February 23rd, 2011· Bug fix: When using SpaceObServer with a MS SQL Server 2005 database scans did not run successfully
February 23rd, 2011· SpaceObServer is now available in two different editions: The Enterprise Edition includes all the known and new features. The lower-priced Standard Edition only scans one server and includes the functions relevant for this application range (without SSH and Exchange Server scans, no OLE Automation interface)
· Scans can now be grouped in so-called "Containers" to generate merged statistics like "Duplicate Files", "Extensions" or "History" for several scanned shares. Containers can be added and configured using the context menu of the directory tree or in the "Configure Scans" dialog using drag & drop operations
· SpaceObServer is now able to scan and archive the storage of Exchange server mailboxes (only "Enterprise Edition")
· Firebird can now be used as a backend database for SpaceObServer
· By optimizing the build up and update process of the backend database, the performance of the scans has been increased, especially for the initial scans (increase of 20 - 30%). Please note that scans newly added by SpaceObServer V5 cannot be used with SpaceObServer V4.x
· The "Extensions" list can now be grouped by file types like "Audio Files", "Video Files", "Office Files", etc. This feature can be turned on or off by a new toolbar button. The file groups can be configured on the new tab "File Groups" in the Options dialog ("Tools > Options")
· The scan scheduler ("Scan > Configure Scans > Update Options") has been enhanced so that you can now also schedule monthly or weekly scans (e.g.: on the 1st, 15th and 30th of every month or every week on Monday and Friday)
· Scans can now use any user credentials instead of the login of the scan service "SpaceObServer Agent" to scan network or local shares. The user name and password can be entered on the new tab "Expert Settings" of the Configure Scans dialog. In this new tab you can also configure some enhanced options which were formerly only accessible from within the context menu of the list above
· All lists can now be saved in HTML and RTF format by choosing the appropriate format in the "Save" dialog
· You can now deduplicate checked files in the "Duplicate Files" list by using the new context menu entry "Deduplicate Checked Files" or the new button in the duplicates toolbar. The deduplication replaces existing files with links to reduce the allocated disk space
· Now the "Number of Files" is shown in the "History" graph if this view type is chosen in the "View" menu
· The new options "Preserve directory structure" and "Automatically rename existing files" have been added to the "Move Checked Files" dialog ("Tools > Move Checked Files")
· The size unit TB (Terabyte) has been added to the "View" menu
· The information types "MD5 Checksum" and "Path Length" are now available in the "Details" list as additional column and for all types of export
· Improved the look of the user interface when using large system fonts
· In the Configure Scan dialog ("Scan > Configure Scans") you can now choose "Purge Data older than 0 Day(s)" in the "Scan Options" to execute only initial scans for the selected share. Note: In some cases executing only initial scans will be more efficient than updating existing data in the database. In this case there will be no "History" or size growth information available for these shares
· The new function "Copy as Text" has been added to the context menu of the "History" chart. This function enables you to export the values of the history chart as text to the clipboard
· The "List of Scans" beneath the directory tree can now be exported as a text file by using the new context menu entry "Save List..."
· The printed tree report now also uses the colors shown in the directory tree if the option "Use bold Text and Colors for Printed Reports too" ("Tools > Options > View") is activated
· File Search: The attribute "encrypted" has been added to the file attribute include/exclude list (tab "Owner / Attributes")
· Modifications of the scan configuration ("Scan > Configure Scans") of any scan are now no longer applied immediately, but by clicking the new "Apply Settings" button
· You can now use environment variables like "%APPDATA%" in the "Scan Path" edit field (above the directory tree)
· If any entries in the "Duplicate Files" list are check-marked, the sum of all checked files is now shown in the status bar, as it is already done in the "Details" list
· Introduced a context menu with functions to (un-) check all entries in the list of visible export columns ("Tools > Options > Columns / Export")
· The shortcut for copying the selected entries of the Details list to the clipboard is now "Shift+Ctrl+C". "Ctrl+C" in the Details list now copies the selected files or folders to the clipboard, just like the Windows Explorer
· When changing the sort type of SpaceObServer ("Sort" menu) the position of top level directories are now no longer changed in the directory tree
· The support for Windows 2000 has been dropped because Microsoft dropped it in July 2010. SpaceObServer V4.3.2, which is compatible with Windows 2000, remains available in our customer area for registered customers with valid maintenance
· Bug fix: A selected "[Deleted]" node in the directory tree (these nodes are shown if "Show Size Changes in Tree" is activated) caused incorrect size growth series shown in the "History" chart
· Bug fix: The update scan now correctly regards if any directory within a scan has been replaced by a symbolic link with the same name
· Bug fix: When deleting a file or folder from the "Details" list that no longer exists, the file was not removed persistently from the "Details". This could lead to inconsistent sizes in the directory tree and the Details list
· Several minor improvements have been incorporated
February 23rd, 2011· Before a new update scan is executed, SpaceObServer checks if the needed database indices are applied correctly. Missing indices led to very slow scans in former versions.
