Major Privacy v0.97.1 BETA
🕑 Added 2025-03-04 17:53:42 +0000 UTCVersion 0.97.1 of MajorPrivacy introduces several new features, improvements, and fixes, enhancing both functionality and reliability. This update continues to refine the tool’s ability to manage privacy, security, and process control in modern Windows environments.
In this release, an optional user password cache is now available, allowing users to store credentials locally if desired, to simplify certain interactions. The tray menu has also been expanded, providing more convenient access to frequently used functions directly from the system tray. To improve visibility into network activity, additional filters have been added to the network views, giving users more granular control over what data is displayed.
Several significant changes have also been made to enhance usability and functionality. Signature verification has been reworked and improved. The Ingress record has been moved to its own dedicated file, separating it from other logs for better organization. Along with this, file naming conventions have been revised: AccessLog.dat has been renamed to AccessRecord.dat and TrafficLog.dat is now called TrafficRecord.dat. Since MajorPrivacy is still in beta, the old files will not be automatically migrated or cleaned up, so users are encouraged to manually delete them from C:\ProgramData\Xanasoft\MajorPrivacy if they are no longer needed.
Another important change is that, by default, no records (Traffic, Execution, Ingress, Access) are stored to disk anymore. This change reflects a stronger focus on privacy by default, ensuring that only users who explicitly choose to enable logging will have data written to disk. Furthermore, the services configuration file has been renamed to PrivacyAgent.ini to better align with the service’s role. Finally, popup notifications have been cleaned up to avoid showing redundant entries, improving readability and reducing noise in high-activity environments.
This release also addresses several critical bugs and compatibility issues. An incompatibility between ZwLockRegistryKey usage and HVCI (Hypervisor Code Integrity) has been resolved, ensuring MajorPrivacy works correctly on systems with HVCI enabled. Multiple UI crashes related to process protection and DLL loading have been fixed, significantly improving stability. Lastly, a crash occurring when setting the firewall filtering mode has been corrected, ensuring smoother configuration changes.
With these additions, improvements, and fixes, MajorPrivacy 0.97.1 offers a more robust and reliable experience, particularly for users working with advanced security configurations and detailed process monitoring needs.
