Minor update: version 5.15.1

This software update resolves several compatibility issues found after analysis of older file systems. Among important improvements is better support of file attribute separation on NTFS via "Attribute Lists" and as result - possibly better recovery quality in certain scenarios.

This update is considered as "recommended".

Software update: version 5.15

This update introduces support of actual most recent version of ZFS file system, with support of all current standard compression algorithms (LZJB, LZ4, ZLE, GZIP). This does not introduce support of complex (RAID-Z) volumes.
Also in this update were fixed many found problems. Among them are minor issues in user interface, missing translation of some interface elements (under Mac OS) etc.
The update is recommended for all users of software version 5.

Software update: version 5.14

This software update is major and includes many new features, problem fixes and reworked functions. Following new features are available since version 5.14:

• Advanced filter and parameters specification for file copying via "Copy with parameters..." tool. This function allows precise specification how and what to copy with bulk data copying operations.
• Supported Apple Software RAID. In RAID editions of UFS Explorer this allows to build apple "software RAID" automatically.
• File name and path now shown in "file already exists" dialog. This extension of "file conflict" dialog now allows specifying precise type and location of the conflict.
• Chunked VMware VMDK files now can be opened using "disk descriptor file". This allows to open "chunked" VMDK files as a single virtual disk even in non-RAID software editions.

Total rework applies to modification and unification of "file copying" procedure. Now it works same way in all software editions.

The following problems were found and fixed since previous release:

• Fixed "Dot issue" at the end of folder name under Windows;
• Better support of old big-endian UFS;
• VMDK partial cluster issue is fixed for ESX 5 VMFS;
• Fixed legacy HFS compatibility issue;
• Software now properly handles "dirty" file allocation B-tree on Ext4 file system;
• Fixed bug in restoring connection to offline network attached drives under Windows;
• Fixed crash in RAID builder if disk is disconnected during RAID reconstruction;
• Removed condition for hang of adaptive RAID5 reconstruction procedure.

The specified bugs may affect many users, so this update is recommended to all users of software version 5.

Minor update: software version 5.12.1

In this minor update there were fixed several reported issues. Major of them is complete switching to using of long file paths under Windows OS with extra path validation to resolve issues related to saving files from  Linux-based systems and NAS with extremely long file/folder paths.
The other fixes include fixing of reported visual and performance related issues.

The update applies to all UFS Explorer editions as well as to Raise Data Recovery software.

Software update: version 5.12

In version 5.12 there were applied certain modifications to complete adaption to new visual framework that were applied during development of next generation of CI Hex Viewer application that is expected for release in early 2014:

We have also discovered and fixed several issues in previous software version that include several visualization issues (e.g. custom structure RAID visualization) and saving/restoration of scan result.

Software version 5.12 is free update for users of version 5 and it is recommended in case you are experiencing issues with your current software version.

Software update: version 5.11

In this release, we introduce rework of software I/O subsystem for better support of third-party emulated virtual disk drives (including support of disk images emulated as "windows disks" by products of ACE Lab.).
Among resolved problems is resolved issue with invalid behaviour of "search" function of hexadecimal viewer component in some scenarios.
New features include extension of functionality of hexadecimal viewer/editor component to support dynamic number of columns as well as support of alternative decimal numeration.
This update is free of charge for owners of UFS Explorer version 5 license.
