Bug Fixes

1. If certain files are deleted in jv16 PowerTools installation folder, the program can enter a state where it runs the Initial Setup every time the program is started.
2. The program shipped without the list of available DNS servers used by the Internet Optimizer, causing the Internet Optimizer to not being able to run.
3. Software Uninstaller can incorrectly add a trailing slash to filenames, for example path c:\windows\notepad.exe can become c:\windows\notepad.exe\. While this is mostly a cosmetic issue, it can also affect the uninstallation software as if the program attempts to uninstall software and delete such path, it may fail because of the incorrectly placed trailing slash character.
4. Using Find All with a search term that produces zero results causes the small under window progress bar remain visible in the main window after the search has ended.
5. Find All’s vertical position on the home screen can change for no reason.
6. Opening the Settings can take a very long time in some systems.
7. Fixed many cases of bad English from the program’s user interface. Mostly grammar mistakes.
