4.27
Seer / QuickLook integration added:
- Seer and QuickLook both provide a quick and easy way to preview files by simply pressing the space bar when a file is selected in Windows File Explorer. If you have either Seer or QuickLook active (running in the background), press space to quickly view the contents of the currently selected file within WizTree. Press space again to close the view.
- Filtering/searching by time now supported
- WizTree would incorrectly display "internal corruption detected" error if running from a path containing non ansi characters (e.g. Chinese or Japanese) - fixed
- Config folder override registry setting was not working when WizTree not running in admin mode - fixed
CSV export can now be configured to export UTC date/times instead of local system date/times. Use command line parameter:
- /exportUTCTime=1
- Setting the license key (supporter code) and configuring auto update checking via the installer will now work for all users on the PC regardless of which user ran the installer. Previously these settings were user specific which could cause confusion
- Fixed allocated size calculation bug that could occur on drives formatted with large cluster sizes
- Most of WizTree's configuration options can now be set via the registry - useful for mass deployments (installed version only)
- Add settings to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareAntibody SoftwareWizTreeConfigOverridefrmWizTreeMain key.
- Setting names should match those used in the WizTree3.ini file and all value types should be of type "REG_SZ" (string).
- e.g. to set the "run as admin" option to false create a "REG_SZ" value named "actRunAsAdmin_Checked" in the
- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareAntibody SoftwareWizTreeConfigOverridefrmWizTreeMain registry key and set the value to "FALSE"
- To make a setting "read only", prefix the name in the registry with an exclamation point (!), e.g. !actRunAsAdmin_Checked
- When the installed version of WizTree starts (does not matter which user is logged in), it will first look to the registry and set its settings accordingly. If WizTree is being run by a user with admin rights, it will also update these registry settings when it's closed unless the registry setting is "read only" (!).
- From WizTree 4.27 onwards, the installer will automatically create the necessary registry entries if it's run with command line parameters /supportercode=xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx, /runasadmin=TRUE/FALSE, or /checkforupdates=TRUE/FALSE
- To set runasadmin / checkforupdates to read only, use:
- /!runasadmin=TRUE/FALSE, or /!checkforupdates=TRUE/FALSE

4.26
- Total disk and free space will now be displayed (if available) when scanning a single folder (local or network share)
- Fixed path sorting bug on "File View" that occurred when "scan MFT" tweak enabled
- Fixed "No MFT Root found" error when loading some CSV files when "scan MFT" tweak enabled
- Fixed UI issue on Windows 7 when classic theme enabled
- Fixed issue with color index #1 being changed to red when using the "Options->Colors" function due to buggy color picker control
- Trying to export a treemap image file that's too large to fit in memory will now display an error message instead of crashing the application
- Polish, Japanese and Turkish translations updated
|
4.25
- CSV Export options that were previously only available via command line are now selectable when using the Export to CSV function.
Additional data items can be included in the export along with extra filtering and sorting options.
Note that either "Tree View" or "File View" data will be exported depending on which tab is active.
Select the correct tab before selecting the CSV export function.
- CSV file exports will now include drive size info by default (total space, space used, space free and reserved space).
To exclude this info from the exported CSV file, set command line parameter /exportdrivecapacity=0
- CSV files containing drive size info will have the info displayed on screen (previously only space used was displayed when importing a CSV file)
- CSV file import speed greatly increased
- Fixed bug in 32 bit version that would prevent WindowsSystem32 folder from being scanned correctly when using slower non NTFS method
|
4.24
- WizTree will now hide drives hidden by Windows Group Policy settings (if any). Note that these hidden drives can still be selected by using 'Select Folder' and then typing in the drive name, e.g. "c:" (like Windows Explorer allows)
- percentage displayed for file extensions was not calculated correctly when multiple items were scanned together - fixed
- Percentages displayed will now always default to being calculated using "allocated" values instead of "size", unless sort order is set to "Size" as "Allocated" is the default sort order
- Duplicate detection method now defaults to name, size AND date (previously just name and size) - will affect new installs only
- it's now possible to set the WizTree config folder location via command line parameter. e.g. /configfolder="c:WizTreeConfig"
- OR by creating the following registry key:
- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREAntibody SoftwareWizTree
- and creating a string named "configfolder" within this key containing the config file folder location.
- The command line parameter will take precedence over the registry key. This setting and command line work with both the installer (setup) and WizTree executables (4.24 or newer)
|
4.23
- Copy/Cut functions were not working correctly - fixed
- Values too wide to fit into a cell will be indicated by a red vertical line on the left edge of the cell to indicate that the column should be widened to display the entire number
- WizTree application icon updated ("extra large" icon added)
|
4.22
- Fixed issue with file system monitoring in 4.21 which could cause deleted files not to be detected
- Fixed scaling issue with color selection form
- Korean translation updated
- Swedish translation updated
|
4.21
- Improved threading when in non Admin mode and when scanning non NTFS drives/network drives/folders, resulting in more than 4x faster scanning of SSD drives
- Reserved Space is now displayed for NTFS volumes. This is space reserved for the Windows operating system and can be quite significant for drives with Windows installed. It also accounts for most of the difference between the total allocated space calculated by WizTree and the "space used" reported by Windows. The remaining difference is made up of other NTFS file system data (such as directory indexes) which do not appear in the WizTree scan results.
