This commit updates documentation to clarify the impacts of disabling
firewall services, specifically how they affect Windows Sandbox, Docker
and WSL.
This update responds to user feedback from issues #115, #152, #364. The
documentation now guides users more clearly on the consequences of their
actions, potentially preventing unintended service disruptions.
Changes include:
- Expand the caution notes to explicitly mention the impact on
virtualization and isolation features like Windows Sandbox, Docker and
WSL.
- Expand script titles to briefly mention affects on these features.
- Expand documentation to suggest system restart.
- Add an informative message to restart the computer in terminal outputs
after service changes to ensure the settings are applied.
This commit introduces a custom error object to provide additional
context for errors throwing during parsing and compiling operations,
improving troubleshooting.
By integrating error context handling, the error messages become more
informative and user-friendly, providing sequence of trace with context
to aid in troubleshooting.
Changes include:
- Introduce custom error object that extends errors with contextual
information. This replaces previous usages of `AggregateError` which
is not displayed well by browsers when logged.
- Improve parsing functions to encapsulate error context with more
details.
- Increase unit test coverage and refactor the related code to be more
testable.

This commit addresses failures in end-to-end tests that occurred due to
`ResizeObserver` loop limit exceptions.
These errors were triggered by Vue dependency upgrades in the commit
aae5434451.
The errors had the following message:
> `ResizeObserver loop completed with undelivered notifications`
This error happens when there are too many observations and the observer
is not able to deliver all observations within a single animation frame.
See: WICG/resize-observer#38
his commit resolves the issue by controlling how many observations are
delivered per animation frame and limiting it to only one.
It improves performance by reducing layout trashing, improving frame
rates, and managing resources more effectively.
Changes:
- Introduce an animation frame control to manage observations more
efficiently.
- Centralized `ResizeObserver` management within the `UseResizeObserver`
hook to improve consistency and reuse across the application.
This commit updates the Vue package from v3.4.21 to v3.4.27.
This version change addressed styling issues introduced by changes in
CSS universal selector handling in Vue 3.4.22.
The change that has caused this:
- vuejs/core#10551
- vuejs/core#10548
- vuejs/core@54a6afa75a
This commit fixes two main issues that this has led to:
1. Universal CSS selector causing 'Revert' buttons to stretch and
truncate incorrectly.
This is fixed by modifying selectors to apply styles more
specifically, maintaining correct display of toggle buttons.
2. Universal `*` selector that's used to understand parent HTML
structure causing information tooltip icons to be misaligned.
This is fixed by replacing `*` with a new `InfoTooltipWrapper`
component, which manages layout concerns more explicitly and
maintainably.
Previously, quality checks were mistakenly configured to run only on
Ubuntu.
This commit modifies the CI/CD workflow to use the matrix strategy,
allowing the quality checks to be executed on macOS, Ubuntu and Windows.
Additionally, this update resolves the `MD034/no-bare-urls Bare URL
used` linting error that surfaced when testing on Windows.
This commit transitions from HTML-based issue templates to GitHub issue
forms, enhancing user experience by preventing accidental submissions
with comment-like metadata. This change makes submitting issues more
intuitive and reduces the chances of user errors (such as #355).
Key change include:
- Use a friendlier tone in the templates.
- Detail examples and descriptions to guide users more effectively.
- Rename templates for improved clarity and easy navigation.
- Add "a note from the maintainer".
- Include a direct link for donations to support the project.
This commit introduces a universal binary format in the distributed MDG
files for macOS, improving support for both Apple Silicon (ARM) and
Intel (x64) architectures.
It uses `electron-builder` to package both architectures into a single
executable, ensuring the application can natively on any macOS hardware
without depending on the GitHub runners' architecture. It fixes the
issue related to prior releases that supported only the architecture of
the build environment itself, which is subject to change.
Changes:
- Update DMG distribution to include both ARM64 and x64 architectures.
- Enhance system requirements documentation to reflect support for both
architectures.
- Modify CI/CD workflows to check desktop runtime errors for both ARM64
and x64 versions on macOS.
Resolves:
- Issue #348: Initial request for Apple Silicon support.
