AutoStart 1.0.0.59

#1 Post by rene »

This release has a lot of minor bug fixes and some new features.

The most important new feature in my opinion is the support for TrueCrypt volumes on a flash drive that has been built in. You need to mount the volume with TrueCrypt.exe, but AutoStart will track the dependency between a TrueCrypt volume and its parent Flash Drive. When you eject the flash drive the TrueCrypt volume is automatically dismounted before ejecting.

1. USB Hard Drives now get a tray icon.
2. TrueCrypt volumes, now also get a tray icon.
3. TrueCrypt volumes stored on a flash drive are automatically dismounted when that flash drive is ejected.
4. Selecting 'Eject/Unplug' on a TrueCrypt volume itself will dismount it.
5. Code to eject a drive has been rewritten from scratch and now supports more exotic device trees.
6. I improved the code that scans the flash drive for portable applications to handle PortableApps directories better.
7. Made a -eject [drivenum] switch so you can eject from the command line.
8. If you rename AutoStart.exe to AutoEject.exe and put it on a flash drive, you can then eject that drive by running the AutoEject.exe
9. A newer AutoStart will shutdown the previous AutoStart with a lower version number and keep on running itself.
