What's new in InstantRescue Build 325

1. Fixed - The active (boot) partition of some computers has a Linux volume that is not recognized by Windows. In this case, there is no volume ID and the installation fails. The Installer now uses the native-mode pre-boot instead of failing.
2. Fixed - The automatic pre-boot fix reset the boot options (wait time, hot key, etc.).
3. Fixed - Snapshot Copy/Update would generate errors if folder renamed occured - causing the sort order to change.
4. Fixed - Issue where copy engine wouldn't exclude system restore data on Windows 10.
5. Fixed - Issue where OneDrive folder couldn't be data anchored.
6. Enhancement - Self-repair of pre-boot if Windows update overwrites our pre-boot code. 5 minutes after boot and once a day afterward, the Service checks the pre-boot. If the user has not explicitly disabled the pre-boot, the Service attempts to fix it. If the pre-boot is disabled, the tray icon changes to a warning and puts up a balloon message “Pre-boot is disabled”.
7. Enhancement - The copy progress dialog now shows the source and target snapshot names while indexing.
8. Fixed - Access Denied copy errors in Windows 10.
9. Pagefile.sys no longer removed from a new snapshot.

What's new in InstantRescue Build 321

1. Initialization now checks for default anchored files overlapping. For example, My Documents being in the OneDrive folder.
2. The Copy Engine reserved stack size has been doubled to 32MB.

What's new in InstantRescue Build 317

1. CopyEngine buffer size increased.
2. Fixed issue if Boot Splash Delay is configured for 1 second. Native-mode Pr-Boot would display "Press F1 for Boot Options in 4294967279 seconds".

What's new in InstantRescue Build 316

1. The folders for the following cloud-based applications are now automatically anchored at installation:
   1. Dropbox
   2. Google Drive
   3. Microsoft OneDrive
   4. Apple iCloud
      Only the default folder locations are anchored.
2. A new feature, Remove Rescue Area has been added. Ordinarily, there is no need to remove the Rescue Area. However, to force InstantRescue to recopy all the files, choose "Remove Rescue Area" from the menu.
3. When the Anchored File list includes a linked file (Junction, Symbolic or Hard) it causes the pre-boot to fail. The anchored file must be the actual name of the file. An error is now returned when anchoring a file or folder whose name includes a linked folder or file. If Windows supports it, the actual file name is shown in the error message.
4. An error is now generated if after a copy operation less than 20 GB will remain on the system volume. If the destination disk is not the system volume the check is only for sufficient disk space.
5. The IR icon now displayed in the Remove Programs list (Control Panel). It used to just be a default icon.
6. The Introduction screen for Data Anchoring has been changed to urge the user to anchor any cloud-based folders.
7. An error is now displayed if the keyboard fails in the native-mode pre-boot. Previously, it flashed by too quickly.
