* 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
* 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.
* 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
* 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
* 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.
* 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
* 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
* 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 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
* And reverted grub2 to the one from b3947fc026 (reverts commit 8b47e95eb5)
since FreeNAS doesn't work with the older one.
Sorry "Super Grub2 Disk" and other older GRUB2 based tools, but you'll need to
update the Grub version you use if you want to be compatible with Rufus.
* Closes#244
