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. :)

    • OK so SearXNG is a meta search engine that you can install locally or use via a public instance. It scrapes other search engines which you choose and then sorts the results. Not as complicated as multiple relays
    • The only difference here is that you think you came up with these reasons. You didn't. These age old fearmongering lies (that were NEVER true) were funded by and the anger stoked by Putin through proxies like Farage (and later in the USA, Trump) and filtered down through the skinheads, Neonazis, etc. until it reached the uninformed, ignorant, and gullible -- never realizing they were being played for fools against their own best interests. Even now, despite all of the EVIDENCE proving that Brexit was a terrible mistake for ALL citizens of the UK and that its supporters were tricked by Putin's proxies into sabotaging their own nation, you're still here defending these well-known lies as if they were ever true. Not only are they not true. They NEVER were. So, when are you going to realize that you were lied to and actually get angry at the liars and charlatans who lied to you, instead of blaming the innocent people they lied to you about?
    • Dupe of "Microsoft further improving Windows 11 Taskbar with latest builds", published <20 minutes apart
    • Dupe of "Windows 11 is getting redesigned taskbar settings in new build", published <20 minutes apart
    • Ooooh! Two editorial from Paul Hill on the same day! Is it my birthday or something? 😉 Okay, let's see if I get it right. SearXNG develops a meta-search engine app. Individuals install it on their relays. Users connect to these relays to have their own identity-stripping meta-search engine instead of relying on DuckDuckGo. And some of these volunteers have listed their SearXNG instances on SearX.space. That was a lot of wrap my head around. I hope I haven't missed anything.
