Added

  • A short welcome on first start explains what Secblitz does and asks before it checks your PC.
  • A new Help tab in Settings answers common questions.
  • You can save a support file to attach to a problem report; it never includes your files, your user name or the websites you visit.
  • When Web protection blocks a dangerous or scam site, a warning appears over your browser so you can go back or open the site just once.
  • An accessibility statement explains what already works with the keyboard and what does not yet.
  • Each release now comes with a list of the code it is built from.
  • The README now lists which versions of Windows are supported and which have been tested.

Changed

  • Secblitz no longer checks your PC by itself the first time it opens.
  • Details and dialogs now show one short line per point, and you can open a point to read more.
  • Every switch, tab and menu works with the keyboard, and Tab stays inside an open dialog.
  • Background checks chosen during installation now start right away instead of after a restart.
  • Blocking dangerous sites now also covers sites that spread harmful downloads or apps that secretly spy on people.
  • The roadmap is now a short, plain list of what is planned.

Removed

  • The Tools page no longer offers app updates; Windows updates and repair are still there.

Fixed

  • If you remove Secblitz and keep your PC as it is, Secblitz now warns you when a removed app could not be brought back.
  • Removing Secblitz while a check is running now waits for the check, so nothing is left out of what it puts back.
  • On a small screen with larger text, the Secblitz window no longer opens partly behind the taskbar.
  • Typing in the Protection search box no longer stops after the first letter.
  • On Windows Home, the drive encryption steps no longer point you to BitLocker, which Home does not have.
  • Removing Secblitz from Windows Settings no longer claims that every removed app can come back from the Microsoft Store.
  • An app removed the day before now shows as removed "yesterday", not "today".
