* 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
* Such as WebConverger (webc-35.1.iso)
* Also fix non installation of Syslinux if Alt-E (dual UEFI/BIOS) is set
* Also update README and AppVeyor script
* 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
* 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
* 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...
* 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
* 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
* Using /syslinux.cfg creates issues, so we force the use of /boot/[i386|x86_64]/loader/isolinux.cfg
* IMPORTANT: This does NOT fix openSuse based live ISO support as the openSuse boot scripts are NOT
designed to handle anything else but an ISO9660 filesystem. Especially, they cannot handle FAT.
* Closes#478
* Also set rufus-next to 2.2
* 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
* 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
