New Features Computer Security Configuration forum - New Features and Changes in 2019

[Handsome Recluse]

You made a good point there, so I named my configuration accordingly to discourage anyone from using it.
We need some bad configs on the other side of the spectrum, so people can see, what it is not supposed to be like.

Information overload though. The cost of switching and learning is high. Easier to copypasta.
Too complicated to setup tag

Just an "overkill" red tag.

Yes, I eat at airports. "You pay for excess baggage"

harlan4096, I did inform the site administrator of the error (gamming, should be gaming) via PM but to date, this hasn't been corrected. It should be, for such a professional site. If this is ever corrected, I'll consider posting my configuration, seeing as this is partly a GAMING computer.

A lot of really good setups posted already, have to say.

Also reported, hope it will fix soon, sorry for the inconveniences!

I would want to say thank you to @Jack @harlan4096 and all others Staffs for improving Security Configs (my favourite MT forum) it will not be easy to reply to all! There are too configs!

Again I agree with you.

Using the MalwareTips theme Midnight, I notice on the members' PC Configurations, the Staff notes are not shown when I'm signed in. They are visible only when signed out. I can understand this if those in a "read only" mode are perusing the configurations but I think it should be visible in all modes. This occurs in both Firefox and Edge for me.

Alread reported to @Jack! thanks!

This exists in other sections too like the new Kaspersky giveaway page by Exterminator @harlan4096. Please report this to @Jack too

 

[Deletedmessiah]

Its fixed now

Is it possible to add office and pdf software in the computer security configuration?
For example, a tool like Hard_Configurator also protects Microsoft Office and Adobe applications.
So we can give better advice if we know what software people use on their configs.

@harlan4096

Forgive me maybe the question will seem trivial, but is need to update my security configuration from 2019 to 2020?

I noticed that all forum members are performing this task even though there are no substantial changes.
Can you explain the reason to a novice like me.

Thanks so much.

P.S.

Wouldn't it be enough to edit the "old" 3D?

 

[harlan4096]

Usually old configs are moved to archived section, but Yes, You may edit and change 2019 to 2020

Thank you very much.
Needless to do this job if the configuration is identical.
Although your improvements, as explained in the initial post, allow forum members a more in-depth customization.

And you tell this only now?!
i think Harlan want to get butt kicked by me ! hahahaha
P.s: not sure you can edit the old since our 2019 threads are locked.

 

[harlan4096]

I meant You can edit to 2020 the previous 2019 if created recently BUT ALWAYS BEFORE MOVED TO ARCHIVED SECTION obviously once there You can't edit the config... the locking of old configs it's not immediate nor automatically, and usually there are a few hours of margin when You can do it...

I know there are some forum users that created a new config in the last days of 2019...

i did updated the title to 2020 few weeks ago, but it was archived anyway, forced me to copy-paste the fields, which was unnecessary wasted time.

 

[harlan4096]

So, then probably I'm wrong, but this question should be asked then to upper Admins, since I do not perform the movement to archived...

Same here. But how hard was that anyway?
