* InternetGetConnectedState() is next to useless and doesn't provide
coherent outcome on the ARM64 platform I'm testing with. This results
in Rufus declaring that Internet is unavailable on platforms that do
have actual Internet connectivity.
* Swicth to using INetworkListManager::GetConnectivity(), which actually
reports a dependable result.
* Closes#1691
* Also remove the mutex for uprintf(), which may produce thread lockout
and remove an unwanted double GetSignatureName() call on startup.
* Looks like executables installed from the Windows Store launch with a "/InvokerPRAID"
added parameter, which of course BREAKS apps that have a defined set of parameters
and don't except that Microsoft would gingerly add random unwanted stuff there...
* The provision of this extra parameter also appears to be tied to using one of:
- <TargetDeviceFamily Name="Windows.Universal" ...>
- <uap:SplashScreen ...>
- <Application EntryPoint="$targetentrypoint$" ...>
in the appxmanifest.
* This resulted in our argument processing loop to cause early exit on account that an
unexpected option was provided.
* Fix this by adding an explicit check for /InvokerPRAID and not exiting on unhandled
params and removing or altering the 3 appxmanifest options listed above.
* Also set an explicit Windows.FullTrustApplication and remove splash screen.
* Also update _pre-commit.sh to update appstore build number automatically.
* Also remove splash screen images, add store listing CSV and toggle App builds to manual.
* Closes#1690
* Make sure that instantiated objects are released.
* Factorize the instantiating of disk interfaces.
* Allow the provision of an offset to delete a single partition.
* Add a ListVdsVolumes() call (which is pointless since Microsoft *CRIPPLED* its VDS implementation).
* Make sure that if we skip a deep directory during scan, we count at
least one block of data.
* Also produce a note about deep directory long scan times and improve
the formatting of some messages.
* The presence of a > 4 GB file forces the use of NTFS which is incompatible with
SysLinux 4.x or earlier. As such, if an image uses SysLinux only, there's no
point in enabling MBR as SysLinux won't boot.
* Required for ISOs such as securityonion-2.0.1-rc1.iso.
* Don't use hDrive handle for longer than necessary
* Move all the popcount() function calls into missing.h
* Ensure that the thread_affinity[] array is properly sized
* Improve timeouts for conflicting process search
* A user is reporting that, on one of their platforms, Rufus is writing to the wrong target during the file-copy
phase and using their existing Y: local drive instead of the drive associated to the USB, despite the fact
that Rufus is passing the right volume name to GetVolumePathNamesForVolumeName().
* Here's the PowerShell wmic output, confirming that the volume GUID obtained by Rufus is the right one:
DriveLetter : Y:
DeviceId : \\?\Volume{000349b1-17d0-69f6-c13f-f31162930600}\
Capacity : 118540464128
FileSystem : NTFS
Label : Y-DISK
DriveLetter : H:
DeviceId : \\?\Volume{b150ff4a-d62b-11ea-86e3-f49634660e54}\
Capacity : 15791824896
FileSystem : FAT32
Label : ADATA16GB
* And here's the Rufus log demonstrating that GetVolumePathNamesForVolumeName() is returning the *WRONG* letter:
Found volume \\?\Volume{b150ff4a-d62b-11ea-86e3-f49634660e54}\
\\?\Volume{b150ff4a-d62b-11ea-86e3-f49634660e54}\ is already mounted as Y: instead of H: - Will now use this target instead...
* The last line shows, without the shadow of a doubt, that we did feed "\\?\Volume{b150ff4a-d62b-11ea-86e3-f49634660e54}\" to
GetVolumePathNamesForVolumeName() and that this API call was successful (returned a non zero size) but ultimately returned
the wrong letter (Y: instead of H:)...
* Therefore, Windows is BUGGY and the use of GetVolumePathNamesForVolumeName() must be avoided.
* 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
* This is mostly aimed at Debian 11 netinst on the Raspberry Pi 4
* Only available for regular UEFI ISOs if GPT and FAT are selected (no MBR ESPs).
* Also fix a MinGW warning in GetUnusedDriveLetter()
* 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
* Only applies for blank UEFI:NTFS drives for now. UEFI:NTFS Windows drives are
still set to use NTFS only (since Windows 7 doesn't support UEFI exFAT boot).
* Windows platforms prior to Windows 10 1703 cannot access any logical partition besides the
first one (we don't even get a volume for those).
* This fix enables the use of physical + offset for ext# formatting to work around this,
which is file since we don't actually need to mount the partition.
* Also fix ext2fs_open2() not handling normalized versions of Windows drive paths ("\\?\...")
* Also fix an issue where we would make the drive letter unavailable after formatting a
standalone partition to ext#.
* Also ensure that we return an error if the drive we attempt to locate a partition on
through an offset does not match the currently selected one.
* Also remove some unused calls in drive.c.
* Closes#1374
* Make sure they are always unchecked for pure DD images
* Make sure Quick Format is checked and disabled for ReFS or Large FAT32
* Also make sure Fixes for old BIOSes is disabled for pure DD images
* Remove unused iso_op_in_progress and use a single op_in_progress that gets
set when we disable the controls.
* Also fix an issue where Ctrl-L was being processed as Alt-L due yet another
completely backwards Windows behaviour where the message that is meant to
indicating whether Alt is pressed is also sometimes used to indicate that
another key is being pressed if the dialog doesn't have keyboard focus...
* 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
* Regression was introduced with 3c1ef23ff3 and 2ff6da49f0.
* Because of it extended label and icon, fixes for old BIOSes and Rufus MBR were not applied.
* Closes#1348
* Only enabled when Advanced format options are shown
* Also enable reading of extfs volume label
* Also improve GRUB lookup fallback
* Also fix possible truncation when sanitizing labels
* Also write a zeroed MBR when non-bootable is selected
* 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
* Add display of persistence controls on relevant images
* Add progress on ext3 formatting and improve error reporting
* Also improve MountVolume() and fix some Coverity warnings
* Also disable Launch button while we do so
* Also add new <Ctrl>-<Alt>-<Y> cheat mode
* Also terminate update thread before exiting if running
* Also set version to rufus-next
* What would be nicer was if half these Coverity issues weren't false positives...
* Also update Readme and fix progress bar colour not being reset after error
* FS selection might default to NTFS instead of FAT32 after having selected a Linux ISO if
no drive was plugged in when the ISO was selected and then a drive was plugged using NTFS.
* Also display Fido's exist code
* Closes#1255
* Center dialog on open
* Close dialog on main application exit
* Display ISO short name & size on status bar during download
* Display ISO download progress on taskbar
* Also fix improper detection of EAGET Mass Storage USB Device as HDD
* 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.
* Closes#1268
* Issue was introduced in 521034da99 and has
to do with VS2017's handling of static strings in RELEASE mode.
Fix is to use a static char array instead.
* Also fix MinGw build warnings and increase process search timeout
* 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!
