Version 3.0.0.1239 (Beta 3) on 32-bit Windows 7

File Tool:

List Control-->Remove from list only removes one selected line at a time. To reproduce:
- * Get a list showing many files.
  
  * Do a select all.
  
  * Uncheck one line.
  
  * Right click a line-->List Control-->Remove from list -- only the first selected line in the list is removed.

C&FMC does not work... tried normal and aggressive setting, it simply stops responding and requires exiting the application.

BETA3 overall responsiveness is quite slow and lags considerably compared to previous versions.

The 'find more information online' in Remove Software does look up the application rather than the author, kudos. Now, if we could only have the option of choosing our own search engine preference, rather than being tied to only using Google?

Version 3.0.0.1239 (Beta 3) on 32-bit Windows 7

Changes from Beta2:

Confirmed:
- Bug fix: The Debug Log doesn't contain all the possible BugReport.txt or Profile*.txt files, only those who exist at the time PowerTools was started is being included.
  - Confirmed for bug report reply "continue application"
    
    Not fixed for bug report reply "close application"
  Bug fix: The Backup Tool can take way too long to load its list.*
  
  Bug fix: Clicking the top panel with more information of the currently selected line clears the panel from text.
  
  Bug fix: The Registry Cleaner can, in some cases, list valid registry entries under \SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run key as "Obsolete software entry"
  
  Bug fix: The version and system information panel at the bottom of the Main Window can sometimes overlap with the message box.
  
  Bug fix: In the Software Uninstaller, checking for "more information online" looks up the author, rather than the software.*
  
  Bug fix: It's possible to go forward in Decrap my Computer with no software selected for removal.
  
  Improvement: Added option "All" to the File Tool > Columns > Date menu.
  
  Improvement: Major performance improvements to the data listing component, it should now be faster and less flickering.
  
  Improvement: Changed the Automation Tasks from the File tab to the Others tab.
  
  Improvement: Disabled the Custom restore/Edit backup option for the File tab items of the Backup tool.
  
  Improvement: The Decrap my Computer attempts to guess whether you are running it on a brand new, out-of-the-box Windows PC, or an older one. If you are running it on a new PC, only then Decrap my Computer will by default select all items by default (except for the drivers category items). In other case, nothing is selected by default.
  
  Improvement: You can now close the Decrap my Computer by clicking the Back button.
  
  Improvement: The Decrap my Computer now lists drivers and other most likely important software in a separate group which is unselected by default.

Not fixed:
- Bug fix: Buttons of the Start Menu Tool are not clickable. Buttons were clickable in Beta2, albeit with great difficulty. Buttons are easily clickable in Beta3, but the tool no longer finds anything.

Not tested:
- jv16 PowerTools 2013 ChangeLog (compared to beta2)
  
  Bug fix: The Registry Compactor still says "jv16 PowerTools 2012"
  
  Bug fix: There is no "List Control" option in the Right-Click menus of the Decrap my Computer
  
  Bug fix: Using the "Never show again" Right-Click feature of any tool can cause the tool not listing any items in future runs.
  
  Bug fix: The Decrap my Computer can get stuck to the "Finalizing the restore point" stage.
  
  Bug fix: Running the Initial Setup multiple times causes the Backup directory to fill with System Recovery backups.
  
  .Bug fix: Unit Testing Tool can crash to Stack Overflow.
  
  .Bug fix: Unit Testing Tool shows numerous errors relating to "TestRDA".
  
  Bug fix: The Tools > Maintenance Tool > Reset Statistics feature isn't working properly.
  
  Improvement: Improved the safety of the registry cleaner engine.
  
  .Improvement: The Registry Cleaner no longer lists certain registry data that cannot be modified.
  
  Improvement: Enabled some more new tweaks of the new registry cleaner engine to give it even better performance. The new engine is now using about 70% of its full potential, the final tweaks are still under development so you can still expect more speed with the next beta versions and the final version.
  
  Improvement: The Profile*.txt files now contain even more valuable information to further improve the performance of the product.
  
  * = Item was reported fixed with the Beta 2 but the fix did not work, this is the second attempt to fix the problem.

No errors found yet but just a general comment. I think it would be a good idea to post in the Beta2 thread when beta3 is out, post in this thread when beta 4 is out, etc...

The beta3 does not contain any icons, as the attached JPG shows.

Version 3.0.0.1239 (Beta 3) on 32-bit Windows 7

Registry Cleaner - access violation possibly in the list processing component:

The "RC access violation.zip" file reflects an aggressive run made yesterday afternoon.
The list had 92 "Invalid file reference" items and 144 "Software deep trace" items.

I selected the 144 items and clicked Delete.

The access violation occurred. The list refreshed showing just one selected item. The group counts were 92 and 1/1, too much by one since the list total was 92. I unchecked the selected line and the selected count became -1.

I replied "continue" to the bugreport pop up.

I clicked Abort to get by this message which occurred when clicking an action button: : The tool is running. Please wait for it to finish first!

I selected the 92 items and clicked Delete.

The list then showed just the one line in the "Software deep trace" group.

When I tried to do something with it, a message claimed the list was empty.

RC access violation.zip

Registry Cleaner - reproduction of the access violation possibly in the list processing component:

The "RC access violation reproduction.zip" file reflects an aggressive run made a short while ago.
I restored the backups and ran the aggressive mode Registry Cleaner. The list had the same content as yesterday.

Results were exactly the same as yesterday with one exception.

When I selected the one remaining line and clicked Delete, the program did the backup dialogue and reported ": All done! 0 registry errors were fixed, 0 B of data was removed (0 files, 0 registry entries and 0 registry keys)."

The line stayed on the list, and the backup Entries.reg was empty (i.e, contained only header information).

The two Entries.reg from the Backups follow the attachment in case you want to try reproducing the situation.

I'm afraid I don't quite understand, what is missing?

The program jv16 PowerTools has no icons.

Since the icons are there and recognized using Windows 7, there is probably some sort of new jv16PT.exe compatibility issue with icons in XP. I assume CSGalloway is also using Windows XP ...

BTW, jv16PT.exe has always had icons since I first bought a license.

One of these may resolve the jv16PT.exe XP icon issue:

. How to Repair Windows XP Icons ( http://www.ehow.com/how_6762587_repair-windows-xp-icons.html ).

. Windows XP Icon Cache ( http://tweaks.com/windows/37003/windows-xp-icon-cache/ )

. Rebuild icon cache to fix incorrectly displayed icons ( http://smallvoid.com/article/windows-icon-cache.html )

The first one, IMO, seems to be easiest, although I have never done it.

I remember doing the second one successfully a few years ago when I had Windows XP.

The third describes several methods, including the second one.

If the issue goes away after doing one of them, the issue was probably not Macecraft's fault, i.e., not a bug. Otherwise, who knows?
