v23.50.0012 - 2022-08-14 16:14
  !!! Thumbnails Cache: The cache would not work if Unicode characters were in the cache 
      path (not the cached path!), and that could even result in a crash on start up. 
      Shocking flaw!
      To make it work I had to completely rewrite the data file structure. The old DAT2 
      files were binary files and not human readable. The new INI files have the classic 
      INI-file format, are fully Unicode compliant, and can be visually checked easily and 
      even manually edited (though that needs some knowledge and is not really necessary 
      unless you are very bored).
      The old DAT2 files are still read (so in theory the transition should be smooth), 
      and then killed and replaced by the new INI files whenever the cache is updated. 
      After a while all DAT2 files should be gone.

v23.70.0207 - 2022-11-05 10:47
    ! Floating Preview: Some inconsistencies with "Zoom to Fit" enabled. Fixed.
    ! Image and Video Preview: Undid that change from v23.70.0206. It brought new 
      problems.
      Since these problems differ with each Windows version and configuration (installed 
      preview handlers) each user has to find the setting that suits him best. These are 
      the 3 options, available as one-line scripts that can be run through the XYplorer 
      address bar:
        tweak("PreviewEarlyFactory", 0); //early factory for pdf, ttf, webp, for videos,
                                         //and for shell folder thumbnails (= XY Factory Default)
        tweak("PreviewEarlyFactory", 1); //early factory for all file types
        tweak("PreviewEarlyFactory", 2); //early factory for no file types
      To find out the current setting do this and look at the status bar:
        tweak("PreviewEarlyFactory");
      FYI, "factory" refers to the IShellItemImageFactory interface (from Vista onwards). 
      "Early factory" means: try the factory first, then fall back to other methods.

v23.80.0207 - 2022-12-15 10:57
    + Time-Stamping: Time-stamping a file now ensures that the archive bit is set in that 
      file.
    * Thumbnails: The old DAT2 files (out of business since v23.50.0012 - 2022-08-14 
      16:14, but still supported till v23.80.0205 - 2022-12-13 18:55) are not compatible 
      anymore with the new internal thumbnails structures introduced with v23.80.0206 - 
      2022-12-14 16:10, and the support ends here.
      If you want to migrate old DAT2 thumbnails caches you can use a version from 
      v23.50.0012 to v23.80.0205 to convert DAT2 to the now used INI format.
