Prevent Restore - 更新履歴

• Maintenance update

• With this update we are removing SHA1 code signing certificate from our executables.
  The SHA1 digest was deprecated by Microsoft many years ago.
  We keept it after that for many more years just to support old operating systems.
• From now on our code will be signed by modern SHA256 only.
  Thus, legacy systems, such as Windows 7 and earlier will see "unsigned executable" warning, because they don't recognize newest SHA256.
• You may still use our app, just click "yes" or "approve" to continue.
  Just a warning message on a legacy systems will change from normal blue to yellow warning.
• This change is related to legacy system only, such as Windows 7 and earlier. Windows 10 and 11 users will not be affected.
• Please accept our apologies, but we need to move forward, we can't stay with old digest in code signing forever.
  For those who worry about security - you can right click our file, select Properties, select digital signatures, and you will see that the code signing certificate is valid.

• This release adds support for disks of new laptops that has newest caching software. Let us explain.
• Any HDD or SSD disk is not "just a disk". It contains micro chip inside which controls read/write operations. In other words, it has small computer inside. Also, this chip has a caching system to speed up those operations.
• Each manufacturer has its own software that runs on this chip, and its a pain for us to support all of them, but we are doing our best to keep our own software with up to date information about these new systems.

• Improved progress bar experience
• Fixed issue with a missing "Continue" button on for some users
• Fixed issue when the app crashes upon quick click
• Fixed issue when the user required to restart computer when the work is done (in some cases it was not neccessary)

• This release improves internal algorithms related to the language of user interface.
  Also, we have added translation to Chinese (Simplified).

• In this update we will avoid any happy words in the description due to the situation in Europe.
  We would like to let you know that we keep working improving our software, and in this release we made some technical changes to the code (related to security).

• In this release we are fixing few bugs related to the app's performance.

• Fixed critical bug related to the user interface: non-english users have noticed wrong dates on the screen which shows you how many days you are using our app.
  This is important to know, because we provide 6 month free trial period and the wrong number makes you upset.
  Especially, when some of our users saw numbers like 2425242525 and more days...
  That's have no sense, of cause! We have fixed this bug.
  Note that this issue was related only to users who have interface language different than english.
  In english version the app worked fine. Please, accept our apologies.

• Added new feature: now you can see current speed of disk writes (realtime statistics).
  In fact, that speed means amount of data overwritten every second on the selected disk.
  This function only available in the "full overwrite" mode.
  We enjoy this small, but nice and informative function, do you? :)
• Added Polish translation.
• Added Arabic translation.
• Improved Italian translation.
• Fixed issue with the startup record which can result in app crash on Windows startup.
• Fixed issue with the startup record that could be disabled.
• Fixed few small bugs related to the user interface.
• Removed reminder which offers you to support our apps by posting links in the social media.
  This wasn't popular at all, so we have decided not to disturb you with that.

• This update includes several system changes that will affect stability and security.
  Some of changes will improve look and style.
• Added new versioning policy: from now on version number will start with two digits - year of release, and two next digits will mean build number.
  The dot will be removed (but will remain in technical information).
• Improved user interface of several system screens.
• Improved uninstaller module: it was signed by code signing certificate to prevent security issues.
  Previously, unsigned executable could rise warning message in your antivirus, but this is now resolved.
• Fixed issue with the blinking menu icon.
  It should and it will blink, but will not crash anymore.

• This update includes several bug fixes that were discovered with the initial release one week ago.
  Please accept our apologies! If you will notice anything else that crashing our app - please let us know!
  As you can see - we are fixing any issues quickly, and we can update our app every week, if needed.

• Improved design, now look and style of 2021.
• Added Dutch translation of the user interface (partial), big thanks to our volunteer Peter Medemblik.
