Kernel-mode Hardware-enforced Stack Protection in Windows 11 22H2
Windows 11 22H2 has a new security feature: Kernel-mode Hardware-enforced Stack Protection.
All current versions of the Magic Utilities device drivers (including version 3.1.3.1) are not compatible!
Dark mode has been added to the web site
Today we added dark mode to our new web site for all the night owls . Let us know if we missed something.
The new website is live
We have been quite busy setting up our new web site, the old framework gets no more updates in a few month. While it looks almost identical the underlying CMS has been updated and a lot of external dependencies have been removed.
If you read this and find something which isn't working (as expected) please let us know.
Seasons Greetings 2022
We wish all Magic Utilities users a Merry Christmas and a Happy new year 2023.
Version 3.1.3.0 BETA
Note: This version supports Windows - 64bit only, more details here.
This release a pure bug fix release.
Windows 10 - 32bit support will be discontinued
When we started the Magic Utilities more than a decade ago our goal was to support any Windows version from Windows 7 upwards and we did for many years.
Things have changed. We already stopped new features for Windows 7+8.x. With Windows 11, Microsoft dropped 32bit support all together.
We did some statistical analysis and found that less than 0.1% of our sales are for any Windows 32bit version, that's less than 1 in 1000.
As building, testing and signing 32bit drivers is a time consuming task, we decided to discontinue Windows 10 - 32bit support sometime mid 2022.
This means older Windows 10 - 32bit versions will still be available for download and installation, but they do not get any further updates.
Version 3.1.2.8 BETA
This is a major maintenance and new features release for the all Magic Utilities apps.
It's based on former version 3.1.2.5 BETA but with additional fixes and features.
Version 3.1.2.9 BETA
Note: This is the last version with Windows 10 - 32bit support, more details here.
This release fixes some glitches and adds new features for the Magic Keyboard and Magic Trackpad.
