How to Upgrade

[!] Important
[+] New
[-] Fixed error
[*] Changes

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Actual Window Menu 8.15.1 (27.04.2024)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[*] Mouse Drag and Scroll: The window dragging part of the "Make the entire
    window area responsive to dragging/sizing" feature has been reimplemented:
    now it works much more stable and smoother (no more unwanted title button
    activations, sizing instead of dragging, or sudden window jumps while
    dragging), and is compatible with most of the apps.

    The known issues: tabbed CMD/PowerShell/Notepad/Explorer windows in Win11,
    Actual Tools Tabbed Explorer windows.

[-] Windows 11 22H2+, Keyboard Modifier Keys: Any specified modifier key
    combination stopped being recognized after dragging out any tab in the
    system tabbed apps (File Explorer, Notepad, CMD/PowerShell). So the
    Actual Window Menu features based on those combinations stopped
    working as well.

[-] Windows 10+, Window Settings: In some cases, settings stopped being applied
    to Metro/UWP apps after restarting Actual Window Menu.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Actual Window Menu 8.15 (26.06.2023)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[!] Security: Now all Actual Tools runtime executables natively support
    the Data Execution Prevention (DEP) and Address Space Layout Randomization
    (ASLR) security technologies provided by the system. That hardens
    the overall system security by preventing various exploit attacks.

[*] Mouse Drag and Scroll: Now the "Make the entire window area responsive to
    dragging/sizing" feature is compatible with the Chromium-based apps:
    Google Chrome and other web browsers (Brave, Opera, Vivaldi,
    Yandex.Browser), Slack, WhatsApp, MS Teams, Upwork, Spotify, etc.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Actual Window Menu 8.14.7 (22.06.2022)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[!] Memory consumption and overall system load is slightly reduced.

[!] In some rare cases multi-window applications might crash silently after
    closing and re-opening a window of the same type (e.g. separate message
    window in email client).

[*] Compatibility is improved with custom cursors provided by Yolo Mouse.

[-] After exiting and then starting Actual Window Menu back,
    some features in some applications might work erratically.

[-] In multi-window applications memory leaked slightly after each cycle of
    closing a window and then opening two windows in a row.

[-] Excel 2007+ hung after closing some of its standard dialogs: Protect Sheet,
    Conditional Formatting, Chart Data, etc.

[-] Window Actions, Mouse: The support for windows with a non-standard
    window frame to intercept clicks on a title bar, sizeable border, and
    standard Minimize/Maximize/Close buttons to invoke assigned mouse actions,
    as well as to prevent accidental window closing, added in the previous
    version, did not work in systems before Windows 10.

[-] Window Actions: If a window was rolled up and then minimized, pausing
    or exiting Actual Window Menu did not restore window's original
    position and size.

[-] Configuration: The Send to Tech Support feature did not recognize
    Windows 11 marking the sent configurations as Win10-built.
  
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Actual Window Menu 8.14.6 (22.11.2021)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[!] Some internal components are made more concurrency-friendly by removing
    redundant locks and eliminating bottlenecks that might cause a noticeable
    system slowdown on multi-core CPUs in some scenarios.

[!] Internal consumption of memory and system resources is slightly reduced,
    some memory/resource leaks are fixed.

[+] Windows 10: Some improvements for UWP apps:

      - extra menu commands added by Actual Window Menu are finally
        available in the system window menu invoked by a title bar right click

      - mouse actions assigned to a title bar and standard title buttons
        now work as expected

      - the Quick Settings dialog now can be invoked by a title bar click
        (middle button by default)

[+] Window Actions, Mouse: The support is added for windows with a non-standard
    window frame to intercept clicks on a title bar, sizeable border, and
    standard Minimize/Maximize/Close buttons to invoke assigned mouse actions,
    as well as to prevent accidental window closing.

[+] Window Actions: Now the Freeze mode can be toggled via
    "Options > Stay always-on-top" submenu in window's system menu.

[*] Window Actions, Multiple Monitors: The Move to Monitor action now works
    more accurately in the "Keep aspect ratio" mode when moving a window between
    monitors with different both display and DPI resolutions (calculation of
    both the window location and size has been improved).

[*] Window Actions, Mouse: The "Maximize horizontally/vertically" mouse actions
    work again in a "toggle" manner (i.e. restore the previous window size on
    a second click).

[*] Window Actions: Smooth rolling up is improved.

[-] Window Settings, Windows 7+: Another proper specific settings did not apply
    to a File Explorer window with some specific settings already applied when
    its caption changed after switching to a certain folder and the Explorer
    option "Display the full path in the title bar" was on.

