optimizerDuck v2.13.3 - Major Performance Improvements and Simplified Chinese Support

on GitHub

This release focuses on performance improvements, enhanced reliability, and expanded language support. We've optimized core operations, improved user interface responsiveness, and added comprehensive Simplified Chinese localization to make the tool more accessible to our growing user base.

New

• Embedded Resource Support: Added the ability to extract embedded resources dynamically, enabling more flexible resource management within the application
• Simplified Chinese Translation: Complete localization support for Simplified Chinese users, including all UI elements, settings, and system messages. Thank you @wcxu21
• Restore Point UX Improvement: Added an indeterminate progress bar for restore point creation to improve feedback during long-running operations
• Restore Failure Handling: Improved restore process behavior by allowing users to cancel or continue when restore point creation fails

Fixes

• Startup Reliability: Improved application startup process with better error handling and background task management to prevent UI freezing
• Revert Data Persistence: Fixed issues with revert step tracking and indexing to ensure optimization changes can be properly reverted
• Window Closing Behavior: Enhanced closing dialog logic to prevent the application from hanging when pending changes exist
• Registry Operation Safety: Improved async registry operations with better error handling and state management
• Blank Shortcut Overlay: Replaced system icon fallback with a proper blank.ico implementation to ensure consistent and stable visual behavior

Improvements

• Performance Optimization: Added virtualization to dashboard item controls for smoother scrolling and reduced memory usage when displaying system information
• Async Operations: Converted synchronous operations to async patterns throughout the codebase for better responsiveness and resource utilization
• Code Refactoring: Streamlined feature toggles and optimization execution flow, including core scheduler and redundant feature merges
• UI/UX Refinements: Updated converters and visual elements for better theme compatibility and improved recommendation display
• Resource Management: Renamed and reorganized resource directories for clearer separation between downloads, assets, and system resources
• Logging Enhancements: Improved log formatting and error reporting for better debugging and diagnostics