- Issue #362: Correction of distribution limited to ARM64 in release
0.13.3.
`electron-builder` support:
- electron-userland/electron-builder#5475
- electron-userland/electron-builder#5689
- electron-userland/electron-builder#5426
The recent addition of revert logic in first visible card on Windows
(Privacy Cleanup) in cec0b4b, introduced an issue where end-to-end (e2e)
started failing due to the handling of hidden elements.
This commit improves the test to correctly handle the hidden card
scenario, explicitly filtering visible elements to ensure that only
visible elements are handled.
This commit standardizes the management of registry keys and their
corresponding revert on delete action across all scripts using
`SetRegistryValue` function.
It improves script reliability, addresses previous errors, and corrects
the revert actions to match the default OS state when not explicitly set
by the OS.
Key changes:
- Use SetRegistryValue for uniformity.
- Remove error messages for non-existent registry keys, recognizing them
as expected states rather than errors.
- Add missing revert actions to scripts where they were absent.
- Correct the revert logic in existing scripts to match the default OS
configurations, particularly when the OS does not set a default value.
- Update documentation about default OS state for the related scripts.
This change improves maintainability by centralizing and standardizing
registry interactions, reducing the risk of errors and inconsistencies
in script behaviors.
The GitHub workflow for testing Docker builds on macOS was consistently
failing. This commit downgrades the macOS version used for Docker tests
to `macos-13`, which is the latest Intel-based macOS runner, instead of
the ARM-based `macos-14` which `macos-latest` points to.
This change is necessary because the hypervisor framework required for
Docker is not supported on the ARM-based macOS runners provided by
GitHub. This issue was causing failures when attempting to run Colima
with QEMU using `-accel hvf`, which is unsupported on these runners.
Switching to an Intel-based runner resolves this issue.

This commit adds checks to rjeect functions with empty or whitespace
names. The compiler throws a specific errror when it encounters a
function data object lacking a proper name.
This provides early detection and clear feedback on invalid function
definitions, helping in faster debugging and ensuring script integrity
in the compilation process.
The enhancement aims to provide early detection and clear feedback
on invalid function definitions, aiding in faster debugging and
ensuring script integrity in the compilation process.
when it encounters a function data object lacking a proper name.
It covers scenarios where the function name might be an empty string,
undefined, or solely consist of whitespace.
This commit restructures the categorization of network security-related
scripts to improve clarity and align with user expectations. It involves
renaming and reorganizing categories to more accurately reflect their
functions beyond just IIS configurations.
This reorganization helps users find and utilize network security
scripts more efficiently and ensures that the categorization accurately
reflects the broader application of the scripts beyond server
configurations.
Changes:
- Merge network security enhancements under a single category.
- Rename categories for simplicity and increased technical accuracy.
- Flatten nested categories to streamline navigation and enhance
clarity.
- Update documentation to match the new category structures.
- Revise script recommendations to encourage broader use.

This commit addresses the issue where Windows GitHub runners experience
failures due to unstable Node.js releases, particularly version 20.13.0,
as detailed in nodejs/node#52884 and nodejs/node#52682.
The 'check-latest' input in the 'setup-node' GitHub Action forces
every job to verify and potentially install the latest Node.js version.
This input was originally introduced to reduce maintenance efforts to
keep CI/CD setup up-to-date with the latest Node version.
However, the necessity to always run the latest Node.js version is not
critical for the CI/CD setup. Additionally, it causes increased network
requests and may inadvertently introduce unstable Node.js versions.
This commit removes the 'check-latest' option to prevent the immediate
adoption of new, potentially unstable Node.js releases, thus simplifying
the CI/CD pipeline. This keeps CI/CD process is robust and predictable,
reducing the chances of unexpected disruptions in service deployment.
This commit addresses an issue in Chromium on Linux and Windows where
the appearance of a vertical scrollbar causes unexpected horizontal
layout shifts. This behavior typically occurs when the window is
resized, a card is opened or a script is selected, resulting in content
being pushed to the left.