[-] Windows 11, Multiple Monitors, Window Actions: Applying the Move to Monitor
    action to maximized windows produced unwanted behavior and visual glitches.

    To prevent this, the "Enable compatibility mode for maximized windows"
    option now is enabled by default (see the "Window Settings > Global
    Options > Move to Monitor" panel).

[-] Window Actions: Some fixes and improvements for the Monitor Selector dialog:

      - in the "Move to" mode, the dialog closes after releasing the left
        mouse button only if some real movement can be made, otherwise
        the dialog stays active

      - in the "Move to" mode, dragging the window preview thumbnail is improved

      - now drawing is faster due to removing some redundant operations

      - in UWP apps, the dialog did not activate after being invoked

      - title bar did not scaled properly to a current DPI resolution

      - in some cases, visual glitches might appear when drawing active dots
        in the "Move to" mode

[-] Window Actions, Hotkeys: Applying any manual alignment to a window via extra
    window menu command broke the correct functioning of the Quick Alignment
    Numpad hotkeys.

[-] Window Actions: Applying a manual alignment with some horizontal
    or vertical position shift specified and then resizing the window by
    the Resize action did not retain the specified shift(s) making the window
    jump to a certain monitor border closely.

[-] Window Actions: The "Display current window position" feature
    did not activate when a window was being resized either by its top-right
    or bottom-left corner.

[-] Window Actions: Windows did not rolled up completely on a secondary monitor
    if its DPI resolution was less than primary's.
  
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Actual Window Menu 8.14.5 (12.02.2021)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[!] Windows 10 Insider x64 build 21277+: The program crashed at startup.

[+] Licensing: The evaluation period is prolonged by a third of its original
    duration for the update versions released after the Free Updates
    Subscription expiration date.

[-] An invalid memory operation could cause cascading errors in the Control
    Center at its startup if the "Collect usage statistics" option was enabled.

[-] Some application windows (e.g. Directory Opus) stopped reacting on
    Control Center commands (like pausing/resuming or modifying the settings).

[-] Window Actions: The Run Keyboard Macro action forced its target window
    remain foreground, which was inappropriate if a macro's purpose presumed
    another window activation (especially when the action was activated by
    any means other than "At Window Startup").

[-] Window Actions: Minimize-to-Screen floating icons placed at the right/bottom
    edge of a monitor might get out of sight after reducing the monitor's
    resolution.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Actual Window Menu 8.14.4 (10.10.2020)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[!] Internal security has been accurately revised and tightened to follow the
    principle of least privilege (in particular, for kernel objects used for
    inter-process communication).

[!] Internal error handling has been revised and improved for better
    interoperability with apps using .NET runtime (and probably some other
    frameworks).

[!] Internal handling of display-related information has been optimized to
    reduce the overall delay after changing the desktop geometry (i.e.
    attaching/detaching a monitor or changing a monitor resolution).

[-] In some rare cases some apps might get hung after reapplying their window
    settings or unloading Actual Window Menu.

[-] Mouse, Windows 7+ x64: If a 32-bit app that installs system-wide mouse hook
    was launched after Actual Window Menu then clicking the right mouse
    button in any 64-bit console app's window (Command Prompt, Power Shell,
    etc.) made ActualWindowMenuCenter.exe "run away", therefore hogging
    the CPU heavily.

[-] Mouse Drag and Scroll: Pale Moon got hung after activating an Adobe Flash
    element in a web page if the "Make the entire window area responsive to
    dragging/sizing" feature was enabled.

[-] Window Actions, Mouse: In some cases, "Maximize horizontally" or "Maximize
    vertically" mouse actions did not work as expected on their first call.

[-] Window Actions: Windows of Mozilla-based apps (Firefox, Thunderbird,
    Pale Moon, etc.) could not be stretched by a right click on their border.

[-] Window Actions: Windows of Mozilla-based apps (Firefox, Thunderbird,
    Pale Moon, etc.) could not be resized by dragging their right/bottom border
    if they were stretched or snapped to a right/bottom boundary of a monitor.

[-] Window Actions: The following bugs are fixed in the "Move to" helper dialog:

      - dialog was twice as large on monitors with higher DPI resolution

      - when dragging a window preview, you could not align it using the Aero
        Snap feature if the native Aero Snap was enabled in the system

      - when a green alignment dot was hovered by a mouse, the desktop preview
        window that shows the dot's corresponding target location was slightly
        bigger than required and so might go beyond monitor's visible area

[-] Window Actions: Minimize-to-Screen floating icon could be dragged just once
    if the "Use double click" option was set in the window settings.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Actual Window Menu 8.14.3 (27.12.2019)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[!] In some rare cases, running applications might crash randomly.

