I really wanted to play the new lego Batman but it only comes with the hypervisor launcher and I'm really sure it isn't that big of a deal but my friends say I'm crazy and that if I use it I should disconnect all internet connections on my computer and to disable it every time I stop playing and that my computer will implode or whatever. I know way more about computers than them so I'm pretty sure but wanted to check in with you guys since they plantes the seed of doubt in my brain and also it's a pain in the ass to restart the 300 times a day every time I want to open the game. Can I just keep DSE disabled and enable it when I finish the whole game?

>>108879750air gap your game machine
>>108879750it's too late, the lego batman is already in
>>108879750If you are using windows you should already never have connected it to the internet. If you did then might as well leave it on for this as it a little more AIDS won't make a difference
Fuck I forgot how extremely retarded /g/ users are, I'll leave you to your drooling I can do this myself
bumping this beautiful thread for you all to enjoy
>>108879750Just buy the fucking game, retard. Don't install sub-kernel level malware because you want to steal a lego game.
>>108879750lego batman sure is hard to crack, damn
>>108879750Just be patient and wait for the voices38 crack or a steam sale, there is a million other games to play in the meantime
$70 for this is crazy.
>>108879750the risk is not that something else would take advantage of your computer when it's in a vulnerable state. the chances of that happening are basically 0. the risk is that the hypervisor itself is going to bumfuck you, in which case running it even a single time is enough to get turbo aids irregardless of any "precautions" you can take.buy the game or wait for the crack.
>>108882536second, I believe this should be the caseso format pc and reinstall windows
There's hundreds of unprotected Lego games.
>>108882583a hypervisor can survive even physically replacing your hard drive because it can store itself anywhere data can be written. realistically, I would guess that unplugging everything from your computer (including power), removing your cmos battery, unplugging everything from your mobo, putting your cmos battery back in, flashing new mobo firmware, waiting however long it takes for the contents of your ram to guaranteed wipe, formatting all mountable storage devices that were connected to your computer since you first ran the game without mounting them, then putting the computer back together *should* be enough to defeat it.
>>108879750it could not be any more unsafe
>>108882716damn, that's fucked up, if that's the case I'm fucked, I'm not OP btw
>>108882752Hypervisors own your OS. Intel's Extended Page Table includes support for execute only memory. A hypervisor can mark certain regions of memory as execute only, and if your operating system tries to read or write to it, it can hook that call and can return something else instead, such as the contents of some other region of memory. It can intercept any CPU call your operating system makes and just do something else instead. That's exactly how they defeat Denuvo btw, they lie to the operating system and pretend to be a computer that results in a hardware identifier that is valid for the key the game is shipped with. However, it can do more than just lie to Denuvo, to put it lightly. It can also install a rootkit in firmware to make itself persistent. It can hide itself to any attempts by the os to read the memory region in which it resides.It is worth considering the possibility, though I have 0 proof of this, that groups distributing these bypasses could be state sponsored or similar.
