[== NOTE ==]  Aside from emergency fixes, this will be the last version of RightFolder developed exclusively for Windows, and without advertising. Work is commencing on a cross-platform version of RightFolder, and it will contain advertising (unless donations increase exponentially). The new version will have additional image support and other handy features like full-screen video previewing and multi-view video previewing. If you’re on Windows, you can continue to use the ad-free version, or you can put up with ads to get all the newer features. Your choice.

[1.0.18.0]  1) Fixed a regression: The Conflict Resolution Dialog was displaying GIF images incorrectly. 2) The Conflict Resolution Dialog now uses VLC to play audio files. If the two audio tracks are the same, the audio will sync together (or nearly so). If not, the discord will make it obvious the two tracks are not the same.

[1.0.17.0]  1) Any supported image type can now be used as a backdrop during music playback (including WebP images, animated or otherwise). 2) RightFolder now remembers the name of the last playlist you created (during the current session only), making it easier to keep appending to one. 3) Prior to this, the user was provided with the opportunity to attempt to undo the deletion of a file or folder that they originally deleted permanently (without the Recycle Bin). This attempt would result in an error. Removed such operations from the Undo dialog. 4) Reworked the deletion routine. If the user un-checks “Use Recycle Bin for Deletions”, but checks “Confirm deletions”, they will now be given a “Yes to All” option to skip the confirmation prompt for all remaining deletions. (Note that any files the user opted to keep up to that point are still kept - “Yes to All” only deletes any other files marked for deletion.) Also, using these settings, RightFolder now previews every file being deleted, as the user is moving through them, as a safety measure. 5) Made file transport errors a little more robust. (There are still some file operation failures that Windows isn't reporting correctly, or perhaps the third-party code we use. Sometimes, the best we can do is abort the process and just say “Hey, something went wrong...”) 6) Added a menu option for deleting files and folders. Prior to this, you had to use the Delete key or click a button. 7) The app was not honoring the “Maintain a log of file operations” setting. If you disable this feature, you may need to manually delete previously created history log files. See https://rightfolder.site/Support/RightFolder/Help/#backup for more. 7) Pressing the Return key on a video (in the main folder list) would (correctly) launch VLC to display the chosen video, but RightFolder wouldn't kill VLC internally. (i.e., the video would keep playing in RightFolder while VLC was also externally displaying the video.)

[1.0.16.0]  1) Fixed a regression: The background for the text previewer was failing to show the preferred “dark goldenrod” color. (Side note: The M3U extension is for playlists, and is a text file. If you create that extension in RightFolder, mark it as a Text file if you want it to display with this colored background. If you mark it as Default, it will display with the standard window background. This is true for all text extensions, just in case you REALLY hate that color (but note that the Default previewer does NOT give you the text encoding options that the Text previewer does). The upcoming cross-platform version of RightFolder will give you more options for picking your own colors.) 2) Improved the background folder size calculator algorithm to be more robust. (Not more accurate, just more responsive to what folder you’re sitting on.) 3) Now removes double- or single-quotes from around a playlist name in the playlist selector dialog (added by Delphi or Windows). Surrounding quotes are extraneous, and Windows won’t allow the playlist name to include them.

[1.0.15.0]  1) Can now preview very large text files without effort (and we removed the option to limit files greater than 10MB). Large files (including JSON files) shouldn’t hang the app anymore. 2) Fixed the glitchy Cancel button responsiveness in the progress bar dialog. File transports can now be reliably canceled (although any individual file move / copy in progress will be completed in order to keep some atomicity). 3) The image snapshot process that is used to show video frames during a video copy/move conflict (in the Conflict Resolution Dialog) has been replaced by actual live video preview windows. 4) Folder names that contained ampersands (“&”) were not displaying properly. Fixed this (although this may fail for other languages, fonts, character sets). We have not done any localization coding or testing. 5) Files don’t open twice anymore when you press the Enter key.

[1.0.14.0]  1) Added the ability to create playlists with relative paths (in addition to absolute paths), 2) added a video snapshot preview to the Conflict Resolution Dialog (during file transports) to help you determine if two videos are the same, 3) added a way to change the text encoding scheme while viewing a text file (UTF-8 Unicode, UTF-16 Unicode, etc), 4) improved the progress dialog during file transport (including a way to cancel the operation), bug fixes

[1.0.13.0]  1) Made the app fully free (no restrictions), 2) added an “Items checked” number field that will always show you how many items you have checked in the main file list, 3) hardened the app to prevent cloud backup related sync error messages, 4) improved PCX support, 5) improved WebP support (now includes animation), 6) removed the image auto-rename feature (but it still warns you on wrong image extensions), 7) the Quick Start Guide now opens as a standalone web page, 8) the app now displays a visible caret in the column header (showing sort order) while in dark mode, and 9) removed the splash screen.

[1.0.12.0]  Various minor bug fixes

[1.0.11.0]  1) Made it easier to see which files you have selected while in dark mode. 2) Now using a lighter blue background. 3) Fixed a problem while previewing an SVG file with a transparent background and black text or imagery. The black text or imagery would be hard to see against the slate-gray background, so we now display the standard "goldenrod" color behind such images. Note that there is an issue with the "caret" not being visible in the column header while in dark mode (making it harder to tell whether the column is sorted in ascending or descending order), but the component developer has marked this as a needed fix in their next release. We will incorporate this fix as soon as it's available

[1.0.10.0]  1) Added "undo" and dark mode functionality. 2) Changed the app model from "trialware" (2 week free trial) to "freemium".

[1.0.9.0]  A couple more bug fixes.

[1.0.8.0]  You can now keep the main Help dialog open while you use the app. However, due to a Windows limitation, you cannot move it behind the main form. (If you have more than one monitor, you can place the Help dialog on a separate monitor. Or you can just shrink the dialog so it doesn't obscure as much of the main form, or pin the app and Help dialog on opposite sides of the screen.) Also, more bug fixes.

[1.0.7.0]  A critical bug fix.

[1.0.6.0]  Many bug fixes. Now utilize EurekaLog for error reporting.

[1.0.5.0]  Added the ability to export M3U single- or multi-folder playlists.

[1.0.4.0]  Reworded the dialog leading into the registration dialog

[1.0.3.0]  Removed Adobe Acrobat ActiveX DLL plug-in support. (PDF viewing now exclusively implemented using default 3rd party previewer.)

[1.0.2.0]  Bug fixes.

[1.0.1.0]  Now with a vastly improved dialog for adding and removing extensions!
