IridiumIO/CompactGUI v3.0.0

Version 3.0

on GitHub

Not many major changes, but may as well drop the beta tag at this point :)

Changes

• Skip Poorly Compressed Filetypes #365
  • Added more default filetypes: .tar, .gz, .dmg, .bz2, .tgz, .lz, .txz, .xz
  • Extensions can now also be separated using ; or ,. Trying to use Enter or Tab still doesn't work.
• Estimated compression size confidence
  • You now see a bar representing the confidence that the estimated compression size is accurate. This is based on user submitted results. Note that it aggregates the confidence based on all the compression types, so if everyone else is using XPRESS16K and you're using XPRESS4K the confidence can still be high, but your compression ratio will still be lower.
• Tooltips
  • Added tooltips to the compression options. #339

Known issues

• Watched folders will not play nice if you added a folder to the watchlist while in admin mode, and then went back to normal mode afterwards. It will still technically work, but the analysis will not be accurate (as it will skip over files it doesn't have permission to check)
• Clicking the Analyse button to check all the watched folders won't show any visual indication that it's doing anything until it is finished. It is actually working, but you just can't see anything. Feel free to spam click the button if it makes you feel better.
• The fading in/out bottom bar is a bit glitchy.
• The right-click context menu no longer works and gives an error that CompactGUI is already running, if you're using the Watched list.

Important!

Because this application now uses .NET 6, you have two choices of downloads:

• 
  • 2.74 MB: If you don't have the .NET 6 runtime installed when you try to run this, it will prompt you to download it from Microsoft
• 
  • 150 MB: Includes all libraries required to run it completely standalone, however it's nearly 50x the size. I do recommend installing the .NET 6 runtime instead (which is itself only a 50MB download).