The solution implemented involves using `scrollbar-gutter: stable` to
ensure space is always allocated for the scrollbar, thus preventing any
shift in the page layout. This fix primarily affects Chromium-based
browsers on Linux and Windows. It has no impact on Firefox on any
platform, or any browser on macOS (including Chromium). Because these
render the scrollbar as an overlay, and do not suffer from this issue.
Steps to reproduce the issue using Chromium browser on Linux/Windows:
1. Open the app with a height large enough where a vertical scrollbar is
not visible.
2. Resize the window to a height that triggers a vertical scrollbar.
3. Notice the layout shift as the body content moves to the right.
Changes:
- Add a CSS mixin to handle scrollbar gutter allocation with a fallback.
- Add support for modal dialog background lock to handle
`scrollbar-gutter: stable;` in calculations to avoid layout shift when
a modal is open.
- Add E2E test to avoid regression.
- Update DevToolkit to accommodate new scrollbar spacing.
This commit fixes a bug that causes tooltips to be slightly misaligned.
Tooltip positioning was incorrect during modal transitions due to their
initial movement, causing tooltips to align incorrectly at the start of
the animation rather than the end.
One way to solve this would be using `autoUpdate` from `floating-ui`
with `animationFrame: true`. However, this recalculates positions tens
of times per second, impacting performance. This is a monkey solution.
This commit adopts a more efficient approach by updating tooltip
positions only at the end of the transitions, which reduces calculations
and conserves resources.
Key changes:
- Addd transition end event listener for updating tooltip positions.
- Use throttling to eliminate excessive position recalculations.
Other supporting changes:
- Improve throttle function to support efficient recalculations of
positions:
- Add ability to optionally exclude the first execution (leading
call).
- Refactor to simplify it make it easier to follow and read.
- Fix a bug where initial calls were incorrectly throttled if
`dateNow()` returned `0`.
- Introduce and use a global hook for efficient DOM event management.
This greatily introduce safety, reuse and testability of event
listening.
This commit addresses the issue where scripts fail to execute on Windows
environments with usernames containing spaces. The problem stemmed from
PowerShell and cmd shell's handling of spaces in quoted arguments.
The solution involves encoding PowerShell commands before execution,
which mitigates the quoting issues previously causing script failures.
This approach is now integrated into the execution flow, ensuring that
commands are correctly handled irrespective of user names or other
variables that may include spaces.
Changes:
- Implement encoding for PowerShell commands to handle spaces in usernames
and other similar scenarios.
- Update script documentation URLs to reflect changes in directory
structure.
Fixes#351
- Correct incorrect attribute in `configure_vscode.py`.
- Introduce CI tests for early error detection in the script.
- Replace emojis with ASCII in CI logs to avoid Windows encoding issues.
This commit refines the configuration of TLS and DTLS protocols on

This commit refactors the icon and logo generation process by replacing
multiple dependencies with ImageMagick. This simplifies the build
process and enhances maintainability.
Key changes:
- Remove unnecessary icon files for macOS (.icns) and Linux
(size-specific PNGs). Electron-builder can now auto-generate these
from a single `logo.png` starting from version 19.54.0, see:
- electron-userland/electron-builder#1682
- electron-userland/electron-builder#2533
- Retain `ico` generation with multiple sizes to fix pixelated/bad
looking icons on Windows, see:
- electron-userland/electron-builder#7328
- electron-userland/electron-builder#3867
- Replaced `svgexport`, `icon-gen`, and `electron-icon-builder`
dependencies with ImageMagick, addressing issues with outdated
dependencies and unreliable CI/CD builds.
- Move electron-builder build resources to
`src/presentation/electron/build` for better project structure.
- Improve `electron-builder` configuration file by making it
importable/reusable without prebuilding the Electron application.
This commit updates the application startup behavior to prevent showing
a blank window until it's fully loaded on all platforms. This enhancement
improves the user experience by ensuring the UI only becomes visible
when it is ready to interact with.
This fix contributes to a smoother user experience by aligning the
window display timing with content readiness, thus avoiding the brief
display of an empty screen.
Changes:
- Set window to initially hide until fully loaded using the
`ready-to-show` event.
