UPDATE: this issue has been resolved in d7x v22.8.9 and Tweaky v22.8.5.2. Currently there is an issue with the “Set Time Zone” feature of both d7x and Tweaky on the latest builds of Windows 11, causing Explorer.exe to constantly restart (even after reboot.) The easy (and currently the only known) fix is to use System Restore. Please do not use this feature on Windows 11 until we can resolve the issue. We’ll make another post […]
It appears that d7x was not applying hidden file and file extension preferences properly during End Session under some circumstances, which should now be fixed. Also, an issue not yet resolved: it seems that d7x’s ability to refresh the desktop to show these file changes is not working in the latest build of Windows 10, and as of yet there is no resolution. As a result, when starting d7x for the first time (or after […]
Added Microsoft OneDrive integration for d7x Reports storage (see the d7x Config > Reports > OneDrive Integration tab.) Please see the manual (at the link above) for all considerations prior to using this functionality. OneDrive integration was added as a convenience to those who would rather use it over Google Drive, but we would like to recommend that most people should consider Google Drive integration instead, for several reasons (particularly if you have multiple technicians […]
Added a user requested option to change the Info Report type (full/no passwords/minimal) when automatically generating an Info Report during session startup (on the d7x Config > Session > Start Session tab.) Split the d7x Config setting to “Show Hidden/SuperHidden Files” into two separate settings “Show Hidden Files” and “Also Show Hidden System Files” under the Behavior/Updates tab > Startup Behavior. The two new settings (until configured otherwise) will use the previously combined config setting. […]
A new ‘d7x Release Notes (RSS)‘ window will display the d7xTech blog RSS feed (specifically for d7x Release Notes) complete with a one-click topic search for any available tags. The window will appear after a d7x update, or you may view it anytime by clicking the ‘Help‘ dropdown menu. on 2022/01/12 d7xDesktopInfo.exe was updated to remove CD-ROMs from the drive space output (duh, CD-ROMs are always 0 GB free.)
Added new d7x feature to show system info on the Windows 10/11 desktop. This is similar to Sysinternals BGInfo.exe (but built-in to d7x) or O&O DeskInfo (but portable!), and with some optional nifty background effects for the wallpaper. .\d7x Resources\d7xDesktopInfo.exe is also a portable application which you can use independently of d7x! Additional configuration and more information for this feature is available, see the d7xDesktopInfo page in the d7x Manual here. CONTACT US to request […]
Happy New Year! An issue exists when switching d7x configs through Config Mgmt Portal where certain existing config items are “bleeding in” to the newly adopted config. The related code has been tweaked with this release, but hasn’t been *fixed* 100%, but this is because … … some bleed is desirable, so you don’t have to perform certain elements of configuration over and over again on new configs (e.g. re-copy backup/source logo files to the […]
Added Google Drive integration for Custom Apps, so that now you can store your custom app zip/exe files to a path on Google Drive. Specify filename only in the “Google Drive Filename” field in your Custom App config; you can set the Drive path (where the custom apps are stored) on the Config > Apps/Functions tab > Google Drive Integration tab. By default this is “d7x Files\3rd Party Tools”. Any time a Google Drive filename […]
Added additional Google Drive integrations: You can now replace dCloud (and self-hosted FTP usage) for configuration/definitions storage with Google Drive. Visit d7x Config > Servers/Email > Google Drive Integration to enable. This means your Config Mgmt Portal will use Google Drive, and any other configs you have previously uploaded to dCloud or your self-hosted FTP will not be present. I apologize but there is no direct copy/import process to change servers, so if you are […]
Added Google Drive integration for uploading d7x reports. See the d7x Config > Reports > Google Drive Integration tab for configuration. Also see the video below for a walk-through. Added Upload Reports to Google Drive (and to FTP) to the list of d7x functions which can be added to a custom app list or passed to d7x in scripting, so now you can do it automatically if you wish at any time prior to End […]
