* Relying on system MUIs was too brittle and provides us with no guarantee
that the translated messages we need will actually be there.
* Also fix space before question mark in French translation.
* With no thanks whatsoever to Microsoft for *NOT* documenting that you need
to pass flag 0x2000000 to WIMCreateFile() if you want to avoid an open error.
One has to wonder if Microsoft isn't deliberately adding *BULLSHIT FLAGS*
that only they know of, to hinder competing third-party tools...
* FAT32 would become available and selected as default FS when
selecting a Windows ISO with a >4GB file and then clicking
"Show advanced drive properties".
* Range not being set when plugging a drive
* Set position to zero when no drive is selected
* Make sure the restored position can not be greater than the max
* Now only use major.minor for version references
* Drop the use of LOC_FRAMEWORK_VERSION. We'll use custom handling if we ever need a framework change.
* Also update/fix some of the UI elements for persistent partition
* Also reposition the language selection menu when we don't have a large number of them
* Ctrl-Alt-Z can now be used to zero a drive, while skipping blocks that are detected empty
* Depending on your hardware, as well as the existing drive content, this strategy can greatly
speed up zeroing operations, especially if the flash memory's read speed is much higher than
its write speed.
* Closes#1174
* Also add a test ISO to display these controls
* The intent is to use the next round of translation to get these new UI elements localized,
as any translation work takes _months_, and it is a precondition to start working on #691.
* Also fix new issues with image options when switching language
* This doesn't mean we'll get persistence support any time soon, but any UI work
on this needs to be carried out *MONTHS* in advance because of the translators.
* Use a default block size of 128 KB (can speed up read operations)
* Reorganise patterns to suit different types of NAND cells (SLC, MLC and TLC)
* Only run fake drive test on first pass
* Also update rufus-next to 3.2
* We now auto resize the height of the Notification dialog according to the
number of lines of the message.
* Also harmonize local RECT variable names according to what we do elsewhere.
* *THIS* is what you need to do to replace Microsoft's broken SetDllDirectory("")
implementation and mitigate DLL sideloading from local directories.
* Also fix some comment typos
* Because of Windows' poor handling of toolbar buttons' tooltips, an unwanted
tooltip could be displayed onscreen after closing the log.
* Also fix an issue when Rufus would reset the partition type to GPT after a
user created an MBR flash drive (e.g. after creating a Windows bootable USB).
* Whole screen was being refreshed when calling InvalidateRect() in ResizeMoveCtrl()
* Progress bar bounding rectangle could be erased at 0.0%
* No progress was displayed when writing ISOHybrid images in DD mode
* Also fix an issue when write error would not display the error string
* File indexing is too much of an annoyance on removable drives anyway
and this should help with perf and access issues
* Alt-Q cheat mode is now changed to re-enable file indexing
* Also fix a rogue 'else' in the code
* Needed because native Windows produces obnoxious tearing on redrawing.
* Also rename global partition scheme variable back to 'pt'
* Also fix major and minor version numbers in the .rc
* Super-strange behaviour, that happens on Windows 7, at low zoom
factors, only when compiled with MSVC (MinGW is fine) and only
when the advanced options are set to be displayed on startup...
* Looks like TB_GETIDEALSIZE is screwy - Thanks a lot Microsoft!
* Add timestamp processing for nested signature and check for anomalous differences
* Also prevent attack scenarios that may attempt to leverage multiple nested signatures or countersigners
* Simplify code by using CryptDecodeObjectEx/WinVerifyTrustEx and improve timestamp reporting
* Required to support Debian Live 9.1 in ISO mode
* Note that this only works if the efi.img boot files do not require
additional content besides the one extracted from the ISO.
