v5.9 [Jan 25, 2018]
- Added new feature to check whether the nesting of folders with long names may cause technical issues in some applications, when the maximum number of bytes in absolute file paths that is guaranteed to be supported by the operating system is exceeded.
- The application now makes the user aware if an old license with manual registration entry has been activated with the option to become valid for a non-administrative user account only. This configuration no longer makes sense, so the registration should be re-entered with the option to become either valid for an administrator or for all user accounts.
- The application no longer offers evaluation mode without license to non-administrative users because such accounts would not be capable to test all features.
- The application now makes clear that the diagnostic feature to test fans cannot be used with the iMac Pro at this time.
- The option not to wake mobile computers when the display lid is opened had to be removed. Although this setting is still offered and documented by Apple, it no longer has an effect on portable Macs.
- Fixed a problem where the toolbar button in the control window to navigate to the pane overview could not be pressed in certain situations.
v5.8 [Nov 15, 2017]
- Added new feature to resolve a known operating system defect related to the presentation of special characters (like Emojis) in Safari 11 (available and necessary for macOS High Sierra only).
- Added new feature to create local APFS snapshots that can be used as rapid restoration points for Time Machine (macOS High Sierra only).
- Added new feature to review the list of local APFS snapshots (macOS High Sierra only).
- Added new feature to force the system to automatically reclaim storage spaced used by local APFS snapshots (macOS High Sierra only).
- Added new feature to manually delete local APFS snapshots (macOS High Sierra only).
- Added new feature to automatically warn the user if the root account of the operating system has permission to log in, which is a potential security risk.
- Added a workaround for a defect of macOS High Sierra where Time Machine can run into an error state where it returns invalid configuration data.
- Two new detail settings introduced by macOS High Sierra for System Integrity Protection are now shown correctly on the System Info page and by the tts command-line tool.
- Fixed a problem where the list of known subsystem identifiers for log filtering may have been shown unsorted.
- Fixed a problem where notification center messages for available software updates and Time Machine issues could crowd each other out.
- The feature to prepare a used disk to resolve possible defects within Disk Utility is now only offered for macOS Sierra, because Apple has fixed.
v5.5 [May 29, 2017]
- Added a new feature to automatically clean the system from startup job definitions when applications have been removed without correctly uninstalling them.
- Added a new feature to reset the language preferences of a user account to system defaults when language settings have been damaged.
- Added a new feature for the standalone command-line tool to enforce a re-run of the operating system setup dialog. This can repair the system when all administrator accounts have become unusable.
- The application will no longer auto-hide when switching to another application while the quick help display is open.
v4.6 [Jun 1, 2016]
- Added new registration features for licensing with immediate gratification and volume licensing.
- Added new feature to detect a common corruption of the System Integrity Protection of OS X El Capitan which is the reason for a series of system malfunctions.
- Added new feature to show the current hardware setting for System Integrity Protection as part of the Info pane.
