Fixed an error opening disks with the NTFS file system when the cluster size is exactly 64K. If you are using version 2.03/Gen2
and you don't have those drives, you don't need to upgrade to version 2.04/Gen2.
Added preconfigured settings profiles to check only standard Windows user
and standard Windows system and user folders. You can create new profiles by adding a profile
settings menu. When ADinf32 is installed on a machine for the first time, three settings profiles
are automatically created: check the entire disk and two new types.
Update at the request of users who use ADinf32 to control data on flash drives or removable drives:
If saving a copy of a disk snapshot in the root directory is enabled, the settings profile used to build
the snapshot is also saved there. The profile is saved as a standard .reg file named "ADinf32.G2_Profile([Profile Name]).reg
Added the ability to export a settings profile to a file. To import on another computer, you need to copy there
resulting file and double-click on it with the mouse.
Added deletion of files "xxxxxxxx.ADinf32.Gen2.db" in the root of disks left from v1.xx/Gen2 (clean up).
The storage location for disk snapshots has been moved to the C:\ProgramData\ADinf32 folder by default.
Individual drive settings are now tied not to a drive letter, but to the Volume Serial Number. Those,
disks can change assigned letters, removable disks can be connected with different letters,
the settings will be applied correctly.
Added a disks setting that allows you to control saving a copy of a disk snapshot in the root
directory. By default, such a copy in the root directory is kept only for removable drives.
For other discs, this copy will be automatically deleted if retention is not set in the settings.
Added the ability to include in snapshots and check only selected directory branches.
Added the ability to exclude selected directory branches from disk snapshots.
Added the ability to mark all file changes in selected directory branches as suspicious.
Fixed a bug in calculating CRC16, CRC32, CRC48 and LAN64 on disks with the exFAT file system.
Disk snapshots are backwards compatible with version 1.xx snapshots. This means that version 2.00 can read snapshots
versions 1.xx, but versions 1.xx will not be able to read disk snapshots from version 2.00.
When version 2.00 is first checked against version 1.xx snapshots, some system files, such as "Thumbs.db",
may appear in the deleted list. This is caused by a change in the internal settings of the program and is normal.
Version 1.xx settings are inherited by version 2.00.
Defect in removed files processing has been fixed. Please, uninstall version 1.00/Gen2 before installing new one.
Diskinfotables and settings will be presereved.
Incorrect ADinf32 termination has been fixed.
Please, uninstall previous ADinf32 version before installation of v8.01 (config settings and
disk snapshots are kept when ADinf32 is uninstalled).
For versions 8.xx ADinf32 becomes Freeware
for personal use! Registration is no longer required. This is due to the start of work on the next generation of the program.
Versions of the first generation will become obsolete morally and technically with the release of generation 2.
For corporate needs, as before, you need to get a license key.
exFAT file system support added. Now you can check all your USB flash drives.
Project was ported to Microsoft Visual Studio 2019. If you have fresh Windows 7 installation you might need to download from Microsoft web site and
install Update for Universal C Runtime in Windows. Details
are available here.
Fixed bug: ADinf32 interpreted disks with exFAT file system as NTFS disks and crashed. It is not yet full exFAT file system support.
Project was ported to Microsoft Visual Studio 2017. If you have fresh Windows 7 installation you might need to download from Microsoft web site and
install Update for Universal C Runtime in Windows. Details
are available here.
File changes analyzis is several times faster. It is especially visible at drives with big amount of files (> 500000).
Fixed defect: Suspicious changes warning dialog was opened in simplified profile for anti-virus scanner control only.
Configuration masks for Stable and Excluded files are now checked not only with DOS (8+3) file names but with long file
names also. However, masks themselves are kept in 8+3 format to preserve backward compatibility. Using of wildcard
symbols adds flexibility when applying to long file names.
New skins set dedicated to Moscow.
Full-functional evaluation period is set to 30 days.
Project was ported to Microsoft Visual Studio 2015. If you have fresh Windows 7 installation you might need to download from Microsoft web site and
install Update for Universal C Runtime in Windows. Details
are available here.
Now drives are identified by Volume Serial Number, not by drive name letter.
Though in UI you will still see drive names as it used to be. With this change you can
connect external USB drives with different drive names, change drive names for existing disks, etc.
ADinf32 will recognize and check drives correctly. Also now it is possible to bring external USB
drive to another computer (with installed ADinf32 v6.00+) and check it, even if the drive
has never been connected there previously.
Diskinfotable copy is now created in disks root folder. The copy is used in two cases:
1) When a disk is connected to a computer for the first time and has never been checked there before.
2) For the first drive check after the new Configuration Profile has been created.
Fixed defect resulted in inability to restore MBR.
"iTunes Media" folder added to marked as "Hide changes" folders list when creating diskinfotables.
Files "iTunes Library.itl", "iTunes Music Library.xml", and several more related to iTunes files added to marked
as "Hide changes" files list when creating diskinfotables.
Added support for Floating Time Zones. As a result Windows XP is no longer supported.
Fixed defect in printing length of big files (more than 4 Gb) in Log file.
