MajorPrivacy 0.99.5 introduces several usability and security improvements. The settings panel now includes new checkboxes for minimizing the application to the tray and for enabling single-click behavior on the tray icon, allowing users to tailor interaction to their preference. Process rules have been enhanced with parent-child enforcement, providing stricter control over how applications are allowed to spawn and interact. It is now also possible to import and export individual rules as well as enclaves with their associated rules, making backup, migration, and sharing significantly more convenient.
This update relocates the firewall reset action into the service to ensure a more consistent and reliable execution across all privilege levels. Several issues have been resolved, including a failure to run MajorPrivacy as Administrator caused by process protection, and a problem with QtSingleApplication that could lead to multiple instances launching when started from an elevated context.
