uses an invalid domain (@mx.on).

I am not interested in configuring a Maxthon account to log in., I prefer to keep using the guest mode.

Thanks.

Hi ArielOjosVerdes, kindly delete the account that appears. The development team is aware of the bug here and will rectify the issue in the next version.

Cannot delete the account. If I remove it from the list of logins and select "sign in  with guest account", the browser keeps logged in with the same account.

And If I go to Account Information and select the option to Delete the account, I cannot complete the process because mx.on is not a valid email domain

I am already at 7.3.1.3800 and the behavior is exactly the same

Hi ArielOjosVerdes, could you go to Settings < General < Open your account local folder

once the folder window appears, close the browser and rename the file Account.max\

After renaming, try open the browser and see if you could press on the bin icon to delete the guest account.

After renaming the file Account.max to Account.max.old and restarting the browser, Maxthon no longer asks me forcibly to log in.

If I click the Login to Maxthon link, I see the users list and I see Guest(local) where there was that random user Maxthon created previously, dc552de1@mx.on

My issue seems fixed this way, I don`t see more reason for following this up.
