12.10.10 Fixed: Moving selected folders+files to their parent (drag to [..]) could overwrite files, e.g. when a subdir contains files with same name -> move this subdir at the very end (see http://www.hardtoc.com/archives/198)
12.10.10 Fixed: Windows 7 no longer showed overlay icons for shared folders -> show our own if there is no other overlay for that folder!

08.10.10 Fixed: Could not use "auto-rename target" if the target file was the same as its DOS name, e.g. testit~1.txt -> infinite loop trying to find alternate name
08.10.10 Fixed: Various crashes, e.g. avoid recursive calls of sorting function
07.10.10 Fixed: Various crashes
06.10.10 Fixed: User-defined hotkeys with Alt+Windows key were not working correctly
05.10.10 Fixed: No thousands delimiters were shown in copy progress dialog (transfer speed)
05.10.10 Fixed: Directory hotlist: cd ftp://user:pass@server.com/path/ didn't work if the user name or password contained an asterisk (*) character (make sure the path ends with a slash to make it work)
05.10.10 Fixed: Regular expressions, Unicode (e.g. in multi-rename tool): Disallow pattern ^?? because it causes a crash (replace by ^? as for ANSI regex searches)
01.10.10 Fixed: Drag&Drop from search->feed to listbox not working on network shares. Now it should work when all selected files are on the same share (\\server\share)
30.09.10 Fixed: Don't check for shield overlay icon on UNC paths because it seems to be very slow
30.09.10 Fixed: File lists: Cache per file icons again, so they show up immediately when they were shown before, but always reload them in the background thread
30.09.10 Fixed: Lister didn't support case-insensitive backwards search in UTF-8 files
30.09.10 Fixed: Start editing comment (Ctrl+Z) while background packing of TGZ archive active, save comment (F2) -> access violation (only occurs when 'watch directory changes' is off)

28.09.10 Fixed: FTP: User had to re-enter server password (instead of master password) after closing TC with ftp connection on different tab, when this tab was locked with directory changes allowed
28.09.10 Fixed: Create CRC checksums, give name of existing directory as target file name -> Error that controls were deleted in background thread
28.09.10 Fixed: Windows Vista/7: Do not follow junctions (reparse points) located on network drives when the target drive differs, because the stored target is an absolute path, so the redirection would go to a local directory
28.09.10 Fixed: RAR packer: -sfx was passed twice to the packer when creating self-extracting archives
28.09.10 Fixed: Verify CRC checksums: Could not abort verification while no files were found to be checked, e.g. because the crc file was moved to a different directory

27.09.10 Fixed: Configuration - Change button bar: Icons appeared on multiple lines when using high dpi settings (e.g. 175 dpi)
27.09.10 Fixed: Delete directories, one of them is locked because it's the current dir in another program -> user closes program, clicks "retry" -> only that directory is deleted, but the delete operation stops
27.09.10 Fixed: Also ignore trailing spaces in XXE-Encoded files
27.09.10 Fixed: Select files (Num+"+"): Function couldn't handle selection by size properly for files > 2GB

26.09.10 Fixed: Handle faulty ftp servers which return Unix file listing in reply to MLSD command (instead of MLSD format)

02.07.10 Fixed: Load per file icons (e.g. exe/lnk) always in background, not only on first load (should make network drives more responsive)
02.07.10 Fixed: When deleting files as admin from system32 while x64DisableRedirection=1, redirect calls to tcmadmin to SysNative (will work on XP64 only when installing Microsoft patch)

27.06.10 Fixed: TAR archives: Unpack files with long name stored in pax (portable archive interchange) format extended header (see The Open Group Base Specifications Issue 6, IEEE Std 1003.1, 2004 Edition)
27.06.10 Fixed: Send OPTS MLST command when server doesn't send all fields by default (e.g. UNIX.mode)

27.06.10 Fixed: Synchronize dirs with files which differ only in case: Re-alignment stopped after the first matching file
27.06.10 Added: Allow user to choose whether Ctrl+C should use Explorer extensions or not (default is no, it's much faster): wincmd.ini [Configuration] UseFastCtrlC=1/0  (Set to 0 to use Explorer extensions)

25.06.10 Added: Synchronize dirs with files which differ only in case: show slashed circle for files which will not be synchronized

15.06.10 Added: Call network connect function with CONNECT_PROMPT option to prompt for user name: wincmd.ini [Configuration] PromptForUser=1

13.06.10 Added: "cd" command in button bar and user menu: When parameter /user: is added without giving a user name, call connect function with CONNECT_PROMPT option to prompt for user name
13.06.10 Fixed: Look for key file also under %LOCALAPPDATA%\VirtualStore on Windows Vista/7 if TC is installed in "Program files" dir (reason: some older mail programs may store the key there!)

31.05.10 Added: Synchronize dirs with FTP when files with same name but different case exist, e.g. index.htm + INDEX.HTM -> just show these files in red and ignore them (can be viewed or deleted)
31.05.10 Fixed: Synchronize dirs: No subdirectory headers were shown when using "Only selected" with some selected dirs, but "Recurse subdirs" turned off (which compares files in these dirs, but not their subdirs)

21.05.10 Fixed: Synchronize dirs: Main window could become accessible when synchronizing via port connection

30.06.09 Fixed: Lister, Hex search with OEM(DOS) font: Convert to OEM charset before converting hex to chars, otherwise the wrong text is found
30.06.09 Fixed: Unpacking subdirs from a subdir in a RAR archive no longer worked when using external RAR unpacker (note that this function doesn't support Unicode)

05.06.09  Fixed: When unloading a control, put released object instance at the end of the free list so it's re-used last (to increase stability)
