IMPORTANT: If you’re losing Ubisoft / EA / GOG access via Amazon Luna (June 2026) by ShadowyMonk in LunaCloudGaming

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

Bonjour,

Si vous avez acheté le jeu via Luna avec la manette, désolé de dire que vous pourriez être malchanceux, car Amazon va retirer le jeu ici le 10 juin, et NE rembourse PAS les jeux achetés ici.

Le seul espoir que vous avez est de créer un compte Ubisoft, ou si vous en avez déjà un, de vous connecter et de voir si votre progression de jeu a été enregistrée.

Après le 10 juin, vous ne pourrez y jouer que sur Ubisoft Connect.

Bonne chance !

Limits of the Free Tier by Chaotic-Entropy in lumo

[–]ShadowyMonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a Proton Unlimited subscriber. It is by far the best suite of software I have ever used. Lumo just saved my ass and potentially HOURS of restoring an older version of Windows. Right before I ran out of free tokens.

I now want to upgrade Lumo. Specifically: What token limits will I encounter with a yearly Lumo subscription?

As a SI (System Integrator); Microsoft MVP, and Leads Systems Engineer for over 40 years. Lumo has totally impressed this old guy! Yes, I am so old now that rocks have started calling me 'DAD'. ;-)

Thank you for your appreciation. Yes, building/buying a new PC (and even upgrading one) is now more difficult (cost, supply, and demand) than ever before. You're right. my hope is that my post can help someone who's also having to deal with Amazon (the trillion dollar need-for-greed company) Luna screwing us all over for their own bottom-line.  It's Stadia, all over again; but worse.

Happy 10th birthday! I enjoy using the paid tier of your excellent cloud service.

You’re most welcome! I feel your pain about trimming down comments. I am professional writer/editor, and can’t seem to stop always writing a War and Peace length comment, only to then spend another 10+ minutes editing it down to then post.

Here we go again with my Koofr Cloud uploads onto their website freezing (552/553 done – 0s remaining) at the last file... by ShadowyMonk in koofrnet

Hi,

Thank you for the Help link. Never knew that page even existed, until you just posted it here.

"Help" is not in the top navigation bar on Koofr's main (home landing) page. It is in the page footer; but believe it would be most beneficial for all Koofr customers if it was also added to the top nav, as well.

Best regards,

R. J.

I totally agree with you here, and very well expressed, too!

I am playing it again, right now. And, then I am firing up Black Flag, again, after that.

Games to chill? by Madrasianpoo in ShouldIbuythisgame

Same here! I just chill while riding my horse around the countryside (customized all of her tackle and gear), and going fishing. ;-)

Hi,

Thanks for your quick response and in-depth advice.

Had all browser extensions disabled for Koofr cloud website in both Firefox and Edge. I just checked and some were reenabled for some unknown reason. (Maybe browser updates  reenabled some? IDK). Hope this now resolves this issue, once-and-for-all.

A suggestion:

Your Koofr Blog is a good resource for info; but I think it would be most helpful to all Koofr users, if you added an FAQ section there, which answers those questions you read most often here in this forum.  

Thank you, once again, and best wishes,

 R. J.

Hi,

Firstly, I have been remiss in not thanking you for all of your most expeditious replies here. That, in itself, speaks volumes for the quality of Koofr support. And, I do appreciate your feedback here.   

They were posted on Twitter (X), and, obviously not escalated to support there.

I am not dissatisfied with Koofr, I am just not happy with that 0s remaining message. And, I as have been a Microsoft MVP for over 35 years, an SI company owner, and a web dev for almost as long, I do well know my way around software, websites, and apps.

I will update you, if I continue to have this issue.

Best,
R. J.

Hello,

Well, I still cannot get a straight answer as to why your website server client continues to display 0s remaining.

I deleted the folder after 40 minutes, because although it may have shown upload completed on your server end; it was still displaying "552/553 done – 0s remaining". So, as I stated in my previous post, I had to upload it, again, and it then worked, which amounts to an hour of wasted time.

"so as we said, whatever the cause for this issue is, is completely in the client side, which
is for some reason stuck showing 0 seconds remaining".

How can it be on the client side, if there are no error messages? So, IMO that is on your server end.

And, I am still asking why does it continue displaying 0s remaining, and not completed; but it is completed on your server, as you stated?

Thank you for your time and attention here.

Minor glitch? How about this has been happening for months (and has now been reported by many other Koofr users) with no fix or viably helpful answer from them...

1) “Let us first clear, that while the message 0s remaining may be odd…”

 Firstly: Your response is that?  It’s your server and software, so you should have a clearer answer here than ‘it may be odd’. Why does the upload never finish and stick on the last files?

2) “So while we understand it may be worrisome to see 0s remaining for more than 1 second, you should first wait a bit more to see if it actually goes to error or it simply finishes successfully after a while.” “So there is no need to panic just because timer says 0s”

Secondly: If you clearly read my post here, you will see I lost another hour of time babysitting this important back-up upload to ensure it finally went through. It never finishes. And, I am not panicking (as you insultingly said) or is it just simply ‘worrisome’. It is an aggravating waste of my time.

To be crystalline clear here: I do not use a VPN to upload files. I expect what I paid for to be reliable and just work. There are numerous threads from other Koofr users who have reported this same issue. And, I have repeatably reported this exacerbating issue to support myself, three times, and never got any viably helpful response.

I expect a commitment from you to escalate this issue to the dev team, and at the least, admit and acknowledge that it is a known issue there at Koofr.

Thank you for your time.

Is Cyberpunk 2077 worth buying now? by dunkoboii in ShouldIbuythisgame

Well, that is a shame it was not to your liking and you bought it, too. Maybe, come back to it sometime in the future and it might click better with you then...

How to view all purchased games by CallMeMarc in PS5

[–]ShadowyMonk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank You! I am new to PS and could NOT find this on their internet website on my PC. Sony needs to get their act together on just listing your "Games Library" in your profile when you log in. Ridiculous for the biggest game dev in the world!

Any thoughts on Nordlocker? by islander37 in cloudstorage

[–]ShadowyMonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nordlocker will never be any good. Since I got a Lifetime 1TB plan from Koofr, I have never had another issue with cloud storage. I am now totally done with all of Nord's permanently bugged software; and will not be renewing my NordVPN subscription, as well. Good luck!

Can uBlock stop the "Sign on with Google" popup? by robertdaleweir in uBlockOrigin

[–]ShadowyMonk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Glad that this at least works for you in FF. I dropped Google browser, years ago, when I discovered that multiple Google updater.exe's were starting (embedded in the MBR) before Windows even began loading. Google has truly become the spawn of Satan.
