Today is the date: As we announced back in October 2020, our cross-signing kernel-mode certificate from DigiCert expired, which means we are unable to provide any new drivers for Windows 7 and Windows 8.

This kernel-mode signing certificate will not be renewed but it doesn't even matter:
From 1st July 2021 it is according to Microsoft "illegal" to cross-sign any kernel drivers.

All Magic Utilities versions until today will keep working but we are unable to release any new versions for Windows 7+8.

Version 3.1.0.5 is the very last Windows 7+8 version.

Sorry to all Windows 7+8 users: From now on we'll release only versions for Windows 10.

Official details here. More details here. More discussion here, continues here.

Final conclusion here.

Version 3.1.0.7 is the very last Windows 7+8 version.

We had some luck and could acquire the domain magicutilities.com.

Our plan is to migrate magicutilities.net and all belonging email addresses to this new domain, but this takes some time.

Version 3.1.0.4 is running quite smooth, so it has been released to the auto-update STABLE channel..
