v9.0.0.290 – April 14, 2017
  • Fix Chinese updates from v8 now honor Chinese in v9. Other languages *should* be using your OS language, and if you don’t like that one, then you simply re-run the installer (which is also true for Chinese).
  • Fix issue when Active Processes is the last tab left open, but fixed by temporarily forcing All Processes to be the tab opened first. Further work will be done.
  • Fix issue with unterminated language array (had no functional impact, thankfully, which is why it wasn’t noticed).
  • Add support for some specialized license types
  • Fix Finnish language
  • Internal code improvements (switch to VS2015 build tools for more optimal and secure code!)

v9.0.0.326 – April 30, 2017
We dug deep to find issues with this build, so are approaching the end of the post-release bug work and are now focused on new development again! Other issues are being tracked, but all minor (e.g. grammar, etc..).
  • Fixed issue where use of any default (persistent) process memory priorities would cause a lock-up of Process Lasso or it’s core engine due to a blocking critical section errantly entered twice. This seldom-used feature was a nook we caught during testing; seldom used because memory priorities are fairly useless to end users.
  • Switch to inetc NSIS installer plugin, which is more likely to result in successful in-installer downloads of the correct edition, as opposed to the fail-safe of shelling out to the web browser
  • Disallow Server Edition beta updates for reasons of stability, since Windows Servers are typically mission critical
  • Transitioned 2 new documentation pages to the new web site (Command Line Arguments and About the INI Config File)

v9.0.0.340 – May 11, 2017
This is a minor release to correct some deficiencies in recent builds and completes early maintenance on the CPUEater app, which was only quickly addressed prior to the last scheduled update. The core problem with prior use in v9 was the ‘Ignore children of foreground processes‘ setting, which was not properly turned off prior to starting the test (at least not turned off and the governor given time to update it’s settings!). Upon reflection, this default was changed, and the CPUEater was rewritten to give warning in case of this option, which simply means you have to click away from the CPUEater window before ProBalance will kick in. However, once a system is inundated, this may be hard! REMEMBER, the CPUEater *only* creates normal priority threads in normal priority class processes, thus this sort of monopolization even blocking higher priority threads should not be possible, but it is! This is the core CPU Scheduler deficiency that ProBalance corrects.
  • Show CPUEater options by default
  • Remove ‘Ignore children of foreground processes’ checkbox from CPUEater, as it could not be updated reliably from there
  • Change default setting of ‘Ignore children of foreground processes’ to false, as this may be the preferred configuration for most (it is for me). If you see it act on anything you don’t want, exclude that specific process.
  • Remove some experimental code in prior builds
  • Improve uninstaller temp path use so that it functions better (requires a product reinstall to replace the uninstall.exe file)
  • Update French

v9.0.0.38x beta – July 26, 2017
  • Restore addition of Process Lasso install path to environment PATH variable for command line use (was removed due to installer problems with it, rewritten in C++).
  • Add pl-update.cmd to let users do a quickie update check. No output if nothing available.
  • Improvements to new Task Scheduled update check (work in progress)
