[ANSWERED][EX-100 - 1.9.3.0] [RS3 Build 16299.19] - Problem with understanding new privacy options

Hi@All

first of all, the winreducer update mechanism ( in v1.9.2.0 ) still told me, there is no new version. Don't know why, so I updated manually.

My problems in understanding are the new privacy features, for example "Privacy - Camera - Let apps use my camera (Disable)" Off/On.


Ok, lets see ... ignoring the "(Disable)" means, "Let apps use my camera" is set to OFF, so apps can not use my camera, right ?
So... "[size=13]Let apps use my camera (Disable)" set to OFF must be the opposite, so apps can use my camera - I think.

[size=13]And set it to ON, means, apps can not use my camera ?[/size]


[size=13]Perplexing choises, double negative -> positve ... I think, or am I wrong ?[/size]

The trouble with the new version detection has been solved few minutes ago ... thank you very much for having informed me

You are correct on this point, this is exactly that ... in other words, put on "ON" status (a privacy component in EX-100) will disable the "Privacy" option in the "Settings" privacy tab once your system will be installed

And for information, in v1.9.3.5 (VIP Closed Beta) and v1.9.4.0 (Stable) there will be some color improvements and orders lists changes in order to improve the "User Interface" and "User eXprience".

I wish you to have a nice day !

hey winter, wouldnt it be better to invert the logic in winreducer? so

"Privacy - Camera - Let apps use my camera (Disable)" Off/On.

now disables this if set to ON, which is a bit irritating because of "Let apps use" "Disable" and On / OFF





remove the (Disable) so

"Privacy - Camera - Let apps use my camera" Off/On.

and when  set to ON the option will be on and to disable it set it to off


so it would mean "Let apps use" -> (no i dont want that) so OFF (disable it)

Ok, thanks for explanation
