* Also add Ctrl-A as a new cheat-mode to toggle the use of Rufus MBR (which is enabled by default)
which replaces the previous UI checkbox. The Disk ID field is now completely removed as we now
use the default values for XP and non XP installs, and will expect people with multiple disks to
disconnect all except the one where they plan to install Windows.
* This enables the use of Ctrl-SELECT to also extract files from a .zip
when using non-bootable, DOS, UEFI-NTFS, etc.
* Also clean up some uprintf line terminations and some additional code.
* Also fix some Coverity and MinGW warnings.
* With the removal of Windows 7 support, wrong platform archs in the check for updates
(that has now been fixed) and switch to an x86_64 default MinGW binary, we have enough
breaking changes to warrant a version bump for the major. So just do that.
* Also fix a couple Coverity warnings and update a URL.
* This moves the extended Windows 11 options (bypass TPM & Secure Boot) away from
"Image options" into a new explicit dialog, along with supplementary customization
such as enabling offline account (for Windows 11 22H2) and skipping all data
collection questions.
* This customization is now enacted through an unattend.xml file rather than offline
registry manipulation, so that this *should* also work with the Windows Store version.
* Also update arch detection and rework/reorganize upcoming translation changes.
* Note: The 'Remove "unsupported hardware" desktop watermark' option is *UNTESTED*.
* This fixes the regression introduced in c28f9bc491.
* 'if ((a && !b) || (!a && b))' can not always be simplified as 'if (a != b)' when the types for 'a' and 'b' are not straight booleans.
* Closes#1862
* Also drop the use of '%C' in printf() expression, as it is intended to print wide characters and not turn a char to uppercase.
* This is part of #1838, where we need to sort the version.dll sideloading problem for MinGW.
* A subsequent patch will be applied to MSVC, to more generally delay the loading of DLLs.
* Also fix a typo with an assert expression.
* If 'Extended Windows 11 Installation' mode is selected, the system registry hive of
'sources\boot.wim' is patched to add the Setup\LabConfig registry keys that bypass
the TPM 2.0/Secure Boot/8GB+ RAM Windows 11 system requirements.
* If users set the persistent size to max, we may run into a situation
where projected size (which is always a rough estimation) is too low.
* When persistence is in use, we increase the projected size by 10%, to
ensure that the above scenario cannot happen.
* Also work around potential issues with Windows APIs when the application
is launched from the root of a drive.
* Closes#1467
* Also ensure that previous element is set when repositioning a
control to preserve tabbing order
* Also fix x64 version being able to download x86 BETA
* Surround macro params to ensure expected results
* Fix copy-paste errors
* Fix a potential buffer overflow in SetSectionHeaders()
* Add const modifier where relevant
* Use GetWindowLongPtr() everywhere
* Use proper sprintf format for unsigned int
* Use %s for printf-like funcs (https://www.viva64.com/en/w/v618/print/)
* Closes#1464
* You can use <Alt> to switch modes during an operation that supports it (e.g. Checksum
computation, DD image writing or zeroing, save to VHD, download, etc.
* IMPORTANT: This is *NOT* available for all operations. Especially, if you were hoping
to get transfer speed or ETA during ISO or WIM extraction, you *WILL* be disappointed.
* Also harmonize the code in checksum.c
* Add VDS formatting support (through an Alt-V cheat mode)
* Add partition index support
* Improve(?) Windows To Go support by following Microsoft recommended partition order
* Code refactoring & cleanup
* This should help Windows users who create a GPT/UEFI drive and try to use it in BIOS/Legacy
* Also make sure that we take into account the split space for both "SELECT" and "DOWNLOAD"
* This is accomplished through Fido (https://github.com/pbatard/Fido), a *SIGNED*
PowerShell script, that is downloaded from GitHub and that resides in memory for
the duration of a session.
* The reason we use a downloaded PS script, rather than an embedded on, is because:
- Microsoft have regularly been changing the deal with regards to how retail ISOs
can be downloaded, and not for the better, so we can't simply embed a static
means of downloading ISOs and expect that to work forever.
- By using an external script, we can immediately respond to whatever new means of
*ANNOYING* their legitimate users Microsoft will come up with next, as well as
make sure that, the minute a new retail version of Windows becomes available, it
also becomes available for download in Rufus.
* Note that if you are concerned about downloading a remote PS script that is being
run at the same level as an elevated application, you should understand that:
- Only scripts downloaded from GitHub, from an account that is protected with 2FA,
are allowed to run (i.e. someone would first have to steal a *physical* 2FA key
to be in a position to upload a malicious script).
- On top of this, only scripts that are signed with a separate private key (RSA +
AES-256), that is itself also protected with a strong unique password which only
a single person knows (and must manually enter each time they want to make a new
version of the script available for download), are allowed to run.
The above means that there's about as much chance for someone to manage to upload
a malicious script on the GitHub servers, that Rufus would allow to run, as there
is for someone to upload a malicious version of Rufus itself.
Still, if you are paranoid and have concerns that, even as you can validate from
its source that Rufus does not attempt to execute any remote script unless a user
actively selected and clicked the DOWNLOAD button, you can also completely disable
the remote script download feature, if you just set the update check to disabled
(which, by the way, Rufus *EXPLICITLY* asks you to choose whether you want to
enable or not, the very first time you run the application).
* Also remove _unlinkU() which duplicates what DeleteFileU() already does.
* 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
* 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
