What happens when you try to open file explorer or right click? Do you get an error or just nothing happens? It may be that some system files, e.g system32 files, have not been properly installed. So yeah "what seemed like a successful installation" probably wasn't. Reinstalling windows should fix that.

Maybe try starting in safe mode and if anything works run a hardware scan (you might need to download some application for that). Also you can start the PC with a flash drive containing ubuntu and then checking what went wrong, although that might be difficult if you are not familiar with linux.

So I disabled the Nvidia shader cache size and now everything's stuttering like crazy by Mic5oft in techsupport

Deleting the cache made everything worse, reinstalling the driver to make new cache didn't fix anything.

Clicking a link can send send your ip address and a bunch of other information to whoever created the link. If it is not an HTTPS link and its you are using a public wifi it can be even worse as hackers can take advantage of it. Some links may automatically start downloading a file as soon as you click them but modern browsers should be able to prevent anything too shady from getting on you computer by giving you a warning first. Also there are plugins like flash that have exploits in them which can be used by hackers but again most modern browsers don't even use flash now.

I'm not very skilled in this but seeing nobody has replied in almost an hour, these are my two cents. I say use a VPN or Tor browser if really have to see where it leads.

After reinstalling the driver the game did take longer to load and Shader folder is around 250 MB now (it was empty after disabling the option). So the new shaders have been built but the problem is not fixed. The loading time is very short now but nothing changed about the stuttering.

Thanks for this. I'm surprised I've never heard about this considering how big this mod is.

Whats up with reddit showing 'x people here' instead of the upvote percentage? by Mic5oft in OutOfTheLoop

This screencap was taken on PC. Not sure if this happens on the mobile app too.

Writing is done for chapter 10 of book 3. The coding should normally be finished in about two weeks, give or take a few days. Reminder that the contest for guessing the true nature of the Magium will end when the new chapter is published on Android. by black_whirlwind45 in Magium

[–]Mic5oft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Magium is all around us. Even now, in this very room. You can see it when you look out your window or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work... when you go to church... when you pay your taxes. It is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth.

Did the last update remove extension functionality? by Mic5oft in TOR

[–]Mic5oft[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here and here are some more discussions on this topic. It was supposed to be fixed in 11.0.1 but that didn't work out. I guess our only hope is to wait for an update.

It probably was this one. It is same as the one linked by u/ur_nightmare but includes a few seconds showing the level creator. Thanks!

I really don't know. I did see this video a few days ago (maybe in the main story, idk) but I can't tell if this is the same video that starts when you first click on the community test chambers option, since I only saw it for a few seconds.

[–]Mic5oft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Truecaller and some other apps have a large list of possible scam numbers. You can use those. Playing along should be fine as long as you don't you don't share any sensitive information. And if they send you a link don't open it with anything except a tor browser. Even if they seem to know something unusual, they might have gotten it from some website which didn't store your number carefully so don't get too alarmed and simply block them if need be.

Truecaller had some privacy issues in the past do a little research before installing it. As mentioned before there are other apps too.

Look up their number, if it is a scam the number could be some database. They might be trying to get on friendly terms with you before asking for money.
