Bugfixes

Note

This will show the bugfixes of all preview versions

Preview 1:

• Fixed an issue that caused the AppX package addition dialog to show up on projects with Windows 7 images loaded

Preview 2:

• Fixed a translation issue in the Configuration List Editor
• Fixed an issue where the AppX package information dialog would not show the path of the store logo assets and the path to the package manifest for some applications
• Fixed an issue where the path roots of the AppX package information dialog contained double backslashes (\\)
• Fixed an issue where the driver information dialog threw an exception when loading in some cases
• Fixed an issue where the project tree view would not be cleared when entering the online installation management mode
• Fixed an issue where the "no selected items" panel of the AppX package addition dialog would not be resized when removing an entry or clearing all entries
• The AppX package information dialog no longer allows you to copy the "Asset Unavailable" resource
• The AppX package removal dialog no longer appends " (Cortana)" to the entry: Microsoft.549981C3F5F10. To view that display name, simply right-click that entry now

Preview 3:

• Fixed a translation issue in the driver information menu entry

Preview 4:

• Fixed an issue where the program would not get package information on Windows 8 hosts
• Fixed an issue where AppX package addition would fail on Windows 8 images (backported to version 0.3.1)
• Fixed an issue where the program would not get basic image information automatically when switching indexes
• Fixed an issue where the program would not be translated properly on systems in English (US)
• The Windows PE setting dialogs are now shown only when background processes have finished

New features

• CODE: introduced the Utilities namespace, which removes duplicate functions and puts the original ones in a centralized location
• The package addition operation now shows a correct representation of the release type
• The capability information dialog now represents download and install sizes correctly, in case a capability's sizes need to be shown in kilobytes
• Introduced the image split dialog

DT032-SplitImages.mp4

• The image information dialog can now be opened from the single image index error dialog
• In the online installation management mode, the AppX resource save dialog now defaults to the user's Pictures library and will default to the project directory otherwise

• The existing mount directory link now opens the mounted image picker instead of the folder browser

• The program immediately gets information about an image file now when selecting "Another image" in the image information dialog, if it had been specified
• You can now click the AppX resource save notification to view the resource

• The program directly unmounts read-only mounted images discarding changes when clicking the "Unmount image" button
• The AppX package addition dialog now supports adding App Installer packages (.appinstaller files)

Note

When an App Installer package is dropped to the addition list or when one is specified, DISMTools will download the full application package for you (since these files have an XML structure) and use that instead of the specified package

• Menu items are now enabled and disabled according to the versions of the Windows image you're servicing and the specified DISM executable

Available menu items on a project with a Windows 7 image mounted

• You can now export the third-party drivers of a Windows image or active installation

• You can now configure the target path and the scratch space of Windows PE images

• The friendly display name (the name that shows in the Applications list) is now shown next to the application display name in the AppX package information dialog (when possible)

• You can now access the Configuration List Editor from the image capture dialog

• The design of the initial setup screen has been updated to reduce control flicker and to add more functionality

Note

The screenshots use Segoe UI as the header font due to them being captured in a Windows Server 2012 R2 VM. The program will use that font as a fallback if a system is not running Windows 10 or 11, or if the Segoe UI Variable font is not present

• Added links to the My Digital Life discussion in the About screen, represented with a lightbulb

• The program will now show the dependency packages to be installed alongside an AppX package