* Don't duplicate the PrintInfo() from DownloadFile()
* Make sure caret is disabled and displayed text will not appear selected
* Also update MSG_085 and remove unneeded MSG_240
* Add a WaitForSingleObjectWithMessages() call so that we can process Windows messages
while waiting on events (prevents lockup while issuing log messages)
* Limit the total duration of CheckDriveAccess() to 2 seconds
* Allow for user cancellation
* Also update code to use the Edit_####() predefined macros for Edit controls instead of EM_### messages
* The process search appears to be blocking on some platform, and we
also don't want users to have to wait too long on format startup
* Also update the update check for Windows XP SSL errors
* Rufus now checks for processes with handles opened on the drives/volumes before
starting the format operation and asks the user if they want to continue.
* This mimics Windows' behaviour when formatting drives, and actually uses the
same message as the one from shell32.dll.mui.
* Closes#773
* Fix memory leaks due to not releasing the heap
* Also speed up lookups by not reopening the same process twice in a row
* Also make the usb_debug variable global so we can use uuprintf everywhere
* Enable the use of GPT on REMOVABLE drives, if the host is Windows 10 CU
* Don't display the message about REMOVABLE boot, if the target is Windows 10 CU
* Not having FILE_SHARE_WRITE on a disk or volume handle helps
prevent spurious accesses from the OS or other apps while we
are repartitioning/refomatting.
* It appears that 1.5TB and 2TB HDDs, accessed trough some Seagate ow WD USB ↔ SATA
controllers, can report that 0 bytes were written on WriteFile(), even though all
the data was effectively written. 1TB HDDs, accessed through the same controller,
do not report this issue. So add a workaround for that.
* Also see #787
* Tooltips can only be manipulated from the same thread as the one that created their parent
* Also increase the SetLGP() timeout as this seems to be problematic
* Closes#764
* Since, despite what Microsoft states, having 'requireAdministrator' in a manifest STILL isn't
enough to prevent an app from launching as non elevated for some weird account configurations...
* Closes#757
* Downloadable content will now be indicating, in the log, whether it can be trusted with ✓ (validated) or ✗ (caution)
* Of course this validation only applies for files we know of, i.e. the downloadable content that existed at the time the DB was
created. So, if Syslinux 8.x gets released tomorrow and we put it on our server, you'll get an ✗ regardless of its integrity.
* Closes#758
* Could be useful for current tails user (6.03 based, same as ours)
who want to create an UFD without downloading files.
* Also improve the buffer overflow check in syslinux/libinstaller/syslxmod.c
* SetChecksumAffinity() now spreads the affinity evenly between cores
* Also increase the read buffer size to help with performance
* At this stage, the only limiting factor regarding performance seems
to be the speed of the SHA-256 algorithm...
* Also fix the VID:PID population of USB card readers
* Also improve enumeration debugging
* Also add an unofficial cheat mode to list non USB *REMOVABLE* drives
* Closes#693
* MSG_002 doesn't display in RTL
* Update Policy dialog loses RTL setting after the first paragraph
* Some text displayed in native Windows message boxes is not using RTL
(even as the Message Box itself will display the rest of the UI elements as RTL)
* Detect if the relevant language pack is installed and use MessageBoxEx to
display native message box buttons using the selected language.
* All theses issues are part of #621
* Also remove trailing whitespaces
* In some circumstances, this *might* help with the infamous #312 issue, though
I will still recommend to figure out which application is keeping a lock instead
of trying to cheat...
* Also update Bled to latest, as well as build scripts
* Note: Considering that Visual Studio 2015 is both freely and legally
available for anyone who wants to use it to compile Rufus, starting
with this commit, I will NOT be supporting any other version of Visual
Studio but 2015.
* Since Microsoft forces our hand, we hack away into our compiled RC
resources and change dialog attributes on the fly so that:
- we can switch between LTR & RTL
- change the font for Windows XP
* Note that the base RC font has been changed to "Segoe UI Symbols"
so that it looks the same in the editor (at least for English) but
can accommodate the length required for "MS Shell Dlg"
* Microsoft removed the diskcopy.dll that contained the MS-DOS floppy image
Not a big loss, since we have FreeDOS... ;)
* Closes#545
* Also apply a long overdue refactoring for boot and target types
* Also update the README to add an icon
* Fix Quick Format option overlapping boot option dropdown
* Fix vertical spacing between "Create bootable disk" and "Create extended label and icon files"
* Fix vertical spacing of progress bar in non advanced mode
* Align and resize Advanced Options button
* Align and resize Select Image button
* Fix vertical centering of Status text
* Add 64x64px icon so that the About dialog looks better at 200% size
* Ensure that focus is set back to a button after some operations
* Remove a confusing forced focus on Start after boot type dropdown selection
* Ensure that the Advanced Options and Select Image buttons have a label that
can be picked up by screen readers such as nvda
* Closes#243
* Closes#499
* The language button is now a toolbar button with a dropdown arrow.