[!] Some applications (Adobe products, TechSmith products, Parametric
    Technologies products, and some others) got hung if two or more Actual Tools
    programs were running at once (exiting all but one Actual Tools programs
    made hung applications responsive back).

[-] Text on buttons in the Evaluation dialog was garbled in some Asian languages
    (Chinese, Japanese).
  
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Actual Window Menu 8.14.2 (29.10.2019)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[!] Numerous fixes of runtime internals to improve speed, robustness, and
    reliability.

[+] Ability to update an existing license key is added: see the "Enter new
    license key" item either in the "Tools - License" Configuration window panel
    or in the Actual Window Menu notification area icon's context menu.

[+] Window Actions: The ability is added to keep a window always behind others -
    see the "Stay at bottom" item in the "Options - Send to bottom" submenu of
    window's system menu.

[-] Windows Monitoring Log: The following bugs are fixed:

    - dragging an excluded window filled the log quickly with duplicate
      "New window" events

    - a "Caption changed" event was always followed by the duplicate
      "New window" event

    - the Log window itself did not appear in the log

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Actual Window Menu 8.14.1 (09.07.2019)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[!] Internal logic of global hook handlers is revised to improve the
    compatibility with the systems running on multi-core CPUs.

[-] Windows 10: Default icon was used for UWP apps right after their launch
    instead of their native icon.

[-] Window Actions: A maximized window got restored to its normal size after
    minimizing it to the notification area or to the screen and then restoring
    it either via its own notification area icon (Windows Live Mail, Microsoft
    Outlook) or via "Unhide" context menu.
  
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Actual Window Menu 8.14 (15.05.2019)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[!] Microsoft Office 2013+: Application windows got frozen for a long time
    (up to several minutes) after locking the user session and then unlocking
    it back.

[*] Configuration: Now configuration windows and dialogs correctly scale their
    content to a current DPI resolution, including on-the-fly scaling when
    dragging them between monitors with different DPI resolutions.

[-] Window Actions: Service window "Move to monitor" did not scale properly to
    a current DPI resolution.

[-] Window Actions: Minimize-to-Screen floating icons placed at the right/bottom
    edge of a monitor might get out of sight after reducing the monitor's
    resolution.

[-] Window Actions: After minimizing a window being snapped to left/right half
    of a monitor to notification area, the window lost its snapped state after
    restoration.

[-] Configuration: The "Copy settings from" command stopped working.

    resources when Actual Window Menu was running.

[!] Window Settings: Exclusions stopped working since the version 8.13.

[*] Configuration: Specific Settings editing windows now are truly independent
    of the main Configuration window:

    - clicking the Apply button in such window now immediately saves the changes
      (no need to click Apply in the main window as well)

    - after closing the main window these windows remain fully functional

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Actual Window Menu 8.13.2 (12.10.2018)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[!] Windows Vista/7: Process dwm.exe crashed each time after unloading

    wheel did not work in active windows of some applications (e.g. Mozilla
    Firefox and Google Chrome web browsers).

[-] Configuration: In really high DPI resolutions (> 200%), caption of a first
    option in each group overlapped the group's title.
  
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

    with a different DPI resolution, the window got beyond the visible desktop
    area.

[-] Minimize-to-screen: Permanent floating screen icons intercepted the input
    focus when clicked (i.e. became an active foreground window) and "ate" fast
    second clicks if the single click activation mode was enabled.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[!] Windows x64: The speed of advanced mouse features is greatly improved,
    especially on systems with multi-core CPUs (with 8+ real cores).

[+] Windows 10: Now you can create specific window settings for Metro (UWP) apps

    added:

    - Show the "Move to specific monitor" dialog      (Win-Ctrl-/)
    - Show the "Maximize to selected monitors" dialog (Win-Ctrl-Num*)

    You can change the default key combinations in the Hotkeys-Actions panel.

    This feature can be useful on monitors with high resolutions (up to 4K)
    where distance to a required window title bar may be too long to drag
    the mouse there just to invoke the dialog via right click. Using the hotkeys
    above will make the dialogs appear exactly under the mouse pointer,
    ready for immediate use.

[+] The CFL command line switch is expanded with the ability to specify
    an arbitrary folder where the configuration files should be stored:

    ActualWindowMenuCenter.exe CFL "<full_path_to_the_folder>"

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[*] Configuration: Navigation pages now display a tooltip with the full caption
    text over their header if the caption text does not fit the header visible
    area.

