Important
If you use Windows Defender, it may incorrectly flag this version as malware. SmartScreen may also do this. Don't worry; this is safe to download and use.
This AV solution flags this program because it lacks code-signing certificates, which are quite expensive (as of January 2025, 660 and 864 dollars for 3 years of SV and EV certificates, respectively, from Comodo).
If you use other antivirus solutions, you will not see this problem. Learn more here
Bugfixes
- The product key syntax validation algorithm is now more reliable
- Password entry is now disabled when setting up an open network connection in the unattended answer file creation wizard (for the love of all security experts and IT admins, DON'T DO THIS!!!)
- Fixed an issue where the program would throw an access violation exception if you declined the UnattendGen self-contained version download dialog
New features
New tasks
- NEW! Image edition tasks have been added. Access them by going to Commands -> Windows editions:
Preinstallation Environment Helper
- The Driver Installation Module (DIM) now shows instructions and progress information at the bottom of the window:
- The restart dialog has been ported to ARM64
- CODE: the procedure to add Optional Components for Windows PE has been streamlined for ISO and test environment creation
Image information reports
- HTML versions of image information reports now have a sidebar for easier section navigation:
Image information dialogs
- You can now sort features and capabilities by clicking the column headers (#231):
Miscellaneous
- If a removable medium contains a Windows installation, you will now be able to use it in the offline installation management mode
- CODE: image operations have been refactored
Removed features
- Actions, introduced in version 0.3, have been removed due to a lack of maintenance
- Printing capabilities of image information reports have been removed (hopefully temporarily)
Note
We had to say goodbye to printing capabilities for 2 reasons:
- They have been partially broken since version 0.6, when the format switched to Markdown and they started printing the HTML version
- Recent changes in how the HTML versions of the report look now have made printing not feasible
This may be a blow to some of you, and I get that. That's why I'll keep investigating to try to bring these back up in their full glory