- File grouping size can now be set via Options->Tweaks->File group minimum size
- MTP/PTP device support updated (MTP/PTP devices are things like mobile phones or digital cameras):
- - Context menu issues with MTP/PTP devices fixed
- - Copy/Cut now working correctly with MTP/PTP devices
- Improved tree loading speed and treemap rendering for drives containing very large numbers of files
- Fixed context menu issues when running on Windows XP ("Send to" not working, missing text in sub menus)
- Export to CSV would not export anything when "File view" selected and no files selected - now exports all files on the list.
- Context menu issues with very long file names fixed
- Improved detection of newly inserted USB drives
- Added "Expand All" (Shift+F4) option to File menu - will expand all tree nodes. Press F4 to reset the expansion
- Portable version now defaults to starting in non admin mode. Enable "Options->Always run as Administrator" to have WiaTree always start in Admin mode
- Fixed issue with config ini file settings not being read correctly when containing BOM marker (added by some text editors)
|
4.20
- New tweak option added (Options->Tweaks):
- "Scan MFT (if possible) when a folder is selected for analysis" - default is off
- Normally, when a folder is selected for analysis WizTree will scan using the Windows API (MFT scanning is not used). This method is generally quicker when analyzing small to medium sized folders, but for very large folders it can be much quicker to scan the entire MFT file instead.
- If this option is enabled WizTree will always scan the MFT file (is possible) when a folder is selected. You can also force WizTree to scan the MFT when a folder is selected by holding down the CTRL key when starting a new scan. The CTRL key must be down when the scanning process starts for this to work.
- Fixed possible reverse order sorting issue in File View when scanning multiple drives/folders
- Cut/Copy files to clipboard working again on Windows XP/2000/2003 (stopped working in 4.18 due to compatibility issues with new code)
- Processing of folders with millions of files with unique file extensions greatly sped up. Previously WizTree could appear to stop responding when loading such folders into the tree view or when generating the tree map.
- Tree map export now always processes files and folders in size order as the resulting output looks much nicer this way
- Windows Explorer context menu shortcut key for WizTree changed from W to Z (from &WizTree to Wi&zTree) to prevent conflict with "New" option
- Fixed issue where file sizes/allocated sizes could incorrectly be set to 0 for hard linked files in some cases
- MFT scanning speed up to 15% faster in certain cases over previous version
|
4.19
- WizTree can now locate duplicate files by Name and Size, or Name, Size and Date.
- WizTree considers file names that have been automatically renamed by Windows as equivalent.
- e.g. "NAME.EXT", "NAME (1).EXT", "NAME (2).EXT", "NAME - COPY.EXT", "NAME - COPY (1).EXT" are equivalent
- Note that WizTree currently doesn't compare the file contents, so take care before deleting files that might not be true duplicates.
- To locate duplicates, select the "File View" then select the duplicate detection method from the "Duplicate Files" drop down box. If any duplicate files are located while scanning, they will be indicated by a "+" symbol next to the file name - click on the plus to expand the list of duplicate files which will be displayed under the original file.
- New "Dup Count" (number of duplicates the file has) and "Dup Size" (total size of all other duplicate files) columns will appear and the list can be sorted by these to quickly locate duplicates. Select the "Duplicates only" checkbox to quickly display only files that have duplicates.
- A new separate "File Name" column has been added to the "File View" that displays just the file name, excluding the path
- File view might not have shown all relevant files when "max files" was not set to "ALL" and sorting was not by size - fixed
- File view sorting is much quicker now
- Regular expression filters would incorrectly be applied to "entire path" when match by "name only" was selected if the reg expression contained a backslash - fixed
- Themes are now automatically disabled when WizTree is running as local system account ("SYSTEM") as this would cause some display elements not to render correctly when using remote access tools such as ScreenConnect
- Stability improvements when scanning network folders and drives
|
4.18
- "Include" filter is now no longer applied WHILE scanning as this causes files and folders to be filtered out incorrectly - it is now applied after scanning. Only the "Exclude" filter is applied while scanning now.
- Improved "=folder" filter processing. It's now possible to locate folders of a certain size by using a filter like:
- =folder >1g
- (This finds folders larger than 1 Gig in size)
- fixed bug in allocated size filtering (file size was used instead of allocated size when filtering by allocated size, e.g. a>100m)
- Copy/Cut/Delete and other operations now work correctly with multiple files from different folders selected. Previously it would only work if all files were in the same folder.
- progress bar tweaked to be a little smoother
- progress was not being updated on screen when loading CSV files - fixed
