DyskFiles 1.0 — the first stable release, now on Windows too.

Downloads

• Windows (64-bit): DyskFiles-1.0.0-x64-setup.exe. Not code-signed: if SmartScreen warns, choose More info › Run anyway.

What's new

• Windows installer, with "Show in Explorer" and Ctrl shortcuts in the interface.
• The update checker picks the right installer for each platform.
• Links now point to https://dysklab.fanny.dev/produk/dyskfiles/

Libraries from 0.x open as they are; nothing to migrate.

DyskFiles 0.2.0

Requires macOS on Apple Silicon.

New

• PDF and fonts: first-page thumbnails and a zoomable PDF viewer; font previews with your own text (TTF, OTF, WOFF, WOFF2).
• Import Eagle Library: brings over tags, folders, ratings, notes and URLs. The Eagle library is only read.
• Auto Import: watch folders and pull in new files, including ones added while the app was closed.
• Open in default app: edit a file elsewhere; DyskFiles redraws it when you save.
• Similar images in Find Duplicated Items, next to identical files.
• Search syntax: tag:logo ext:png,jpg rating:>3 size:<2mb -draft (hover the search box for the list).
• Check Library: finds and repairs missing thumbnails, stray or unreadable files and other problems. Nothing is deleted.
• Export the current view to a folder with metadata.json and metadata.csv.
• Undo (⌘Z) for renames, ratings, tags, folders, notes and trashing.
• Update notices: DyskFiles now tells you when a new release is out and downloads it for you.

Improved

• Large libraries scroll smoothly: only the visible cards are drawn.
• Video and big files stream instead of loading into memory.
• Safer saves: metadata is written atomically.
• Electron 45 and sharp 0.35, with their security fixes; the window now runs sandboxed.

Install

1. Download DyskFiles-0.2.0-arm64.dmg, open it, and drag DyskFiles into Applications (choose Replace if 0.1.0 is there).
2. The app isn't notarized, so macOS blocks the first launch. Open System Settings > Privacy & Security and choose Open Anyway.

Updating from 0.1.0 is manual this once; later versions will offer the update themselves.
