start two instances

12 years ago, by Andrew in NetWorx Forum

This may be more difficult then. By saying you have two wireless networks, do you mean: 1) Two wireless networks to which you connected with two wireless cards at the same time or 2) Two wireless networks to which you connect separately (one or the other) with one wireless card.

Re: Encoding problem

It's a bunch of random Chinese character and they appear because of a bug in NetWorx. Quite a few users have reported and I am currently investigating this.

Then I recommend to have two portable instances in different folders. Each can be set to monitor a specific network only.

Generally two or more portable instances work well. What do you need the two instances for?

Issues with Task Manager in Windows 8.1 x64

12 years ago, by Andrew in RAM Disk Forum

I would really appreciate if you could enable kernel memory dumps as explained here and try the latest RAM disk build. If it works, that's great. If not, we'll have valuable information for identifying and fixing this issue.

Settings windows visible op startup

Not sure what you mean as we haven't changed anything in that area in the latest release. What do you mean by clicking the wrong part of the window may result in exiting?

Tick the HDD emulation option on in the RAM Disk's properties. It may be a bit slower, but unfortunately that's the only workaround yet.

Resizable windows?

The current devices window can be resized freely as you can see below. We'll make the Known devices window bigger and resizeable, thank you.

Added in the latest build.

Re: Redirecting http requests from a particular IP to an external web address

12 years ago, by Andrew in Bandwidth Manager Forum

Yes, it's possible. However it only works for incoming connections (that is those coming to or through the BM machine) and you need to be cautious not to create a circular loop, where the redirect gets caught again and is redirected again, etc. What's your scenario?

How to block P2P traffic

12 years ago, by Andrew in Bandwidth Manager Forum

There is, however it's not guaranteed. Some connections and P2P applications can still pass through. First, make sure P2P is ticked here: Then in the advanced rule settings tick P2P and set that rule's rate limit to Blocked: A better approach would be to use so called penalties, which allow you to restrict connections. For example, if you throttle any connection that has downloaded mo

We seem to have fixed the locking issue. Please try the latets build and let me know if it works okay. You will need to uninstall your existing installation first and reboot.

Thank you for the detailed report. We have a couple of fixes related to the locking of a disk. I will post a test version shortly.

Re: Impossible to use the designated unit, swap-file has been created on the other drive

12 years ago, by Andrew in RAM Disk Forum

For Windows temporary files, for example. Programmers use it for building their apps for temporary files emitted by a compiler. If you are a home user, then it's mainly page cache for web-browsers and Windows temporary files, that's probably it.

Is RAMDisk helping the game simulator?

12 years ago, by Andrew in RAM Disk Forum

Probably not. Especially given it's old, it should just fly on a modern computer regardless of its specs.

Application usage tracking

Yes. It's the same version but it contains a fix for these characters.

Where from? A text file? Only IP addresses. See File - Import IP/Host Name List in the main menu.

Networx Desk Band disappears

When it disappears and you right-click the spot where it's supposed to be, does the NetWorx menu pop up?

Re: Impossible to use the designated unit, swap-file has been created on the other drive

12 years ago, by Andrew in RAM Disk Forum

Because by design the swap file is used by Windows to store RAM pages in it It's like storing RAM in RAM. You can read more about it here.

Application usage tracking

Could you please try the latest build from here. Delete all records from the Application and view and let me know if these weird "Chinese characters" appear again.

Re: Impossible to use the designated unit, swap-file has been created on the other drive

1. Make sure you creating a boot-time RAM disk rather a logon-time. 2. Make you sure you do not tick the HDD emulation on that disk. 3. Better avoid placing the swap file on a RAM disk as this is a bad idea. If your system has lots of RAM, you can turn it off completely.

Ignore LAN traffic issue since 5.2.9

What about this build? Does it also cause the issue?

Application usage tracking

12 years ago, by Andrew in NetWorx Forum

It's apparently some sort of a bug. I received another report today where it was Chinese characters. I will double-check the application tracking code and try to figure out where it went wrong.
