New in Z-Cron 4.9 Build 09 (Sep 14, 2012)
- The Z-Cron commands HIBERNATE and STANDBY were reverted to their original function. They put the computer into standby and hibernation mode.
- PC Timer functionality, i.e. automatic wakeup from standby or hibernation mode, is now possible with the commands PC-TIMER and/or WAKEUPONSTANDBY. The desired wakeup time can be specified with weekday and time.
- The SMTP client integrated in Z-Cron can now be set up to use ports 587 (TLS) and 465 (SLS) instead of only the default port 25. This allows Z-Cron to be used with a GMail account.
- The built-in functions that need a connection to a user's desktop will now work correctly and are able to display their messages on the desktop, even when Z-Cron runs as a service in the LocalSystem account.
- In addition to the existing commands to start MP3 playback with an external software, Z-Cron can now play MP3 files on its own as well.

- The new GETCGI command can start CGI scripts on web sites or check if they are running. In contrast to the GETURL command, the script output is not saved.
- The command WAKEONLAN was extended with the Broadcast-IP option which allows to change the standard broadcast IP address (255.255.255.255).
- The scheduling for Z-DATdump was adapted for the current version. Now a tape intended for the backup for one specific day can be loaded automatically with a tape auto loader.
New in Z-Cron 4.6 (Dec 5, 2011)
- Minor update with some improvements and optimizations.
- The commands CONNECT and HANGUP were replaced with the commands RAS-DIAL and RAS-HANGUP. This allows to create different jobs to set up a VPN connection.

- With the commands NIC-START and NIC-STOP you can enable or disable a network adapter via Z-Cron.
- With the new command POWERSWITCH you can let Z-Cron control the main switch (for three or four switches in one housing).
New in Z-Cron 4.4 (Dec 5, 2011)
- With the new command HOSTPING names can be used unlike with the PING command.
- If you want to close a window using the window name (or a part of it) you can now use the command KILLWIN. All windows with the given name are then closed on schedule.
- With the new option once per day the time planning is deactivated after the first execution of the job. This makes it possible to create several start times for single job e.g. if the computer was switched off at the first start time.
- New command HOSTPING
- New command KILLWIN
