  Sep.23.2006   DiskState 3.21

Whoohoo! News...

We have a new version of DiskState readied for you! Articulated, stackable and very artististly, Mr. Version 3.21 is the heavy-duty DiskState for you today:

  • Added PerfectDisk 8 support.
  • Bugfix: Fixed a crash when deleting files already deleted.
Many smiles from us here in the worlds smallest office building. Yup, the building is only 2 inches tall from basement to the roof! But despite the space here, we make big stuff happen :-) Enjoy!

  Jun.11.2006   DiskState 3.20

Joy joy joy! It’s summer here in this hemisphere :-)

DiskState 3.20 is ready so go upgrade today!
We have prepped a great release for you guys:

  • Added new rules to DiskClean: Adobe Acrobat search index files, app data log files, app data local log files, Apple QuickTime downloads, Macromedia Flash Player cache, Firefox download log, Opera download log, Sun Java Cache, Firefox cache and Opera cache.
  • Added new base select: Specific folders can now be given points. Files in folders with lowest points are less important than others and thus elected for selection.
  • Improved DiskClean engine: Added expansion of system environment variables and OS specific folder names in regular expressions. Example of a local OS specific folder is "%!Local AppData%\\MyCompany". Example of an environment variable expansion is "%APPDATA%\\MyCompany".
  • New context submenu that offers all depths of selected path to folder ignore list in duplicate files result window.
  • Usability: If all duplicates are selected, unselect files for entire group and show file list in a window afterwards.
  • Bug fixes: Mouse scroll wheel did not respond correctly in result lists, problems related to "close other open DiskState windows" should be gone now, context menu items for already deleted files are now disabled, stability with millions of files for duplicate scans.
  • Platform support update: Windows XP X64, Windows 2003 Server X64 and Windows Vista.
  • New command line option: /spaceview:D opens up disk analysis window on drive D etc.
  • Cosmetic: ’Total Usage Free’ to ’Total Used Free’ in main window.
  • Cosmetic: Compare files and folders result window is now resizable.
Enjoy the sunshine!

  Jan.9.2006   UrlFixer 1.20

Happy happy happy, joy joy! It is a brand new year!

We silently release our little UrlFixer 1.20. It only contains one single new feature: It decodes an url from the clipboard. E.g. http://www.geekcorp.com/p?val%3D%22this%22%20is%20fun%21 would translate to http://www.geekcorp.com/p?val="this" is fun!

  Dec.30.2005   Get DiskState 3.10!

Indeed!

DiskState 3.10 is here so upgrade today :-)
This time around, we’ve added a few nice features:

  • Greatly improved regular expression support. It now supports lookahead and lookbehind expressions. This was introduced in Perl 5 and allows you to e.g. match a "d" not followed by a "s" like d(?!s). This is available in the Deletion Engine, DiskClean, duplicate detection engine and so forth.
  • Added possibility to adjust 240 chars limit in long paths report. Adjust by invoking the context menu in the Reports dialog.
  • Added logging capabilities for error analysis and support. Deletion engine now supports verbose logging by the registry entry LogVerbose of the HKLM\Software\Geekcorp\DiskState\DeleteEngine key.
  • Added new Start Menu entry: Support\Run With Logging. This automatically starts up everything with full logging. After DiskState has been exited, the log data is collected along with the relevant DiskState registry values, zipped down and prepared for sending to us if you approve it.
  • Added "Opening containing folder" for duplicate files result window and DiskClean window.
  • Added "View File" to DiskClean context menu.
  • Added "Don’t ask again" and "Never show again" on some popups to avoid annoying requests. Also removed any sounds from DiskState windows to alert the user.
  • Added possibility to adjust the maximum path length of a report. Invoke by context menu of the report results, select "Set Maximum Path Limit".
  • Improved FireFox support.
  • Bugfixes: Deletion engine startup, warning on selecting all copies of file etc.
  • Cosmetic: Changed "Mozilla" buttons to "Firefox" ones even though we support various versions of Netscape and Mozilla beneath those "Firefox" buttons.
Happy New Year!

-- Sveinar, happy happy happy New Year megaphone!
