IDA-RE, who is not win32, releases a version of win32's dll, calls it progwrp.dll v. 1.2.0.5035 3. IDA-RE, who is not win32, takes down his work (progwrp.dll v. 1.2.0.5035) -- both the source and the binaries ∴ win32's Supermium is not open source, QED. ? So what? They share between themselves via PM. But no links in public. I also shared my personally written programmes with certain members. Some of them wrote similar software based on my knowledge and findings, My famous Chrome/Opera starter app., for example. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people don't appreciate our hard work and make scandals out of thin air. I also made Supermium starter app. But share only with the ones I want. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm asking Dixel if he's sure the source wasn't published (and not getting an answer). Also pointing out the question is not rhetorical &, not being a coder, i wouldn't know where to look. Not sure how i could've been more explicit. 6 minutes ago, Dixel said: But share only with the ones I want. having trouble reconciling this with 34 minutes ago, Dixel said: My famous Chrome/Opera starter app 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how i could've been more explicit. having trouble reconciling this with When you ask a question on a public forum, it means anyone is free to answer. So I'm answering. Many people started spreading rumours (based on nothing, no one ever gave any links) about Supermium being fully open source, and some even started to believe that, all until someone finally figured out: Supermium needs a special dll without which it doesn't work at all, meaning it's all close source in the end, I mean the whole browser. What's so hard to understand or why are you having troubles to reconcile? https://www.deepl.com/translator 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also pointing out the question is not rhetorical &, not being a coder, i wouldn't know where to look. Not sure how i could've been more explicit. I never saw any links to it. I only saw someone at github asked win32 to publish the source code to that mysterious dll file, but no answer. Usually it's at github, these days. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm having trouble reconciling how something shared with a small circle of friends could be thought of as famous. Horse-famous, maybe?

Dixel Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 3 hours ago, 66cats said: having trouble reconciling this with There was a leak, my first release wasn't protected with X-prot, so someone, someone I shared my app with, had hacked it and made another launcher app based on my knowledge, but it's nowhere near as good as the original, that person didn't know all secrets. Clearer now? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be odd to simply publish all of the source code of something which has *subscription mode* and paid Patreon versions, yes, I'm aware about the free github versions, too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how not publishing the source would affect people who wanted to support win32/needed an installer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
