* 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
* The Windows APIs may further modify the label compared to our proposed
version (e.g. remove trailing spaces), and we need an exact label for
the Syslinux/GRUB config file update.
* This issue was reported against Springdale Linux, where the isolinux.cfg
label was patched using 'SPRINGDALE\x20' instead of 'SPRINGDALE'
* Closes#784
* Also ensure that we don't replace NULL buffers in msapi_utf8.h and add
GetVolumeInformationU()
* 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
* The root of the issue is that Windows IOCTL_DISK_CREATE_DISK does not properly
zero all of the MBR/GPT/PBR structure with PARTITION_STYLE_RAW (which is what
diskpart uses to clean a disk), and leaves plenty of partition artefacts behind.
* This means that, when an image with complex partitioning has been applied, such
as Chromium/ChromeOS, you may end up with a drive that can not be repartitioned
or reformatted in Windows (and this is completely independent of whether Rufus
was used to perform these operations - For instance you will get the same issue
if you use Win32DiskImager and diskpart + clean).
* The only option left for users then is to reset/repartition their drives in Linux
or some other OS, as Windows' VDS becomes incapacitated to handle the drive, as
the problem persists independently of reset/re-plug/Windows platform being used.
* To work around this, we ensure that we zero the MBR/GPT/PBR sectors BEFORE calling
IOCTL_DISK_CREATE_DISK.
* Also move zeroing of the drive before partition reset.
* Closes#759
* Ridgecropt's GetFATSizeSectors() computation was incorrect
and resulted in data sectors being "wasted" (unaddressable)
* See: http://www.syslinux.org/archives/2016-February/024850.html
* Also revert the minfatsize check of Syslinux, since it no longer fails.
* 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.
* 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
* This creates issue due to dism incompatibilities between Windows versions
and some users are puzzled why they don't see their internal disks.
* Also make the bcdboot call more robust by using the system one if the USB one fails
* Also fix small issues in RunCommand() and MountVolume()
* 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
* 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
* 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
