• New feature: The scan progress screen now shows the path currently being analyzed. This feature can also be disabled from Settings.
• New feature: The list of installed apps can now be saved also to a file in TXT file format. Previously only a more basic CSV data save was available.
• New feature: Added an option to create a System Restore Point only once per session. This will prevent multiple new System Restore Point being automatically created if you uninstall many apps one by one.
• Starting the uninstallation process with the default setting now better hides the normal Windows Desktop.
• Improved the detection of shortcuts of installed apps.
• The list of selected apps is now more clearly indicated in the user interface.
• Steam game information is now detected with better accuracy, including the installation size and the icon.
• Improved the "Jump to software" UI in the Show Data / Uninstall view.
• The program can now better detect the correct icon of installed apps.
• If the "Automatically reboot computer" option is disabled but "Automatically close running programs" option is enabled, the program will now restart the Windows user interface after the uninstallation is completed to make it easier to continue the normal use of the computer.
• If the program is running in portable mode from a USB drive, the settings will be saved to the USB drive instead of the system temporary directory.
• If the program is being run on a system with a small screen (1920x1080 or smaller), the program will start maximized by default.
• The installed app names are now more uniform. For example, if you have Microsoft Visual Studio installed, it comes with many components such as "Microsoft Visual Studio Installer" but the main program is officially listed as "Visual Studio", which is confusing. From now on, Uninstalr attempts to automatically unify the program names in such cases, and display "Visual Studio" as "Microsoft Visual Studio".
• It is no longer possible to move the window if it is maximized.
• The currently scanned path is now wrapped, so it is fully visible. Previously long paths would be simply cut.
• The program no longer analyses any network drives.