- Show the window, focus on it and bring it front once it is loaded.
Windows requires additional logic to put Window to front, see
electron/electron#2867.
- Parametrize the behavior of opening developer tools for easier
configuration during testing.
This commit modifies the blocking behavior of `r.bing.com` due to its
extensive use across multiple Windows features, including Copilot and
Maps. Previously, included in the 'Cortana and Live Tiles' block list,
this host was causing issues for Copilot functionalites, as noted in
issue #329. By excluding `r.bing.com` from block list, this update aims
to prevent unintended disruptions without compromising the privacy gains
of other scripts.
Changes include:
- Exclude `r.bing.com` from the "Cortana and Live Tiles" block list.
- Improve documentation to clarify the role and exclusions.
- Improve documentation with consistent header for blocked hosts.

This commit improves the management of script execution process by
enhancing the way terminal commands are handled, paving the way for
easier future modifications and providing clearer feedback to users when
scripts are cancelled.
Previously, the UI displayed a generic error message which could lead to
confusion if the user intentionally cancelled the script execution. Now,
a specific error dialog will appear, improving the user experience by
accurately reflecting the action taken by the user.
This change affects code execution on Linux where closing GNOME terminal
returns exit code `137` which is then treated by script cancellation by
privacy.sexy to show the accurate error dialog. It does not affect macOS
and Windows as curret commands result in success (`0`) exit code on
cancellation.
Additionally, this update encapsulates OS-specific logic into dedicated
classes, promoting better separation of concerns and increasing the
modularity of the codebase. This makes it simpler to maintain and extend
the application.
Key changes:
- Display a specific error message for script cancellations.
- Refactor command execution into dedicated classes.
- Improve file permission setting flexibility and avoid setting file
permissions on Windows as it's not required to execute files.
- Introduce more granular error types for script execution.
- Increase logging for shell commands to aid in debugging.

certain IntelliCode backend services. This renders the remote analysis
feature obsolete.
- Revise the documentation to make it more accessible and easier to
understand.
On very small screens (that can be tested with iPhone SE size), the
`All` button overflows. This makes E2E tests fail with width like
`320px`.
This commit fixes the issue by removing `whitespace: no-break` but
employing simpler and self-documenting layout.
Key changes:
- Simplify scripts menu layout instead of relying on
`white-space: nowrap`.
- Increase gap when script menu items starts wrapping to avoid
"squeezed" look.
Other supporting changes:
- Simplify gaps by using `column-gap` and `row-gap` properties rather
than calculating margins.
- Use class-based styling instead of using `id`.
- Use more clear, consistent CSS class naming with prefixes in
`TheScriptsMenu` to improve maintainability.
- Introduce `center-middle-flex-item` mixin for better documenting the
code.
- Migrate feature disablement to PowerShell for clarity and robustness.
- Improve log outputs and error handling for missing or default-disabled
features. This fixes false-positive errors by treating the absence of
a targeted feature as a success condition, and treats features
disabled by the OS as non-issues.
- Fix revert logic to align with OS defaults, correcting previous
behavior that indiscriminately enabled features without considering
their default state.
- Fix usage of incorrect feature name for `LDPPrintService`, correcting
attempts to disable a non-existing feature.
- Standardize script recommendations for outdated or missing features
on modern Windows versions by recommending them on 'Standard'
selection, providing clearer guidance for users.
- Rename feature-related scripts for consistency with Windows display
names, improving consistency and script discoverability.
- Expand documentation for all feature-disabling scripts, adding
details such as display names, descriptions, and default states,
thereby informing users about the specifics and rationale of each
script.
- Rename `DisableFeature` function to `DisableWindowsFeature` for
increased descriptiveness and alignment with PowerShell conventions.
- Harmonize the use of the `DisableWindowsFeature` function across
scripts targeting various features, including SMBv1 and PowerShell
2.0 downgrade attacks, enhancing consistency and maintainability.
- Add code comments in the generated disable/enable feature scripts,
improving understandability for users.
- Add the ability to revert to default OS behavior for feature
enablement/disablement to align with OS defaults.
