New in GhostBuster Portable 110700 (Jan 3, 2015)

  • Updated code that shows a devices properties (context menu).
  • Added new code to release comport that are removed but still in use.
  • Note: it will not repair missing reservation in the comportdb (yet).
  • Added opening the registry for either the device or the services key (if present).
  • Note: due to technical limitations regedit must be closed before viewing a new devices registry entries.
  • Made it possible to lift the services barrier and remove them too (IniFile). It will probably not remove the device's service that was detected and led to the labeling as service.
  • New Installer based on Wix/WixBuilder.
  • Note: depending on the installation type, the location of the Ghostbuster.ini file will vary.
  • Either '%appdata%\GhostBuster' or '%allusersprofile%\Ghostbuster' will be used.
