Minesweeper Cheats
content auto translated from {from}

The game is single-player, so no one's nerves will suffer if you cheat, unlike online games.

First cheat - well-known.

New game - on the keyboard, enter the letters

"X" "Y" "Z" "Z" "Y"

without quotes. Look at the upper left corner of the monitor, a white pixel appears there. No, we haven't broken the monitor, and there's no need to buy a new one. Hold the left shift key. Move the cursor over the field: if the pixel turns black, there is a mine in that cell; if it remains white, there is no mine. The first move is always mine-free.

UPD: As CheMax suggests, there are several similar methods:

While playing, press two mouse buttons simultaneously on the game field,

and the [Esc] key on the keyboard. Time will stop.

To resume, minimize and then maximize the Minesweeper window.

Second cheat - software-based, ancient (FOR Windows XP)

There is a program for solving Minesweeper logic puzzles, which reads from the RAM, making all mines visible. Unfortunately, it didn’t work on my system since I am currently using Windows XP; the program only works up to Windows ME.

Instructions: Start the program, start Minesweeper, "click" a couple of times randomly, then in the program window - "game" - "to the end", and drag the smiley face onto the game field, voilà.

Third cheat - software-based, eternal, slow, tedious.

There is also a program [http://depositfiles.com/files/fdmtl2udj\]Saper Helper[/url] (the author's site has perished in the depths of time, code=identifier xD).

The program was created to be used in the "Minesweeper for money" game, but nothing prevents us from using it for our noble purposes.

There are two modes in the program: puzzle and solving. Puzzle - the program generates the puzzle, we solve it, but that's not what interests us; solving is much more interesting.

We start solving the standard Minesweeper, if there is any suspicion of a mine but you don’t want to count? Okay, open our program, "actions - settings", perform the settings, don't forget to check "game in another application". Now, transfer all information from our Minesweeper to the program window (tedious, very), press "Actions - precise probability calculation", green indicates completely safe fields, and the percentage in the cell is the chance that there's a mine there.

Just remember two things:

Cheats are evil

If you keep cheating, you will forget how to play! This is all very serious.
