Ambroos,

You can add AnyDVD 6.5.4.0 to the list. I just attempted an installation, and I received that error. CloneDVD installed perfectly.

even last last release works fine, probably the first time they used it to stop people seeing how they decrypt bd+ (wouldnt have thought it was for piracy as iirc its not fully cracked) scene releases with keygens exist but are useless if you have a new blu-ray and need to connect to there update server.

some versions of newsleecher also have this problem http://www.newsleecher.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=18197

Realtek audio drivers problematic until I right clicked the setup.exe > compatibility tab > compatibility mode > Vista sp1 and voila installed perfectly.

same for Comodo firewall x64, CCleaner, RegistryCleaner x64, RegistryWorkshop x64 and running portable apps in a ramdisk.

Qsoft ramdisk enterprise x64 works well in this version. (auto 50% of 8GB)

I've got a question about Themida. I know it is a software protection product designed to prevent software from being "cracked" and uses encryption. But considering Themida is used by many virus writers, keylogger writers, etc., to conceal their malware, what could the advantages of Themida possibly be? Because no one can be absolutely certain that if and when Themida is detected by AV scanners and such whether it is malware or a legit product.

Good point. As it's that frequently used by virus writers etc., it's probably even better if it doesn't work :laugh:

The authors of The Bat etc. had better looks for something else.

I was hoping you might be able to answer my question from the previous page. I'm really quite curious:

From the previous page:

Well, for things like Spotify it's important because if their protocol would get hacked or if too many people got insight in their application it would basically mean free music for everyone. And I think that most AV solutions are smart enough to see the virus through the Themida loader.

Their protocol was hacked months ago. http://despotify.se/ I agree though that people shouldn't hack it. The record lables are too anti-internet already.

Bull****. Daemon Tools works fine. If you can't get it to run check the thread on it here in the Windows 7 beta forum.

I can't get The Chronicles of Spellborn to run, as I discovered when I thought I'd try it out last week. Apparently this is a Windows 7 issue, so it probably isn't new to build 7077, but it has to do with some kind of anti-cheat software being unable to run. This is something that can be solved by the people who make the game, though, so hopefully an update will come soon to address the issue.

Aside from that, I've no experience with Themida and don't apparently use any applications that use it, because every other application I use runs fine.

Heck, Live MEssenger still crashes for me when it boots up on the Superbar. MS must love my crash reports!

APatch seriously breaks Windows Live Messenger in Windows 7 for me. Any chance you patched your Messenger?

Oh, really? How does it manifest itself? I never had that problem but maybe I'm not patching as much. Would be interesting to know what to look out for. :)

    • Secure Boot

      By cork1958 · Posted

      Simple answer is yes, you will still get the Windows updates and as long as browser is up to date, you will be good. Only thing secure boot does is protect you against boot level threats and make it harder to install other OS's. I've been looking into this pretty thoroughly lately myself as wifes computer has secure boot disabled plus my other, older computers that run Linux, don't have secure boot enabled. Have seen all kinds of questions about this on the Linux Mint and MX Linux forums. Just don't suddenly enable secure boot now.
    • Ford execs say they made a mistake when they replaced human engineers with AI

      How many other companies will follow Ford's lead? Or, have they already gotten lazy and become enslaved to AI--and now can't figure out how to get out of that mess.
    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval

      By TsarNikky · Posted

      Why would any self-respecting intelligent person follow any recommendation by Donald's GOP administration? With almost two years of fabrications, deceit, and blatantly illegal behavior, why believe them now? They had best be gone after the November 2026 election, so we'll wait and see.
    • AltSendme 0.4.1

      By Copernic · Posted

      AltSendme 0.4.1 by Razvan Serea AltSendme is a minimal, cross-platform application designed for fast, secure, and private peer-to-peer file transfers. It allows users to send files or entire directories directly between devices without relying on cloud servers, accounts, or any personal information. Everything is encrypted end-to-end using modern protocols like QUIC and TLS 1.3, ensuring both strong security and low-latency performance. Transfers are verified with BLAKE3 for data integrity, and interrupted downloads automatically resume, making the experience reliable even on unstable connections. You can transfer anything—images, videos, documents, and more. Integrity checks are performed on both ends, so your files are automatically verified for correctness during both sending and receiving. AltSendme works seamlessly across local networks or long-distance links, capable of saturating multi-gigabit connections for extremely fast delivery. With built-in NAT traversal and encrypted relay fallback, it connects devices almost anywhere. The app integrates with the Sendme CLI and will soon support mobile and web platforms. Fully free and open-source, AltSendme offers a lightweight, privacy-first alternative to traditional cloud-based services, removing size limits, upload costs, and unnecessary data exposure. AltSendme 0.4.1 changelog: Release Highlights Self-hosted relays: Run your own iroh relay so transfers don't rely on public infrastructure. Includes a full deployment template in deploy/relay/ with Docker Compose for a VPS and configuration examples for production use. Fly.io support: One-click deploy template for Fly.io, including a quick-start config (fly.dev.toml) for testing without a custom domain, plus production setup with Let's Encrypt and your own hostname. Relay settings UI: New Settings → Network panel to choose how AltSendme connects: automatic public relays, custom self-hosted URLs (with optional auth token), or disabled. Test connections, verify latency, and see live relay status in the footer. Disable relays: Turn off relay servers entirely when you only need same-network transfers (e.g. LAN). Direct connections only. No relay hop required when devices can reach each other. Android graduates from beta: Android is now part of the regular release cycle alongside desktop. APKs ship with each version (universal, arm64, and armv7). Other improvements Private relay access control via shared auth token Relay fallback notifications when a custom relay is unreachable Broadcast mode toggle in sharing settings Android release build fixes (split-per-ABI APKs, universal APK preservation) UI polish: mobile safe-area insets, dropzone layout, transfer progress animation Bug fixes for minification-related serialization issues and system tray icon loading What's Changed feat(relay): add relay status functionality and settings UI (a120cdf) feat(relay): implement custom relay server configuration and verification (51276c7) feat(relay): add configuration for private relay access and enhance observability features (48fbabf) feat(relay): enhance relay URL validation, display connection status (d4fffa0) feat(relay): add RelayChangeGuard component and enhance relay-related translations (16ba514) feat(broadcast): add toggle setting for broadcast mode in sharing UI (ca6d977) fix(relay): correct QUIC discovery port, pin image, templatize fly.dev (52a2ba5) fix: More broken serialization due to minification (67491a9) fix(android): preserve true universal APK across per-ABI builds (e9f256f) fix(ui): conditional safe-area insets padding on mobile (1182f0e) refactor(transfer): CircularRing component animation fix (944572b) chore(android): drop x86 and x86_64 release APKs, keep universal+arm64+armv7 (34ada0b) Download: AltSendme 0.4.1 | ARM64 | ~9.0 MB (Open Source) Download: AltSendme for MacOS | Android Links: AltSendme Home Page | GitHub | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • Why Delta Chat is the best decentralized messenger you have probably never tried

      By zikalify · Posted

      You are mostly right about the ephemeral nature of it. As I mention in the article, if you dont add a second device or take a backup of your account before uninstalling it, then yes you will lose access to your account. That said, in terms of actual user experience when you sync multiple devices your message history carries across and there's also a Saved Messages chat like there is on Telegram to send messages and attachments between your installs. But yh, what you point out are correct and its not trying to emulate Messenger or Telegram.
