Waiting for all the 3....I want to replace WFC with W10 FC. Have already been using Adguard from many months, thanks to your tutorial about backing up the rules. I might give a try to Acronis once you post its tutorial;)

Is this the reason why Adguard started today to revert to trial mode? BEcause of that I used Go2Crck dll files and it works fine.

 

With new HOSTS entry, I can use old Patches again?

Jime234, reset your hosts file to default and switch-over your hostname/domain blocking to better programs like AdGuard or Simple DnsCrypt or Windows 10 Firewall Control or Acrylic DNS Proxy (or any other alternative of your choice.)

Yep, AdGuard had a time bomb built into their new release — they might've made changes to the IPs, as well (just didn't have the time to Wireshark the same.)

LoL, AdGuard has started playing dirty — an IP which was previously being used to update extensions, is now being used to call home:—

104.20.31.130

I have inserted all 3 HOSTS entrys, reinstalled Adguard with Patch by Zer0 (works again, thank you) and updating Filterlists still works fine... I think. Anything to know at this point?

AdGuard folks have a total of 5 IPs to play around with — they might try rotating those IPs as they did with 104.20.31.130 (only time will tell — we shall continue to post any such updates on this thread, though.)

The hosts file on Windows does not possess the capability to block IPs — it can only block hostnames or domains.

 

To block hostnames or domains, though — one can use either 0.0.0.0 or 127.0.0.1 (0.0.0.0 would be slightly faster.)

i did tests its best block with host

0.0.0.0  api.adguard.com
0.0.0.0  api-b.adguard.com
0.0.0.0  ip.api.rec.adguard.com

 

it seems this one 0.0.0.0  api-b.adguard.com is the one that blocks keys   so block all them is best

with patched dll no need but again cant hurt

All the 3 hostnames are responsible for performing a license-check resetting activation — the priority is in the following order:—

  1. api.adguard.com (highest priority — makes 2 license-checks at every pass)
  2. ip.api.rec.adguard.com (medium priority — makes a single license-check at every pass)
  3. api-b.adguard.com (lowest priority — does not always make a license-check like the previous two)

when i say best i mean its best for users without firewalls and things like

 

but yes u is right but i have seen in someolder version sometime they use injections.adguard.com with host

but again is much ways to beat adguard check  i mean in the toolbox in vip we used to just host block api.adguard.com

but like u said now  they check  in more then one way   so now they use api-b.adguard.com   i have not seen ip.api.rec.adguard.com  be used yet maybe i am wrong on that but i can check  more if need  

 

but i see 2 or 3 ways to fix this program

 

what people need to understand is when keys get blocked it not real blocked it just change the fontcacheev1.dat in side C:\ProgramData

injections.adguard.com is a script that belongs only on the add-on (extension) version of AdGuard (program version has local.adguard.com, instead) — it should never be blocked.

Just try allowing the hostname ip.api.rec.adguard.com to access the net — your copy of AdGuard will immediately lose its activation. ;)
