Boot Editor Changelog

What's new in Boot Editor 1.0.1

Dec 4, 2012
  • Full Support for bitmaps #4 - "Progress bar (Other)", #12 - "Overlay (Embedded)", #13 - "Overlay (Server Family)", #16 - "Overlay (.net)", #17 - "Overlay (Tablet PC Edition)" and #18 - "Overlay (Media Center Edition)".
  • Relative options at Main screen and at dialog "Make a new Boot exe file"
  • Now, a user can load the kernel file version that wants in BootEditor. Right click in a folder (screen) at the "Availiable boot screens" tree and you will see a menu with all "ntoskrnl*.exe" files that are in that folder. Select the one you want and BootEditor will load this file always for all folders.
  • Example:
  • We have the folder (screen) "matrix" and inside we have the files "ntoskrnl.exe" and "ntoskrnlSP1.exe". If we right click in folder "matrix" we see a menu with the 2 files. If we select the "ntoskrnlSP1.exe" file, BootEditor will load that file and if we select an other folder still will try to load this file from the active folder. If in a folder there is not a "ntoskrnlSP1.exe" file, will try to load the classic "ntoskrnl.exe" file.
  • At dialog "Make a new Boot exe file", under the check box "First, copy a clean kernel file �", now you can select what file you want to update. There, is a combo box with all the "ntoskrnl*.exe" files that are located in program's folder.
  • Also, we can check the box "All" and program will create all the files that are inside program's folder with the active bitmaps (one click to create all kernell versions)
  • Example:
  • Inside program's folder we have the files "ntoskrnl.exe" and "ntoskrnlSP1.exe". In the combo there we can see the 2 files and we can select what file we want to update, or we can check the "All" and program will create all the files.
  • Now, you can save the bitmaps in Run Length Encoding (RLE) format or in classic RGB format. RLE format compress the bitmaps and it is better. You can select the method you want if you right click at buttons "Save" and/or "Save All". A relative option at dialog "Make a new Boot exe file".
  • Until now, if a folder had subfolders, was a category (you can not select that folder and load a kernel file). Now, if a folder has subfolders, but inside there is the file "ntoskrnl.exe", you can select the file normally and load any "ntoskrnl*.exe" file that is there.
  • New options at dialog Options
