I don't think anything has even changed from 7.5.0244 to 7.5.0299, so I'm expecting an update soon, lol.

As there are a bunch of little things that need to be fixed.

And people always say "It's a beta, of course it has bugs.", lol, and now it's final, and nothing's been fixed.

God, I'm having a problem where my chat wiondows come up with nothing (and just now the main one), you can drag them around the screen but it shows whats behind them, as screeny shows. This build sucks. The only build I have had a problem with. Anybody know what to do?

Several times, I even tried with and without a-patch. It was working fine for a while (but couldn't get the custon games from mess.be to work), so I restored the original exe and then it started.

Ugly problem :s

Try checking that no other programs like ad-blockers or spyware scanners and the like are blocking it. I had the same problem with 7.5.0244 beta. AdMuncher was keeping it from working.

Don't worry about my problem, I fixed it. I updated my GFX card drivers (80.40's > 77.11) and removed those 2 registry trees, and restarted and installed again + patched. All working fine now.

    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      There is a lot of reasons not to use Edge but faster fixes and security updates is not one of them.

      Can't reproduce. I installed Edge, went to neowin.net > accepted the cookie consent > used menu to go to forums, everything loads and I can browse around the forums. If you can't interact with the dialog on the forums for some reason, go to the main site and accept the cookie consent there? It is true that the site will not function properly until the cookie consent is accepted or rejected,. it's a legal requirement and I also know that certain VPN/ad blockers block it, which is a user related issue and not a neowin.net problem.   This is not our cookie consent dialog. Gotta love browser hijacking... /s Edit: this may be what Californians see, I will confirm with our consent provider.
