16.5.2
CE-Deploy 16.5.2
16.5.2 reduces idle rendering and improves Pre-flight feedback, xAPI Forge samples, and everyday reliability.
Highlights
- Lower idle CPU usage: Beacon, feature NEW badges, the deployment-ready badge, Macro Factory’s unread Drift marker and the dashboard LIVE dot stay still. Guidance, status, refresh timestamps and badge dismissal continue to work. Results vary by system and workload.
- Clearer Pre-flight progress: cloud and on-premise buttons stop spinning when checks finish. The button stays disabled while you review results, then becomes available when you return.
- More reliable Forge samples: online catalogue, manifest and script downloads use your configured proxy and TLS settings. If the catalogue cannot load, Forge shows Samples unavailable and keeps local editing available. Reopen Forge to retry.
Reliability and security
- Corrected embedded Chromium certificate validation for trusted incomplete chains while retaining native trust checks and compromised-key blocking.
- Prevented concurrent Windows CLI helpers from emitting a native cache diagnostic before structured JSON output.
- Fixed saved Phonebook Load/Delete picker transitions and ignored repeated selections while closing.
- Updated HTTP redirect protection and compatible build/development dependencies. Certificate verification remains enabled.
Installation and upgrade
Use the packages in Assets:
- macOS: signed and notarized universal DMG/ZIP for Apple Silicon and Intel; requires macOS 13 Ventura or later.
- Windows: x64 installer or portable executable for supported Windows systems. Windows builds are unsigned; SmartScreen or your organization’s application-control policy may require administrator approval. Windows ARM and 32-bit packages are not supplied.
Reopen the highlights through Settings → About → What’s New. In Docs, see Beacon, Pre-flight Checks, xAPI Forge, Dashboard, Macro Factory and Phonebook Manager for the changed workflows. Documentation and training are also available on the website.