· Improvements when using the SpaceObServer user interface with a none administrator account.
· Bugfix: The function "Expand Folder over: x MB" ("Branch > Expand") did not work as expected, but led mostly to a collapse of all directories.
· Bugfix: The function "Expert Settings > Synchronize Database Values" from within the context menu of the "Configure Scans" dialog ("Scan > Configure Scans") did not work for scans for which another database had been set (context menu "Expert Settings > Set database for Root").
· Bugfix in "Search / Filter": When using the option "Check also Paths" for more than one "Exclude file name pattern" (Tab "File Name Pattern") the filter did not work as expected.
OLE Automation:
· - The property "ReportTitle" now also modifies the title of an exported graph. Set "ReportTitle" to an empty string ("") to revert this modification.
· - Bugfix: The filter "IncludeUserNamePattern" did not work as expected.
· A few minor bug fixes and improvements have been incorporated.
November 23rd, 2009· Bugfix: When choosing one of the predefined search filters (menu "Search / Filter") an error message occurred.
November 23rd, 2009· SpaceObServer has passed the "Compatible with Windows 7" logo test.
· The Details list now also shows size changes for single files.
· File Search: You can now search for files where the full path is longer than a certain number of characters. This allows to find paths longer than 255 characters which cause problems e.g. in the Windows Explorer. The new predefined search "Search / Filter > Files with Long Path" will list those files.
· File Search: We introduced new "Import" and "Export" buttons to save and restore file searches to/from XML files. The new buttons are located next to the "Reset" button on the "Overview" tab.
· Users list: Added column "Full User Name" (by default visible) and "User Comment" (by default not visible). Use the column header context menu to adjust columns.
· Details list: Introduced new columns "Title of Scan", "Full User Name" and "User Comment". This information is now also available for all other export types ("Tools > Options > Columns / Export").
· Top 100 Files list: Added columns "Creation Date" (by default visible), "Attributes", "Version" and "Permissions" (by default not visible).
· Under "Tools > Options > Columns / Export" there is a new export type for CSV files now. This way CSV files can now be configured independently from the text export.

· Added a new entry "Reset Chart Colors" in the context menu of the "Charts" tab.
· You can now zoom the active chart by using the mouse wheel while the "Ctrl" key is pressed.
· You can now scroll the treemap by keeping the space bar pressed while dragging the treemap using the left mouse button, similar to imaging software (e.g. Photoshop).
· Details, Extensions and Users list: When "[Files]" are selected in directory tree, the "Percent" value shown in the list is related to the total size of these files, no longer to the size of the parent folder.
· SpaceObServer now stores its user settings in an XML file in the user profile, instead of the registry.
OLE Automation:
· Introduced new function "ExportPDF".
· Introduced new function "ExportAllFiles". Use this function to export the full paths of all files that are located in the selected directory in any depth.
· You can now export the treemap chart by using the OLE function "ChartExport".
· The function "ListExport" now supports exports to Excel files ("*.xls" and "*.xlsx").
· Introduced new property "ColumnVisible". Use this property to configure the visibility of columns for any kind of export.
· Introduced new function "ExpandToSize". Use this function to expand all directories of a certain size in the selected directory branch.
· Bugfix: When using the "StartScan" or "ScheduleScan" function with a root directory that was already scanned before, an error occurred and the script stopped.
· Bugfix: The export of very long lists (e.g.: Details list in "flat" mode) took an unreasonable long time. We now improved this behavior so that also very long lists are exported quite fast.
· Bugfix: The "List of Scans" showed an allocated space of 0 MB for scans whose data tables were located on a different database ("Configure Scans > context menu > Expert Setting > Set Database for Root"). The sizes were refreshed correctly after the directory was loaded to the directory tree.
· Bugfix: When using "Export to SQL Server" to export from MS SQL Server to My SQL Server, an error occurred.
· A few minor bug fixes and improvements have been incorporated.
July 17th, 2009· SpaceObServer can now identify duplicate files by comparing the MD5 checksum of the file content.
· Added the new column "Owner" to the "Duplicate Files" list.
· Several minor improvements and modifications in the tree map, bar, pie and line charts.
· Colors of the charts are now customizable.
June 25th, 2009· When using a MySQL database the user does now no more need to set up ODBC data sources manually. All you need is an installed MySQL ODBC driver (See: "Options Dialog").
