→Problems: restored based on wayback machine
Up to version 2.2, the official installer for PJ64 included opt-out malware in the installer. In July of 2016, the malware was removed from both the source code and installers.<ref>https://github.com/project64/project64/issues/468</ref> However, version 2.3 introduced a benign but irritating nagware screen that pops up when launching PJ64 after starting it multiple times, which grows more persistent with successive launches as a forced waiting period is installed. This can be disabled by modifying <code>project64.cfg</code> to appear as follows: <pre>[Support Project64]Run Count=-1</pre> Alternatively, you can type "'''thank you from project64'''" as the notification code.
===Project64 2.4.0.1555 New Support Code Nag Scheme===
UPDATED MARCH 19, 2021 -There is now a per-machine ID that gets generated on the user side and requests a confirmation code associated with it.
-Setting the Run Count to -1 in project64.cfg no longer stops the nag.
-The "thank you from project64" code no longer works (obviously, since they are now unique for every machine).
