Without talking to Alok I would presume it to be a privacy risk. After using/testing unmodified Google Chrome and then Epic there are a quite a few features missing for that reason.

I'll forward it to the Mother Ship.

I am  not aware of any for Epic, there are for Google chrome.

Install or use a malware program, you probably have been compromised. You might try deleting Epic after backing up everything then reinstalling Epic. Make sure you have a good connection when you reinstall.
Good luck!

It is determined by the algorithm a search engine uses. Typically Wiki results appear in the top tier. "If there is a specific site that bothers you so much that you don’t want to ever see it in search results ever again, there is a free Chrome extension that does just that. It’s called Personal Blocklist (not by Google). It’ll add a simple link “Block (domain)” to your search results. You can also import your whole personal blocklist."
Change search engines and see how different the results are.

Not yet though you can use Epic on Linux via WINE.  We LOVE Linux but we probably won't be able to support a Linux-based Epic for some time, we're a small team so supporting 4 platforms is already a LOT of work.

I suspect it has something to do with Windows as some versions are being deprecated or not supported, updated. If you search the forum there have been a number of problems with Windows as previously mentioned. You might check your firewall settings and see if Epic is whitelisted/allowed. Since I am not real familiar with Windows I would recommend you contact alok at hiddenreflex dot com. Hopefully he will get back to you promptly.

#58 Re: Epic Privacy Browser - Help & Troubleshooting » Problems with Epic » 2023-01-01 13:07:57

Perhaps it has something to do with your connection or the source for the download. Try this https://epicbrowser.com/thank_you.phpif you haven' already. Also Windows 10 has been a problem for some as mentioned in this post https://forum.epicbrowser.com/viewtopic … 722#p70722.
from Alok, Unfortunately, Chromium stopped supporting XP years ago...so we don't have an up-to-date security-wise version of Epic that will work on XP :-(.  I can't actually remember the last version of Epic that worked on XP; it was a few years ago.  I think Mozilla may still have an updated version that works on XP but I'm not sure?!

Enlist professional assistance. It's probably a result of something beyond EPIC's control.

#60 Re: General » How will Epic be affected by Google's Manifest V3 API in 2023? » 2022-12-12 03:57:41

Thanks for the tip, the article is worth reading and I'll share it.

#61 Re: Epic Mac Bugs » AdBlocker not working anymore » 2022-12-10 00:06:35

Thanks, that might be the problem as we rarely have had problems with Macs. I'll contact the mother ship.

#62 Re: Epic Mac Bugs » AdBlocker not working anymore » 2022-12-09 19:25:33

I would backup everything, delete Epic and reinstall  or update your macOS version if it's not up to date..  I'll do a little digging around and perhaps find something. What version of macOS do you have?

I had a similar problem during testing a while ago and the original suggestion helped but I actually deleted all extensions, rebooted and reinstalled.

#63 Re: Epic Mac Bugs » AdBlocker not working anymore » 2022-12-07 03:01:05

Turn off the adblocker in extensions, restart and then turn on. You might also reset Epic at the bottom of preferences under Advanced.

The version of Epic  for Mac you have is the latest. Nice to see someone searching the forum as there is a lot of info there sometimes.
If these don't work let me know.
Good luck!

#64 Re: Epic Windows Bugs » My epic vpn is saying its' not from the epic store. » 2022-12-04 15:28:45

Go to preferences, extensions, and check/enable the Extension Icon
Epic Encrypted Proxy. Restarting may help.

#66 Re: Epic Privacy Browser - Other Feature Requests & Ideas » Tabs and groups save/restore » 2022-11-23 23:40:31

I guess I do not understand the difference between the groupings you are talking about. I generally bookmark all tabs (shift, command, D) and give it a title then save it under a group or name Later you can open it and resume whatever you wish, discarding as needed. Of course this is semantics to me as it accomplishes the task you described and it's called something else. I'm sorry I don't understand.

Your other question , "Where is this restoration data kept?" should be directed to Alok, (alok at hiddenreflex dot com) as he was the programmer on Windows and perhaps will do better answering your questions.

Good luck!

#67 Re: Epic Privacy Browser - Help & Troubleshooting » Epic fails to install » 2022-11-23 23:19:36

Congratulations, sometimes Epic does not play well with older Widows OS. Thanks for the post.

#68 Re: Epic Privacy Browser - Help & Troubleshooting » Epic Diasappears and then Cannot Be Reinstalled 16 bit conflict » 2022-11-18 13:24:27

You can contact  alok at hiddenreflex dot com with your question  as posted.
"here is a weird one: Fired up my computer today and Epic disappeared off my computer.  Not a trace!  Then when  trying to reinstall I get an error that the install file cannot be run because it is 16 Bit and Win 10 21H2 does not support it!?  Any thoughts?"

#69 Re: Epic Privacy Browser - Help & Troubleshooting » Epic Diasappears and then Cannot Be Reinstalled 16 bit conflict » 2022-11-17 23:37:20

I know there are a fair amount of problems with Windows but I'm at a loss to help. I've never heard of that situation and I'll ask some questions.

#72 Re: General » deleted topic » 2022-11-13 20:42:37

I have had this before, I see Cloudflare is involved with this site so that could be a factor in the "defect" which could have something to do with it. Also I used Brave and had to disable the adblocker for "success".

#73 Re: General » deleted topic » 2022-11-13 14:13:29

If the adblocker is disabled for the site it functions properly!
I hope this helps.

#74 Re: General » deleted topic » 2022-11-12 17:40:36

Salvador
It was my fault, there was a large amount of spam on the forum and I must have made a mistake while processing it.

I'm sorry, please repost your question if you had one.