· File Search: When you search for file name pattern and activate the option "Check also folder paths", it is now possible to search for a combination of folder paths and file names, e.g. "*Windows*.exe".
· You do no longer have to take care of the character set used in your MySQL database. The character set of the tables used by SpaceObServer is now always "UTF8".
· When you try to connect to a MS SQL server ("Tools > Options > Database"), SpaceObServer now also checks if this could be an MS SQL Express version and automatically adds the postfix "SQLEXPRESS" to the server name, if needed.
· You can now hide/show columns in the list shown in the "Configure Scans" dialog ("Scan > Configure Scans") by the new right click menu of this list's header.
OLE Automation:
· Introduced new properties "RootCount" and "RootPaths" to query the already scanned root directories.
· Introduced new functions "GetTotalDiskSpace" and "GetFreeSpace" to query disc space information of the scanned root directories.
· The new example script "RootsDemo.vbs" shows how to use the new properties and functions.
· Bugfix: When exporting the directory tree or the "Details" list, the size growth information ("Size Growth", "% Size Growth", "Size Growth last Week" and "Size Growth last Month") were not always exported for each directory. Now all needed information is calculated before exporting.
· Bugfix: When exporting the "Details" list while it shows all files in "flat" mode ("View > Show Details Flat") sometimes the column "Full path" contained just the file name instead of the full path for some entries.
· A few minor bug fixes and improvements have been incorporated.
April 29th, 2009· If the option "Tools > Options > View > Show files deleted since last scan grayed" is deactivated, the SpaceObServer user interface will now no longer try to access the scanned file system directly.
· Bugfix: The priority of the "SpaceObServer Agent" shown in the task manager did not match the setting made in the "Options" dialog ("Tools > Options > Service > Priority of the System Service").
· Bugfix: If the deinstallation was canceled, the system service "SpaceObServer Agent" was deinstalled anyway.
· Bugfix: If an initial scan was started while this root directory was shown in the directory tree, a yellow exclamation mark was shown on the directory icon instead of the hour glass, which usually indicates the initial scan.
· Bugfix: If the view type "Percent" ("View > Percent") was selected, there was sometimes no value shown for the root directory in the tree when an update scan for this root was in progress.
· Bugfix: If a scheduled scan terminated while the "Configure Scans" dialog ("Scan > Configure Scans") was open, the field "Next Scan" was not updated to the next scan date.
· A few minor bug fixes and improvements have been incorporated.
April 3rd, 2009· SpaceObServer can now identify duplicate files by comparing the MD5 checksum of the file content. The MD5 checksums are optionally stored in the database (“Scan > Configure Scans > Scan Options > Calculate MD5 checksums”). You can tell SpaceObServer to use the checksums for comparison at "Tools > Options > Duplicates".
· We added the new column "Owner" to the "Duplicate Files" list. The "look and feel" of this list has also been improved.
· We made several minor improvements and modifications in the tree map, bar, pie and line charts.
· You can now customize the used colors in the tree map, bar and pie charts by a new color picker in the toolbar of the "Charts" tab.

· File Search: The search for file name pattern has been improved. Especially when the option "Check also folder paths" is used, the performance is much better now. It is now possible to use patterns that include path fragments like "*Windowssystem32*".
· Within the silent installation of SpaceObServer ("/SILENT") Now you can use the command lines "/SERVICEUSER " and "/SERVICEPWD " to configure the login. If you do not use these parameters, the local system account is used, which could result in access issues when scanning network shares.
· The selected History interval ("From" and "To" dates) is now also shown in the "Overview" panel ("View > Toolbars > Overview").
· The "Edit Annotations" function has been added to the context menu of the directory tree (sub menu "SpaceObServer"). The annotations are saved in the database and can be displayed in column "Annotation" the "Details" list.
· Bugfix: The shown results when using "Automatic Units" (menu "View") has been improved.
· Bugfix: In rare cases, when using more than one instance of SpaceObServer with the same database, it could happen that a scan was executed by the wrong scan service.
· Bugfix: When a file search, or a filter by extension or user, was activated, the "Details" list did not show any owners, attributes or annotations for directories.
· Bugfix: When using the function "Copy Files to Clipboard" from the context menu of the directory tree with an activated file search, an error could occur in some cases.
OLE Automation:
· Introduced the new properties "HistoryIntervalBegin" and "HistoryIntervalEnd", to configure the interval of the "History". "FileAgesCount" and "SizeDistributionCount" have been added, that holds the number of currently configured distribution intervals.
· Introduced the new Filter "ExcludeUserNamePattern" to exclude files owned by certain users.
· You can now use the variables "TE%" and "%TIME%" in the Excel export also for the "SheetName" parameter.
