Talon Release 1.2.0
Caution
Talon is designed to be used on freshly installed Windows 11 systems. Trying to use Talon on an already in-use system, or a any older versions of Windows, is not guaranteed to work and can cause some apps to stop working properly and system corruption!
You can download the pre-packaged executable here.
New Features
- The apply_background function now uses a component script instead of an external program.
- Added Microsoft Edge as a browser option.
- Added the
--developer-modeflag. When passed, the install_screen overlay is hidden, allowing you to see the installation process take place. - While this is not a new feature within Talon, documentation is now available here.
Improvements
- Reorganized the repository to be much cleaner. "Component" scripts are now stored in
/components, and media is now stored in/media. - Reorganized the contents of
build.batto make it easier to read. - Now using get_resource_path utility function for file paths instead of manually handling paths each time.
- Slightly modified the wording in browser_select_screen.
- install_screen now covers all monitors.
Bug Fixes
- Removed restore point creation in the CTT WinUtil step, which caused a problem for many users where it would freeze indefinitely.
- Added
-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -NoProfileto the PowerShell command for adding a Defender exclusion for the %APPDATA%\ravendevteam folder if you chose to install Raven software. This should resolve the issue of the exclusion sometimes not being added.
