JkDefragStarter - Changelog
Hinweis für deutsche Besucher:
Dieser Changelog ist in Englisch, da wohl die meisten Benutzer von JkDefragStarter Englisch sprechen.
Version 1.18.2
- Added Spanish translation (thanks to Manuel Montero "Senpai").
- Changed the About-box: There is now a clickable link to the JkDefragStarter website and some text formatting.
Version 1.18.1
- Settings file is now saved in UTF-8 format. Now unicode filenames (containing special characters) are saved correctly.
- Improved Windows Vista support: If JkDefragStarter is not running as administrator, you will get an UAC prompt when you run JkDefrag.
- Nice side-effect of Vista support: You can run JkDefragStarter on Windows 2000/XP as restricted user and it will prompt for user name and password of an administrator account.
Version 1.18
- Replaced input boxes of items to defragment, spacehogs and excludes with combo-boxes which contain a history
- Language-selector box and help buttons will stay enabled while defragging
-
Replaced the "Exit JkDefrag when done" and "Wait for exit" checkboxes with a combo-box where you can select the "mode of operation".
To make JkDefragStarter put the -q option into the command line, select one of the options where JkDefrag will quit automatically. - Added the possibility to shutdown when JkDefrag exits (to cancel this, close JkDefragStarter before JkDefrag)
- Small clarification update for the help boxes
- All languages updated with strings for the recent changes (special thanks to my translators!)
- Corrected mistakes in the language files where special characters were escaped with a backslash
- Code refactoring: standard include files are now included from header files -> this makes it easier to add new classes in the future
Version 1.17.5
-
Improved settings file format: values are now saved in the form "SettingName=Value" which makes editing and upgrading easier.
Your old settings file is no longer valid and I recommend to delete it. - Settings file name changed from jkds.dat to jkds.ini
-
Implemented usage of the ApplicationData directory (will create a file %AppData%\JkDefragStarter\jkds.ini):
- Should avoid problems with unsaved settings in Vista when UAC is enabled.
-
A "portable" mode is still available, but AppData is preferred.
To run JkDefragStarter in portable mode, simply create an empty file "jkds.ini" and put it into the same directory as the JkDefragStarter.exe .
The following cases will explain the program's behaviour:
- if you run JkDefragStarter on a System that has a settings file in the AppData directory, it will use that in any case.
- if the file is not there, but a local one in the directory where the JkDefragStarter.exe is, it will use that and save the settings to it -> no changes are made to the filesystem on the computer
- for BartPE, you can put an initial settings file on the CD that will be read on the first start, and will be saved to the RamDisk (==AppData) on exit, because it can't be saved to the CD
Version 1.17.4
- Made it possible to enter floating-point numbers into the free space edit box. Use ENGLISH NUMBER FORMAT (e.g. 5.3) !!!
