Forwarded from AdGuard channel in Telegram:

AdGuard Ad Blocker v7.16 for Windows: beta 1. We need your help!

With this update, AdGuard for Windows finally transitions to 64-bit. This is a big deal. Most Windows PCs today are 64-bit, they can operate with more RAM and generally do stuff quicker. And while for AdGuard specifically the benefits from switching from 32 to 64 bit aren't huge, they are non-zero. In very simple terms, the app will work a bit faster now.
This change is massive in terms of work it required from us, and it still demands immense amount of testing. This is where you can help us: give a go to this beta if you have a 64-bit OS and let us know if you face any issues. Your feedback is paramount!

2 hours probably doesn't count for much but so far I have not had any issues. I updated, rebooted (was not prompted to but seemed like a good idea) and have been testing with Firefox and Edge.

https://adguard.com/en/versions/browser-extension/release.html#version-42240

I've had problems with this update on two machines.
First took inordinately long, but then worked.
Second one just didn't want to complete. Ran out of patience, and tried uninstalling (including uninstall utility), unbinding license, reinstalling. Nothing worked, not even WingetUI with previous package.
In the end, restored Macrium disk image and rebound license. It's telling me now 7.15.1 is latest?

AG 7.16 beta 1, beta 2 & stable = here no problems.

Dec 22, 2023 = 7.16.4539 (CL 1.13.108, DL 2.4.35 )

I think the newest AdGuard app update runs faster.
Maybe, it's just my observation.

AdGuard Browser Extension 4.3.13, Release date: January 31, 2024
https://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/adguard_adblocker.html
------------------
AdGuard Browser Extension 4.3.13, Release date: February 5, 2024
https://adguard.com/en/versions/browser-extension/release.html#version-4313

What is the core of any ad blocker? The correct answer is “filter lists”. Once AdGuard is enabled, rules in filter lists are responsible for making web pages look nice and clean. It’s essential to keep the filter lists up-to-date. But every time there is even a small change in a filter list, a problem occurs: the ad blocker needs to re-download the whole list. That sounds pretty inefficient.

In this version we have added differential update capabilities. Now instead of fetching the entire filter list, the extension will only download the changes that were made in a list since the last update. This also helps us to achieve a more efficient and user-friendly experience by reducing bandwidth consumption, minimizing latency, and decreasing server load. To put it simply, now AdGuard can download filter lists updates much more frequently, so you will enjoy the most efficient ad blocking.

We have also fixed the problem that occurred when users tried to access websites with enabled Stealth Mode options in the extension settings. Rules did not work correctly, so some websites wouldn't open. We have fixed this issue, so now the rules will disable Stealth Mode when it’s necessary.

We have also fixed some minor issues as well as improved the performance and stability. We hope you’ll enjoy the new version of AdGuard Browser Extension 4.3.

AdGuard Assistant 1.4.1, Release date: March 14, 2024
https://adguard.com/en/versions/assistant/release.html#version-141

Our epic journey of adapting our browser extensions to Manifest V3 is still on, and we've hit another milestone! Now the time has come for your faithful companion in ad-blocking: we are ready to announce AdGuard Browser Assistant v1.4, fully adapted to MV3.

While using the extension, you may not even notice any difference in your user experience or in its overall functionality, but make no mistake: a lot has changed. Due to the limitations of the new API, adapting extensions to Manifest V3 is a laborious task, but the work needs to be done — slowly but surely, extensions are hopping on the MV3 train.

Thanks to the hard work of our developers, the transition to this new API will be smooth for you. Managing your AdGuard desktop apps directly in your browser? Still a piece of cake, even in the wild world of MV3!
