In this mode setup allows the user to install the product on the removable media and network shares.
Transactional Installation:
· Setup now performs installation of the product as a single transaction (on supported operating systems and configurations). If anything goes wrong during installation, including software or hardware errors, computer configuration is not modified. All setup activities are part of the transaction, including modifications done to the file system and system registry.
Restart Manager Support:
· Now, when setup needs to replace or remove a locked file, it uses the system restart manager to find the application that has a file open. It also offers a way to gracefully restart the application in order to update the file. This new feature greatly reduces the need for system restart during setup.
Per-User Installation:
· In addition to the previous, "per-machine" installation mode, a new installation mode is offered. It allows the user to install the application only for himself. In this mode, setup does not modify any per-machine settings. In addition, a user does not have to have administrative rights to install the Hex Editor Neo.

· New Features
· Shared Files Support
· Hex Editor Neo is now capable of working with files shared with other applications. After you open a shared file, Hex Editor Neo starts watching for file's modifications. If another application makes changes to a file, Hex Editor Neo displays a Shared File Conflict Dialog, which gives you options to ignore a change, update editor's copy, and/or merge changes with local changes.
· In addition, for all "update"-kind options you may instruct the editor to compare the new version with a previous one. Two file comparison algorithms provided by File Compare module are supported. Hex Editor Neo also allows you to retain older versions of a file in the editor. You may edit these old versions as any other kind of document in the editor, save your changes and so on.
· Updated Features

December 9th, 2008· New and Updated Features
· Disassembler
· Version 4.71 brings support for .NET assemblies. It also features an updated disassembler view window, with support for fast navigation, selection of assembly text, column configuration and much more. It also allows you to display an assembly listing in AT&T format.
· Disassembler has an improved quality of the assembly listing. Module imports are now also analyzed and displayed, in addition to symbols.
· Structure Viewer
· The most of the new functionality is within the Structure Viewer module again. It now understands new built-in types, statements and directives. It also supports variables, constant and variable arrays and expression evaluation with dynamic type inferring.
· This release eliminates most of previously imposed limits on structure size, array size etc. The Structure Viewer Tool Window has been updated to easily handle billions of items with very fast and clean navigation. Commands like Expand All and Collapse All will take less than a second expanding/collapsing a structure with a billion of items. If you bind a complex structure to a huge file (for example, AVI), you can estimate the editor to easily carry the job without running out of memory.
· A number of handy features, such as Synchronize Position (which works "both sides" - from structure to document and from document to structure), Mouse over field tracking (which highlights a field under the mouse cursor) greatly simplify the file structure analysis.
· Structure definitions may extend their functionality by referring to functions written in JavaScript or VBScript. These functions have access to the underlying parser and document, thanks to the IFileDocument and IParser interfaces, exposed to them by the Hex Editor Neo.
· The overall compilation and binding performance has been greatly improved. More information about the new functionality provided by the Structure Viewer is found in the included documentation.
· Copy&Export
· The Advanced Copy & Export module now follows the model offered by the editor window. It now allows you to execute the Copy and Export commands with no selection present. In this case, a cell under the cursor is copied/exported.
· The current byte order is now taken into account when performing copy or export functions.
· It also offers an option to configure the number of digits to be exported for floating-point and double precision floating-point types.
· Refresh View Command
· When working with logical or physical disks, process or physical memory, this command allows you to refresh the editor window to display any possible changes to the underlying data, performed by some other application or operating system.
· /s Command-Line Parameter
· When launched with "/s" command-line parameter, Hex Editor Neo forwards the list of files to open to an already running instance, if there is one.
· "Display cursor address on the left" Option
· Several customers complained about the address of the cursor location being displayed at the start of the line. Now this functionality can be switched off.
· Reverse Sorting on Statistics Columns
· Statistics window now allows you to sort columns in both ascending and descending order in its table mode.
· New IFileDocument Methods to Be Called from Scripts
· A previously introduced ISequence object was called to make it possible to call methods of the IFileDocument interface from scripting languages (such as JavaScript and VBScript). Although, our tests has shown, that in some cases it is still impossible for a script to call one or another method due to the limitations in the Automation model and the way scripting engines are implemented.
· This release finally resolves the problem by providing a special variant of each affected method. Every such variant may be easily called from the scripting languages.
· Go to in Process
· Go to in Process command now interactively updates the cursor position when you click on the image sections or modules (without closing the Go to window).
· UI Sugar
· You can now make any tool window appear as a tabbed document. That means that the tool window will not be dockable to one of the four sides of the main window anymore, nor it will float over the main window, but instead will be placed where all editor windows reside. You may then take advantage of the Editor Window Placement feature to position a tool window.
· Each tool window now also memorizes its floating position separately of its parent frame.
· Ctrl+Mouse Wheel now quickly changes the font size in an editor window. This is a quick way to change a font size without using the Layouts dialog.
· Bug Fixes
The following is a fixed bug list:
· Purge All History and Load History Commands
· These commands did not work properly in Free Edition mode.
· Copy&Paste Bugs
· Several bugs with copying and pasting document data have been found and fixed. This may include several application crashes.
· A Lot of Minor Bugs
· Quite a few of minor bugs or inconsistencies were found and fixed throughout the product.
August 4th, 2008· Structure Viewer has been completely redesigned and rewritten. It now supports a sophisticated structure definition language with expression evaluation, pointers and bit fields, case unions and assertions, constants and enumerations and much much more.
· In addition, C99-compliant preprocessor is run before a source file is compiled, a preprocessor with full support for macros and conditional compilation.
· Source files are optimized and saved into precompiled files, which are then quickly loaded by Hex Editor Neo on demand. Structure binding performance has also been greatly increased.
· In addition to the ability to bind a structure to an absolute or relative address or to a cursor position, a structure may now be bound to an expression. This expression may reference constants and enumerations declared on the global source file scope or even reference previously bound structures.
· New Sequence Object provstronges scripting languages (such as Javascript and VBScript) a way to build a pattern and pass it to File Document Object methods that require a pattern.
