@macuser usually those are announced here as a direct link. We did not roll out any of our Tahoe fixes as Apple fixed the bugs before Tahoe went live.

Are you having issues with a current release?

@fluxhelpme yes you can set the wake time one hour earlier for now.

@rich-vine1252 there is a toggle in the "f.lux > Color Effects" menu that makes f.lux do this switch automatically. It should be off by default, but it sounds like you want to make sure it is off on your Mac also.

@Alfal yes this is a known issue and reported to Microsoft - we usually see it happen once per f.lux session.

@guillaume1978 this is because the dock does not provide traditional color controls, so f.lux has to emulate them using the GPU.

If the dock happens to be a DisplayLink one, you can sometimes add these controls back using the registry: https://support.displaylink.com/knowledgebase/articles/1886413-how-to-enable-night-light-or-f-lux-on-displaylink

Probably this is legitimate - we have shipped a "root-only" version in the past that doesn't ask for permissions, but root is a different level of privilege.

@DCRnash We did this on old dual-GPU macs from the 2012-2015 era. We found they would switch from discrete to integrated GPU and load the system colors, but not the f.lux ones.

On newer Apple Silicon macs, there is no switch (since there is just one GPU) and so we don't have to build a profile to keep things working. It's better in most cases for f.lux to be a "temporary" effect. But in case you somehow wanted the old behavior, it might still work with a pref - check out: https://justgetflux.com/news/2014/10/28/profile.html

@Sreten you are right that not all of these appear on the Mac, we will make a note to add them in the future

@f-lummoxed good memory, there was an easter egg and it needs two things:

the Preference in the registry* for "candle" has to be turned on you have to hit the 'c' key while the f.lux UI is up

It got turned off during one of our "don't do things that the user can't figure out how to undo" cleanups... but the pref is still there.

HKCU\Software\Michael Herf\flux\Preferences\candle = REG_DWORD(1)

@ahartline808 yes it will prompt until you give it a location, but if you use the "working late" preset it will not pay attention to solar time. It's probably easier to give it the location and then use a preset that ignores it.

@Moisey we currently don't test DisplayLink on macOS, but we might in the future.

@cxuj6464 It really depends on what the GPU manufacturer is doing (sometimes things break in driver updates since Win7 was EOL in 2020) - I would try a few different drivers (maybe older ones) to see if Win 7 support still works using those.
