# Explorer Patcher Changelog
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This document includes the same release notes as in the [Releases](https://github.com/valinet/ExplorerPatcher/releases) section on GitHub.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## 22000.168.0.6
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Fixes [#5](https://github.com/valinet/ExplorerPatcher/issues/5) (removes the delay at logon on newer builds like 22000.168; the bug is similar to the effect introduced by `UndockingDisabled` on these newer builds).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## 22000.1.0.5
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Offsets are now determined at runtime
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The application was tested on builds 22000.1 and 22000.168.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Library downloads and parses symbols in order to determine
|
||
|
|
function hooking offsets at runtime and saves the data in a
|
||
|
|
"settings.ini" file located in the application folder for future
|
||
|
|
use; the file is invalidated when a new OS build is detected
|
||
|
|
- The main executable attempts to determine the location where a
|
||
|
|
jump has to be patched out so that Explorer remains on the 'show
|
||
|
|
old taskbar' code path; it will systematically patch each jz/jnz
|
||
|
|
instruction and will check whether Explorer still runs fine, and,
|
||
|
|
if it does so and does not crash, whether the old taskbar got
|
||
|
|
actually shown; once the offset is determined, it is saved in the
|
||
|
|
"settings.ini" file for future use
|
||
|
|
- Please have an unmetered active working Internet connection when
|
||
|
|
running for the first time
|
||
|
|
- Messages from the patcher (i.e. install/uninstall successful
|
||
|
|
message, symbol downloading message) will now display in a toast
|
||
|
|
(Windows 10 notification) if possible; when Explorer is not
|
||
|
|
running, it falls back to using standard MessageBox'es
|
||
|
|
- Disabled the pre/post build command that restarted sihost.exe in
|
||
|
|
Debug builds
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## 22000.1.0.4
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
New in this release
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Win+X combination is now handled and opens the power user menu
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Of note from previous releases:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Start menu is now displayed on monitor containing the cursor when invoked with the Windows key if the appropriate configuration is made into the registry (enables a functionality which was previously available in Windows 8.1). To activate this, follow this tutorial: https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/5943-start-menu-open-main-last-display-windows-10-a.html
|
||
|
|
- The power user menu (Win+X) is now skinned using the system theme, as it was in Windows 10
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
