Fixed an issue in dUninstaller (KillEmAll) where programs installed without anything listed for an "App Publisher" were not matching either whitelist or blacklist definitions that should have matched. This issue could be noticed with the more recent "Microsoft Edge Update" for example, which contains no App Publisher entry. Some apps and functions were being launched behind the main d7x window; hopefully this issue has been resolved across the board, although there may be a few...
d7x - Fixed not displaying internal function info when right-clicking on a d7x function and selecting "Configure App/Function" from the drop down list. d7x and dSupportSuite - Fixed (hopefully for good) an issue with Windows Defender scans failing by adjusting to allow for more time between the update process and the actual scan.
Update v21.1.17 - Increased delete speed by restructuring redundant code. Update v21.1.16.3 - Fixed a recent issue with Deleting Temp Files potentially locking up d7x. Fixed an issue preventing custom apps from saving their configurations after a the app runs (when configured, e.g. CCleaner.) Also a d7x "Under the Hood" video was just released on what exactly that feature does (that was fixed.) Watch "d7x Custom Configurations (CCleaner)" if you want to learn about how...
Fixed a recent issue with Delete Temp Files routines (taking way too long to delete files that are in-use and cannot be unlocked, and also showing a manual delete failure prompt that should never be shown during automated deletions.) Fixed a recent bug with the "Prevent System Sleep Mode" feature.

Improved "Extensions - Action\Command Prompt Here" shell extension (right-click on any file or directory) to run CMD.EXE as Administrator or TrustedInstaller, while still automagically changing to either that directory or the current path of that file you right-clicked on. New behavior is that if you click on a directory, it opens in that directory not in the parent directory (as it would be forced to do for a file.) Improved "Extensions\Search Registry" shell extension (right-click...
Performed a lot of work to improve deleting stubborn files/directories and registry keys/values in various functions, part of which has to do with the next item. Vastly improved internal d7x functionality to take ownership of files and registry keys/values, and taking ownership of files and registry keys/values. Updated "Extensions - Action\Take Ownership/Permissions" shell extension to use faster internal d7x functionality before resorting to subinacl.exe. Replaced all functionality involving (the d7II based) FileHandler.exe with internal d7x.exe...
Updated KillEmAll to fix issues with not recognizing when it actually terminated a process. KillEmAll no longer attempts (and fails) to terminate a few Windows Defender processes. Several other minor issues under the hood were addressed.
More new tweaks, making over 40 tweaks added for Windows 10 in the December, 2020 updates. Most notable additions with this release involve the Taskbar icons for Cortana, Task View, and the Search Box/Icon. System Info tab (top-ish center, just below "Last d7x Run:") now displays the last maintenance ran by dSupportSuite if it has ever been ran by an installed version of dSupportSuite; hovering your mouse over it will show you the installed version...