* Its icon is a globe for Windows XP to Windows 7 and a globe with characters
on it for Windows 8 and above (same as the icon for the 'Languages' control
panel).
* Closes#488
* Closes#468
* Also prevent drives with UEFI:NTFS from being listed as multi-partitions
* Also add a label for the UEFI:NTFS FAT partition
* Also fix internal chver script
* This can be useful when launching Rufus from the commandline or a batch file with 'start /wait'
* Also fix a crash when specifying an unknown commandline option
* Also fix the commandline usage help
* Also fix Grub4DOS and Grub2.0 versioning issues
* Also ensures that operation gets canceled on missing download
* Also fix German translation and remove trailing whitespaces in .loc file
* Also fix inverted display status for VMWare disk detection
* Check compressed DD images for boot capability
* Add DisableLGP setting
* Silence libcdio errors when scanning non ISO images
* Ensure UI displays "No image selected" when relevant
* Also update Bled to latest
* Fix disappearance of "Start" button when selecting an ISO with
no target (reported by Sopor)
* Add commented sample ini file
* Add AC_PROG_AR macro in configure.ac
* Update ChangeLog for BETA
* Disable Windows To Go support for Windows 7 and earlier
* Fix placement of the advanced button on high DPI displays
* Reposition the log window for Windows 10
* Use a slightly larger and better scaling font for the info field,
and also fix the vertical text alignment
* This will randomly produce a message for users of a translation that
hasn't been updated in a while requesting help and pointing them to:
http://rufus.akeo.ie/translate
* Closes#435
* Also fix a WDK compilation issue with strtoll
* MinGW's gcc 4.9.2 seems to implement a broken "%lld" format 64 bit integer is
followed by more variables and the app executes on XP => use PRI macros
* Also fix partition ID being ignored when using Rufus MBR
* Also fix some global vars shadowing and add other improvements
* Application will start in portable mode if its name contains a 'p'
eg. "rufus_portable.exe" or "prufus.exe"
* Closes#264
* Also fix a couple smaller issues
* Add Windows To Go tooltips
* Set UEFI:TOGO partition type to EFI System Partition
* Improve apply-image progress report
* Fix MBR analysis for 4k disks
* Do not select Rufus MBR for Windows To Go
* Ignore partitions we don't care about
* Fix issues with AltMountVolume()
* Try to support 4k drives when setting up MS EFI partition
* Zero the start of the MSR partition to prevent leftover detection
* Fix unwanted use of MBR hidden sectors and redundant CloseHandle()
* Fix addon of BIOS compatibility extra partition
* Print apply image progress to info box
* Add apply support to WIM image handling
* Requires Windows 8 or later (Windows 7+ for WIM API support but Windows 8+ for ISO mount)
* Also fix an issue for Windows 7 x64 EFI mode
* Add a cheat mode for VMWare disk detection
* Add a cheat mode to delete the rufus_files directory
* Don't attempt a grub2 download in case we couldn't read the version
* Don't use a shared message buffer between info and status and also
use a more logical handling of low pri/high pri and timeout
* Also fix unwanted selection of info text on restore from minimize
* Also fix the localization generation and add more messages
* This allows no-sweat UEFI support of Windows installation ISOs
that contain a >4GB file for instance
* This is done through UEFI:TOGO (https://github.com/pbatard/uefi-togo)
and the efifs NTFS driver (http://efi.akeo.ie)
* Closes#414
* This will also be part of our implementation of #126
