v2.11.0.0

• Security: Suspicious changes checks the places malware changes to start with Windows or take over the PC, and
  lists what looks suspicious, each with why and how sure:

  • startup keys and folders, scheduled tasks and services that run a script host, an unsigned program from Temp,
    Downloads, AppData or ProgramData, or a program that's gone;
  • the registry: Winlogon's shell and sign-in program, AppInit_DLLs, programs redirected to another (Image File
    Execution Options, SilentProcessExit), Command Prompt AutoRun, open commands for programs and Settings, BootExecute
    and sign-in security packages;
  • WMI subscriptions that run commands, browser policies that force extensions or lock pages, the hosts file, a
    proxy, Defender switched off by policy or told to skip places, and swapped accessibility programs.

  Nothing starts ticked. Remove saves what it changes first, so Restore puts it back; Scan has Defender
  scan the program a finding runs.

• Security: More scans adds a scan of a chosen folder or drive, and Microsoft Defender Offline, which restarts the
  PC and scans before Windows starts.

• Fix my PC points to the Security tab when it finds suspicious changes that are very likely malware.

v2.10.0.0

• New Security tab, next to Device Health, for malware and spyware:
  • Quick scan and Full scan through Microsoft Defender (one administrator approval), with its virus
    definitions updated first.
  • What Defender found: active threats with their kind, severity and where they were found, to remove one at a time
    or all at once; what it already quarantined or removed is listed as history.
  • Installed apps that are known to be unwanted (browser hijackers, adware, fake optimizers and driver updaters),
    uninstalled the way Uninstall Software does it.
  • Block unwanted apps turns Defender's protection against potentially unwanted apps on or off.
  • When another antivirus is in charge, the tab says so and leaves scanning to it.
• Fix my PC suggests removing active threats and unwanted apps.
• Device Health: the Security card shows active threats, and its button opens the Security tab.

v2.9.3.0

• Uninstall Software: Remove vendor bloat finds the trials, promos and PC maker add-ons a new PC comes with
  (McAfee and Norton trials, preinstalled games, Dell, HP, Lenovo, Acer, ASUS and MSI extras) and uninstalls the ones
  you tick, after a restore point. The ones that are safe to remove start ticked; maker tools some people use (support,
  hotkeys, fan and lighting control) are listed unticked with what each one does. Drivers and Microsoft's own apps
  are never listed.

v2.9.2.0

• Updates: ticking the check box above the list to select every app no longer shows an error ("The property
  'Selected' cannot be found") when more than one app is listed.
• Device Health fills in about twice as fast when the app opens: its checks run side by side instead of one after
  another, and start while the window is still opening.
• Installed Software is now Uninstall Software, and it can uninstall several apps at once: tick them (or tick the box
  above the list for all), then Uninstall selected. One confirmation lists them.

v2.9.1.0

• Reliability says more. Device Health's Reliability card adds the last blue screen's date and why it happened in
  plain words, hardware errors and disk errors from the last 30 days, apps that stopped responding, and failed
  Windows updates.
• App crashes show a color: amber with any in the last 7 days, red with 10 or more.
• The apps using the most memory have their own list in the Performance card, each with its name, a bar and how
  much it uses, instead of lines without a label.
• Network colors: the network and address are green while connected (red when the router gave no address), and
  link speed is green at 1 Gbps, amber at 100 Mbps and red below that (lower thresholds on Wi-Fi).

v2.9.0.0

• Fix my PC, on Device Health: one button that checks app and Windows updates, leftover files, security,
  reliability and startup apps, and lists what would make the PC run better. The safe fixes are ticked (updates,
  Defender's virus definitions and a quick scan, the firewall and real-time protection back on, leftover files); a
  Windows repair, optimizing drives and startup apps are there if you want them; and what it can't do itself (a
  waiting restart, driver updates, a nearly full drive) points to where it can be done. One click does the ticked
  ones, with one administrator approval and a restore point first. It never restarts the PC by itself.
• 15 more tweaks on Extras, all restorable: hide Widgets and the Copilot button, search as an icon, more pins in
  Start, drive letters first, no OneDrive and Microsoft 365 offers in File Explorer, no recent files in Home, activity
  history and Recall snapshots off, only required diagnostic data, and turning off hibernation.
• A new Speed category: no startup delay for sign-in apps, Edge not running in the background, hardware-accelerated
  GPU scheduling, and the High performance power plan (brought back where Windows 11 hides it).
• More to clean up: browser caches, graphics shader caches, Windows' own Disk Cleanup items (including the
  previous Windows installation), the component store, and old driver versions Windows keeps after updates. All are
  off by default; drivers in use are never removed.

v2.8.0.0

• New Extras tab (Ctrl+0), with Windows tweaks and shortcuts to Windows' hidden tools, each grouped by topic in
  categories you open and close.
• 35 tweaks for settings Windows hides: the classic right-click menu, file name extensions and hidden files, End
  task on the taskbar, taskbar icons on the left, no web results in Start search, no tips and ads, mouse acceleration
  off, long file paths, Fast Startup off and more. Each shows whether it's on, and the ones that change all of Windows
  ask for administrator approval.
• Everything can be undone. The first time a tweak changes, what was there before is saved: Restore puts it
  back exactly, and Restore all undoes every change made there. Changed by this app shows just those.
• 52 shortcuts to tools Windows 11 tucks away: God Mode, the classic user accounts (control userpasswords2),
  System Properties, Environment variables, Device Manager, Group Policy, Services, Registry Editor and more. Open
  one, or Add to desktop; Remove from desktop takes away only what the app added.
• Restart Explorer in one click, for changes to File Explorer and the taskbar.

v2.7.1.0

• Device Health fits the page better. Drives and Temperatures sit side by side, the drive bars stretch to fill
  their card, and Trends shows two lines to a row, so there's much less empty space and less to scroll.
• No battery card on desktops. Some desktops report a placeholder battery that's always full; it no longer shows
  as a Battery card or a Battery health trend. Without a battery, This PC and BIOS share the top row. Laptops and
  tablets are unchanged.
• Windows Features is just the optional features. The Built-in apps list showed the same apps as Installed
  Software, which lists and uninstalls them, so it's gone.

v2.7.0.1

• Optional features' arrows work. Clicking an arrow showed the features under it only on the next click, and
  clicking another feature's arrow could hide or show the wrong ones; now each click opens or closes that feature
  straight away. The whole arrow square takes the click, not just the arrow's lines.

v2.7.0.0

• Optional features are a tree, grouped the way Windows' own "Turn Windows features on or off" shows them:
  Internet Information Services > World Wide Web Services > Application Development Features, .NET Framework 4.8
  Advanced Services > WCF Services, SMB 1.0/CIFS File Sharing Support > Client and Server, and so on. The list
  starts collapsed; the arrow beside a feature shows what's under it, and a parent says how many of those are on
  ("2 of 8 under it on").
• Filter and On only show each match with the features it sits under, opened, so it's clear where it
  belongs.
• Turn on says which features it sits under turn on with it, and Turn off lists the features under it that
  turn off too. Afterwards the list is read again, so every row shows what Windows did.
• Parts of a feature that Windows doesn't list by name (such as Sysmon-Service) are left out, as Windows leaves them
  out of its own dialog.
