Change Log – What’s New

(compared to jv16 PowerTools 2017 build 4.1.0.1657)

Here is a complete list of bug fixes and improvements that we did since jv16 PowerTools 2017 – Version 4.1.0.1657 was released on Friday, December 16th, 2016:

Bug Fixes

Fix: Using the Clean and SpeedUp My Computer can show an Access Violation error relating to StartupOptimizerFormUnit.

Fix: Some modules of Clean and SpeedUp My Computer do not honor the Search Words feature.

Fix: Clean and SpeedUp My Computer can display incorrectly formated data on screen. For example, if a registry entry contains value “C:\Program Files\Office\Office15\”, it could show the same value in the software’s user interface as “C:\Program Files (x64)\Office\Office15\” (notice the different path). This is purely a cosmetic issue.

Fix: The software can behave unexpectedly in case it cannot write to its own installation directory. This can happen if an anti-virus or anti-malware product is blocking the software.

Fix: The software may display an error message with “Cannot write to file” error if used in a computer that has more than three hard disk drives.

Improvements

Improvement: Clean and SpeedUp My Computer works now much faster.

Improvement: Clean and SpeedUp My Computer can now detect more of specific types of registry errors.

Improvement: When using the Delete On Reboot feature of the Directory Tool, it will now ask whether user wishes to restart the computer to remove the data. Before, this question was shown only when PowerTools was closed.

Improvement: The Software Uninstaller can now detect installed software with greater accuracy.

Improvement: Writing one’s name to the Newsletter signup box in the Quick Tutorial will automatically license the software, if the user owns a valid license.

Improvement: Added a new tool to allow users to see what licenses they own for the product.

Improvement: If an anti-virus software is detected, the Main Window no longer reminds user to add jv16 PowerTools to its white list. Instead, the reminder is shown if any tool window of the software is opened, thus reducing the number of possible messages at first PowerTools startup.

Improvement: Contains updated translations for Chinese Traditional and Polish.

Improvement: Contains new translation: Czech.

There are issues for the translation of the tool Find My License.

For instance in the main window the name of the tool is not translated.

See 0 = Find My License

Though the English string is translated still the original English string is shown.

There are still other issues for the translation of this tool: several other original English strings are shown though they are translated.

I think tou have to do a check for it in this new tool.

Hello ! Two remarks about JV16pt 2017

1-Installing the update to v 4.1.0.1666 I receive a window which is not translated and not clear for french people: "Please wait ... The following file is in use: jv16pt_PreWorker2.exe. Close all other application and choose Retry. Close Cancel to install this file on reboot". I attempt to close ... unsuccessfully: the same message reappears. I see two signs X on the screen and finally one of them closes the window and the installation panel appears. Then the installation continues to the end of its work.

2-At time of the installation of JV16pt 2017 version 4.1.0.1657 I had indicated some programs and some disks which had to be excluded from JV16pt investigation ( F:\; H:\; Symantec; Norton; ...). It was my exception list. Where can I consult this exception list now with version 4.1.0.1666 ?
