  1. Attached a replacement package, HotFix-01, to address misc post release issues1

  • Adds HelpScan Feature
    • Ensures that some typically unwanted loaders are not displayed in the first row
      • Enforces tools only appearing in the second row
      • Always adds program default items for exclusion to user defined ones
    • Enabled by default but can be disabled using a new decline_help_scan configuration token
      • The new token sets RefindPlus to follow the upstream implementation
  • Fixes MemTest Tool
    • The MemTest fallback loader file was not recognised as a MemTest loader
    • Hence MemTest could only be run via explicit MemTest efi files
    • This bug was introduced in v0.12.0.AN (Commit 44b53e8)
  • Improves Ventoy Handling
    • Removes multiple redundant/invalid loader options that otherwise appear
    • Displays an os_ventoy icon if present
  • Improves ScaleUI Handling
    • Eliminates extra UI scaling that may happen on main screen rescans
  • Improves SyncAPFS Handling
    • Handles synced multi instance APFS container volumes in DontScanVolumes list
    • Stores APFS Roles in volume object instead of retrieving such each time
  • Improves Misc External Screen Tool Handling
    • Some tools that run external screens, such as GDisk, may change volume device paths
    • Hence, on return, RefindPlus did not operate as it should
    • Previously fixed but re-emerged and now addressed again
  • Improves Linux Param File Handling
    • A memory conflict meant the files were not always read
  • Improves Filesystem Driver Handling
    • Resolves failure to install on some handles
  • Improves GPT Handling
    • Applies misc minor tweaks
  • Improves Comma Delimited Strings Handling
    • Now accommodates leading spaces before string elements
  • Improves Loader Icon Handling
    • Provides generic Linux fallback for some distros
    • Prevents fallback loaders with invalid architectures from being displayed
  • Improves AlsoScan Feature Handling
    • The @root/boot path was removed from the default also_scan_dirs list
    • Added in v0.13.3.AD but users should be able to add this if required
  • Renames Misc Configuration Tokens
    • decline_nvram_protect to disable_nvram_protect
    • decline_reload_gop to disable_reload_gop
    • decline_apfs_load to disable_apfs_load
    • decline_apfs_mute to disable_apfs_mute
    • decline_apfs_sync to disable_apfs_sync
    • decline_apple_fb to disable_provide_fb