[-] Configuration: With large interface font size (either set manually in the
    User Interface settings or generated automatically because of a high
    screen DPI resolution), navigation page captions did not fit the headers.
  
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Actual Window Menu 8.8.1 (29.04.2016)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[!] Windows 10: False-positive SmartScreen warning about setup file corruption
    is finally remedied.

    the Window Settings navigation tree. Now, you can edit certain
    Specific Window settings item in a separate window that can be opened
    in the following ways:

    - double click the required item in the Specific Settings list

    - select the required item in the Specific Settings list and press Enter

    - use the Edit Window Rule command in either the toolbar or the context menu
      of the Specific Settings list

    Known issues (subject to fix in the future updates):

    1) the multi-editing of several specific settings does now work as before

    2) there is no way to adjust the natural order of specific settings

[!] Configuration: Global Options subitems have been removed from
    the Window Settings navigation tree and transformed into tabs of the Global
    Options detail panel.

[+] Configuration: Back/Forward buttons have been added into each Configuration
    window to provide the navigation through the user interface panels like in
    web browsers.

[+] Configuration: Incremental Search box has been added into each Configuration
    window. Now you can quickly discover a panel that contains the required
    option just by typing several letters of what you want to find.

    Search engine considers the following text information:

    1) captions of user interface panels and all their sub-controls (control
       hints are ignored at the moment for the sake of search speed)

    2) captions of built-in and user-added objects of the following types:

       - specific window settings
       - window exclusions
       - hotkeys
       - mouse actions
       - Start Program shortcuts
       - window menu commands

    from the Options category to the Window Settings category in the main
    Configuration window.

[+] Configuration: Ability is added to select all items in the lists with
    multi-selection allowed by pressing the Ctrl-A hotkey. As this key
    combination was reserved for adding a new item to a list, the New Item
    hotkey has been changed to Ctrl-N.

[*] Configuration: Hotkey combinations for list operations have been unified
    for all list-editing panels:

    Ins, Ctrl-N       - add new item
    Del, Ctrl-D       - delete selected item
    F5                - copy selected item
    Ctrl-=, Ctrl-Num+ - enable all items (where available)
    Ctrl--, Ctrl-Num- - disable all items (where available)
    Ctrl-A            - select all items (where available)

[*] Configuration: Confirmation request for the Delete Item operation has been
    removed in all list-editing panels. If you accidentally removed the needed
    item - you can click the Undo button in the bottom-left corner of the main
    Configuration window or press the Undo hotkey (Ctrl-Z by default).

[*] Configuration: The flickering has been reduced significantly when resizing
    either the Configuration windows themselves or their internals.

[*] Windows 10: Hotkeys now work in Metro apps.

[*] Configuration: Separate Window Settings windows now retain their position
    and size when you open them again.

[-] Installer: The uninstaller popped up interactive dialog requests even if it
    had been launched with /SILENT or /VERYSILENT command line option.

[-] Configuration: Minimized windows did not restore on clicking
    the notification area icon or pressing the Configure hotkey.

    ActualWindowMenuCenter.exe resume

[+] Now you can launch another instance of the program using middle click on
    a Minimize-to-Screen floating icon.

[*] If Actual Window Menu was installed into a trusted location (such as
    "Program Files" folder) using administrative privileges and then used under
    non-privileged user account, Actual Window Menu update installer now
    warns that it must be run as administrator to update the installation in
    a trusted location.

[-] Dragging of Minimize-to-Screen floating icons stopped working.
  
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Actual Window Menu 8.5.3 (19.09.2015)

    simultaneously. There is no limit on the number of computers the program
    can be installed on and registered with the same registration code as long
    as the number of simultaneous users is less than or equal to the number of
    purchased copies. For more information, please refer to the license.txt
    document in the program's installation folder or visit this page.

[!] Beginning from the version 8.0, the Upgrade Policy changes: now purchasing
    the registration code grants you the Free Upgrades Subscription for a

    new versions of the program for free. After this period expires, you will
    have to purchase another registration code to prolong the Free Upgrades
    Subscription (in case you want to do so). Otherwise, you can continue to
    use the last actual version of the program, it will remain registered
    and fully functional.

      both Classic Snap and Aero Snap features are active

      itself and on the desktop

    Otherwise, please keep it enabled for a sufficient time (at least several
    days) to let Actual Window Menu collect enough statistical data. Then,
