Added more cached wallpaper locations/files and the account pictures paths (both from AppData\Roaming) to DataGrab backup for each user account. Added start menu export to XML when DataGrab is backing up the currently running OS. Great for reference. Added the ability to force-update Malware Search Tool definitions even when d7x thinks there isn’t an update available. Also updated Malware Search Tool definitions with this release, so be sure to check for updates within the tool...

Most of you know I integrated DataGrab into D7 some time ago. As part of making D7 more modular, I have decided to separate DataGrab once again. Don’t worry, DataGrab is still integrated into D7, but with the separated release I am gearing it more towards a personal backup solution with batch/automation. So now we have DataGrab v2, currently ALPHA release. Final release. It should function exactly as it does within D7, with the exception...
