Change Log for the latest
XYplorer BETA version:
Code: Select all
v14.80.0217 - 2015-01-28 14:42
+ Timestamp Tolerance: Because of the difference in timestamp precision
between NTFS (used by XP and later) and FAT32 (used on many USB drives and
Windows 95, 98, ME, 2K) of up to 2 seconds, XYplorer now tolerates a
difference of 2 seconds when comparing timestamps.
Note that the tolerance is also in effect when comparing files on NTFS
systems only, since by copying back and forth between NTFS and FAT32 the
imprecision can be propagated to NTFS.
This change affects Sync Select and Custom Copy / Backup operations where
overwriting is based on timestamp comparison. Where it makes a change it
should lead to a notable reduction of superfluous overwrite operations.
The value can be tweaked:
TimestampToleranceSecs=2
! Filetimes: DST (daylight saving time) was not honored as expected.
For example, the created time of a file that had been created at 18:00 in
summer (when DST was in effect), was shown in winter (when DST was not in
effect) as being created at 17:00. While 17:00 is the astronomically (more
or less) correct time it is Windows standard (and also user-friendlier) to
show the fake time that was valid in the moment the file was created (DST
in effect).
XYplorer now handles this just like Windows Explorer.
XP and later only.
! Custom Copy: Handling mount points did not work yet for subfolders of
mount points. Fixed.
* XYcopy: Updated to 2.10.0065.
To
download the latest BETA version choose a download package: (1)
Installer Package, (2)
No-Install Package.
Note that BETA versions are work in progress and might contain fresh bugs. You have been warned.
It's a good idea to backup your complete XYplorer settings (menu File | Settings Special | Backup Application Data Folder...)
before running a new BETA version. This will also help in fixing any fresh bugs.
