1.3.0

latest release: v1.3.1
17 months ago

This update features many UI improvements, new scripts and bugfixes, and fixes many of the issues and shortcomings of the previous versions.

Improvements

  • Interface overhaul
    • Wizard for script execution
    • Script separation
  • Logging: now disabled by default.
  • Console mode: now case-insensitive.
  • Added self-signed open-source certificate. Windows still doesn't see it as safe, but it's better than nothing.
  • Application doesn't require administrator permissions anymore. Some scripts may not work in user mode though.
  • Implemented a WPF tweak to improve text rendering (TextFormattingMode).

New features

  • Scripts and hosts can now have supported Windows version ranges. The range is based on the SemVer 2.0.0 standard version range syntax.
  • New host: direct execution: behaves like the "Run..." dialog box.
  • Unhandled exception dialog: added "Ignore" button
  • Console mode : added --ListScripts command.

Scripts

  • Scripts can now be simply executed, or enabled/disabled (useful for registry tweaks and system configuration).
  • For scripts that can be enabled or disabled, the current state is detected automatically.
  • Removed most service-related scripts (too much issues, performance boost negligible)
  • Removed script: Show folder merge conflicts (opinionated)
  • Added script: Enable verbose status messages

Bugfixes

  • Issues with script names: setting a script name to a reserved Windows filename (such as CON, AUX, NUL...) would result in errors.
  • Console mode : fixed errors when attaching console.

Backwards compatiblity

  • Custom scripts written in the previous versions should still work.
  • However, the filename of a custom script will now remain as the filename of the original file, instead of being set to the script's invariant name.
