I can guarantee the problem is McAfee. That one is really bad and just as paranoid as the real McAfee was and sees viruses where there are none. Get a proper antivirus like AVG (hell, even Windows Defender is better than that tripe). I think the only worse antivirus than McAfee is Norton (and only because it not only gives false positives, but also slows your computer to molasses).

Hello. I am working on a nesdev IDE that will make homebrew development easier. I want to include NEXXT as the dedicated CHR/Nametable editor in it, however lack of native Linux version prevents me from doing that. I want to include native versions of the tools when possible so that I don’t have to require the end user of the IDE to have something like wine installed and configured correctly.
In theory you could develop games with mobile version of TIC-80 (a fantasy console), but it's a pain (I've tried when my computer broke few years back and was left with nothing). Other than that, I don't know of any good gamedev environments for Android, sorry.
You really should get a cheap laptop that's modern enough to run Windows 10 and has basic dedicated GPU. When my computer broke after few months of saving I got an used Asus ux32vd (was cheap, though about 10 years old at the time) with an i5 and GTX660M. Not very good for gaming, but good enough to develop some games on, at least simple ones.
I am a webcomic artist as well as a game dev and for a while I've wanted to make a playable webcomic as a HTML5 game. Can't really host it on my webcomic site, because I am using a premade webcomic site which doesn't allow html/js uploads, BUT the webcomic site allows of specifying some HTML code to embed stuff (think iframe) instead of a direct comic upload.
So what I was thinking was to host a hidden game HTML5 on itchio and make it playable by embedding it on my comic's site. Is it possible?
Unless I can't see it, there's no way to change volume for specific instrument track? If so, this is really limiting as I've found that some instruments I want to use for the main melody are too quiet in comparison to ones I want to use as the bassline. And ability to set the volume for each instrument track (and the drum tracks!) would be nice.
