Release Notes
FLASH UPDATE: 10/29/2008 - Our testers have identified a problem related to uploading very large files. Our development team is working on a resolution for this problem now. We recommend that testers wait to create further backups until this issue has been resolved. Thanks to all our beta testers for working with us to make Backazon the best backup software available.
This is a critical update that fixes serious problems from an earlier release. We recommend that all customers update to this release as soon as possible.
- ADDED: Log file format updated to include the upload size of the file. This varies from the original file size because of compression and encryption routines.
- UPDATED: Log viewer was completely replaced with new design. Now shows Cost Estimates for uploading, uploaded file size, and provides a flat List View of the logs.
- UPDATED: The header graphic has been updated to match our new logo
- UPDATED: Improved memory management logging
- UPDATED: Added program version information to log files
- FIXED: Some music files were not properly identified as uncompressable, so the compression routines ran on these files. No data was lost but the file size uploaded was larger than needed.
- FIXED: Log viewer does not treat files that are skipped as errors
- FIXED: Backup jobs would sometimes fail if a directory could not be loaded
- FIXED: Files that can not be backed up are no longer added to the directory as ghost entries
- FIXED: Set Windows Service name of Backazon Engine to BackazonEngine
- FIXED: Added dependency between the Backazon Engine service and the Windows Management Instrumentation service so that Backazon Engine will start on system reboot
- FIXED: Added handler to display generic engine start errors better
- FIXED: The Start Engine link will now start the Backazon Engine service if it is not running
