Starting with D7 5.6, dMaintenance 1.5, dSupport 2.3, and some other apps and their versions, they (and their installers, where applicable) will be digitally signed! Details: the signature will state “John Shaw” (my legal first/last name) instead of “Foolish IT” as this is not an official corporate entity. Sweet! If I’ve forgotten to digitally sign a Foolish IT app that you use and you want it signed, just let me know!
Just uploaded the Pre-Release of D7 v5.4 The only change in this version is the ability to run D7 Auto on write-locked flash drives. Previously this could not be done as D7 wrote information regarding the progress of D7 Auto to the D7.INI – now D7 temporarily stores this information in the registry. The information is removed from the registry when D7 shuts down (as long as D7 Auto is not in progress.) In case […]
ATTENTION dSupport users! I have just updated dSupport to version 2.0 with the following new features: Ability to download your remote support application every time the user clicks the Remote Support button – this way your client will always have the latest version of your remote support app! Ability to use JPG, PNG, or GIF files for your supportlogo (animation/transparency supported!) Ability to include a custom icon for the application (at runtime, not embedded in […]
Yes, I already know about it. No, I do not know why. Yes, I have contacted Microsoft about the problem and submitted their vendor dispute form. No, I have not received a response from them. If you want to help, submit it to Microsoft as a false positive.
Now it actually runs as a Windows service!
“Is D7 really so buggy that you have to update it every couple of days? Dude, why not wait for a legitimate major update once a month or less? It’s like you can’t get it right,.sort of like Bill what his name…Go fly a kite at Kitty Hawk…“ [EDITED: Reason being, I flew off the handle a little bit…] Some anonymous scum bag who likes drive-by internet put downs sent me that just a few minutes […]
Yep. v5.1 now downloads any missing application on the fly! What this means for new users – NO SETUP REQUIRED! What this means for existing users – now you can keep slim copies of D7 with no 3rd party applications for quick and easy transfer when working on remote systems, etc. Usage scenario: you’re working remotely and need to transfer D7 to a remote PC. Rather than transfer D7 and ALL of the 3rd party […]
Here’s the deal: I get a lot of requests for the ability to run D7 Auto’s Maintenance routine with command line parameters for full automation and scripting usage. Likewise, I get requests for the same of dSupport, sort of a “corporate” version where a systems administrator can push out maintenance via group policy. What it boils down to is that some people want to run these maintenance tasks from my apps with certain additional features […]
I had several requests from techs who like to leave D7 and all of the 3rd Party Tools on a client’s computer – especially when working on a remote system the download of everything can be quite time consuming… So with v4.9.6 the Close & Delete D7 Directory button has been renamed to Close with Options. Now it enables you to delete itself as before, but you may instead choose to password protect the D7 […]
Watch it here!
