What's new in 0.13.8
🌟 Highlights:
- New loading screen: Added a splash screen with spinner during application initialization to eliminate the initial "blank screen" and provide immediate feedback that the app is loading.
- Script improvements: Added new privacy options and fixed several scripts for Windows and macOS
- Gamer-friendly: Windows "Strict" preset is now more gamer-friendly with Xbox scripts no longer recommended and moved to their own dedicated category.
- Bug fixes: Minor bug fixes for scrollbar issues in UI, desktop application and in compiler.
- Performance: Minified HTML/CSS/JS resources reducing file size by ~33% for faster initial loading.
Note

privacy.sexy version history
0.13.7 Dec 4, 2024
This patch improves Windows scripts, compiler validation, and fixes several bugs. It also fixes some minor UI issues, and auto-update bug on macOS desktop version. Key Windows script improvements include enhanced better Defender management, new phishing protection options, and fixes for Edge/Chrome privacy settings.
📝 Note for macOS desktop users
privacy.sexy now clears update files, but before they were not cleared by the operating system.
Some update files may have been accumulated on your system, taking storage space.
Open terminal and run this command: rm -v /var/folders/*/*/privacy.sexy/*-installer.dmg to clear them.
This bug is fixed and you'll only need to do this once if you used older versions of privacy.sexy desktop for macOS.
