I have the connection back.
And don't you think that I spent my time offline relaxing, here is what I have done:
Bugs fixed:
28. Automation Tool's Top Panel is visible even if the list is empty. The Top Panels should not be shown with an empty list.
29. The last check box ("Run Start Menu Tool") is not correctly positioned in the Automation Tool's Create new automated task feature.
30. With some tools the "Please wait..." panel is shown too high, for example with the Custom Uninstall Software tool.
31. Some tools show "Nothing found" text in the list while the tool is still running; of course nothing is found yet as the operation is still in progress.
32. If you add a Search Word to the Duplicate File Finder, the blue "i" icon shows up over the tab icon only after you change the tab. The "i" icon should show up at once.
33. Clean and Fix my computer's Search Words and Ignore Words features do not update the "i" icon correctly (see item 32).
34. File Recovery's Ignore Words feature does not update the "i" icon correctly (see item 32).
35. The Results window of the Find and Replace data (inside files) tool does not show up properly. For example, the Status Bar only updated after clicking the list.
36. The Results window of the Find and Replace data (inside files) tool can show duplicate data if run many times in a row.
37. Startup Manager's "Create new automatically starting program" feature starts with the OK button disabled. (All tools should start with all the OK/Start buttons enabled and if the user clicks the button before all the required input has been given an error message should be shown).
38. Registry Cleaner's Search Words and Ignore Words features do not update the "i" icon correctly (see item 32).
39. Aborting a registry snapshot creation (with the Registry Monitor tool) can crash the program. Also, the operation can continue to run in the background.
40. Aborting Registry Monitor's Compare feature incorrectly shows the "Operation completed, following changes were detected..." message and the actual operation can continue to run in the background.
41. Registry Find and Replace tool's Ignore Words feature does not update the "i" icon correctly (see item 32).
42. Known bug fixed: The tab icons are missing.
43. Known bug (of PT 2009) fixed: The background of the tab icons isn't always transparent, and sometimes there is too much space before the first tab.
44. Custom Fix feature of the Registry Cleaner can freeze the entire program.
45. The Registry Cleaner and "Clean and fix my computer" can show a lot of internal errors relating to Safety Net component.
46. Mass File Renamer can crash when creating a new block.
47. It's not possible to move (by dragging) any blocks.
48. Changing the program's font within the translation file doesn't always work properly.
49. Using the mouse wheel or the scroll area of a laptop, it is possible to make the Main Window get stuck in a very long scrolling loop where the category selector on left keeps moving rapidly.
50. Removing a disabled item in Startup Manager seems to work (the item is removed from the list) but the item is not removed, it comes back after you open the tool again.
51. If you abort the Startup Manager while its generating its list, there is a delay of up to 5 seconds before the tool is again ready to be used.
52. Starting "Clean and fix my computer" can cause an Access Violation error.
53. The new Main Window does not properly scale to lonegr tool names and descriptions (texts are cut off).
54. The contentns of the Abbreviation tab of the Settings tool do not scale properly when changing the language of the program.
Other improvements done:
7. Added caching to the Live Support status check. This means the program doesn't have to check for the status of the Live Support every time you start the program, it can use previous data as long as the previous data is new enough.
8. Added a Status Bar to the Automation Tool.
9. Removed White List feature from the Anti-Malware, you can simply use the Ignore Words instead.
10. The Header File tab of the Custom Restore / Edit backup tool is no longer visible if the user uses the Simple GUI mode. The feature is only for the most advanced users, new users do not have to see the feature at all.
11. Updated the GUI of the Disk Wiper's Status window.
12. Updated the GUI of the File Split tool.
13. Updated the GUI of the Find and Replace data (inside files) tool.
14. Updated the GUI of the Startup Manager's "Create new automatically starting program" window.
15. Updated the GUI of the System Cleaner
16. Updated the GUI of the Registry Info tool.
17. Minor updates to the GUI of the Settings window
18. Migrated the entire program to use a new tab component, the new component has better support for transparent icons and also fixes a few known issues of the old tab control (such as too much space before the first tab).
19. Added support for a new format translation files. The old format is still supported to allow all the translators to have time to update to the new format. The new format is needed because the old format was prone to hash collisions, in other words, wrong item from a tool window was translated even as the translation file was made correctly.
20. Removed the Registry Cleaner's Network access feature. This feature has been depricated by the Global Ignore List (to which we can send data over the Internet to protect users in a very unlikely event of a critical bug is found from the Registry Cleaner Engine.)
21. Further improved the safety of the Registry Cleaner and the Clean and fix my computer. Again, no actual bugs fixes, only adding more extra safety checks.
22. Greatly improved the GUI of the Mass File Renamer, also added two new tips for the tool to help new users.
23. Removed unused data from the translation file (English.lng) and added support for translating the new User Interface elements (but please do not start to translate the program yet, there will still be changes)
The 50+ bug fixes will probably make the upcoming Beta4 the version with most bug fixes ever :
And generally speaking, the quality of the program is really getting to a new level. Even without any internet connection, we have been testing and fixing things with a great pace.
