Settings profiles allow you to reset all settings to a profile’s preset values.
The "Default" profile lets you reset all settings to their recommended defaults.
.775
Bug fixes and optimizations.
.747
Added Dashboard support.
.746
Added a new "Ping the disk" option under "Disk Tools...".
Allows you to locate a specific disk more easily by activating its access indicator.
.744
Added options to ignore and unignore on-disk health warnings (SMART and NVMe).
Once a warning is ignored, if the issue causing it worsens, another warning will be issued.
You can choose to ignore all future warnings related to the issues causing the current warning. In that case, no further warnings will be shown unless a new issue is detected.
Warnings can be ignored from their respective on-disk health dialogs.
.743
Added a new "Do not interfere with disk access" option. If significant disk access is detected, scanning will pause to avoid impacting I/O performance.
The setting supports 3 sensitivity levels: Low, Medium, and High.
The setting allows you to select one or more types of drives to apply it to: removable drives, SSDs, HDDs, and cloud drives.
Default: Medium sensitivity, applied to removable drives, and cloud drives.
.734
Use power on hours from the device statistics log when available.
Use temperature values from the device statistics log as an automatic temperature source when available.
This overrides any interpreted SMART attribute values, but not the explicit threshold values or SCT temperature values.
Use SSD values from the device statistics log when available.
This includes the percent life used, lifetime writes, and lifetime reads values.
This overrides any interpreted SMART attribute values.
.723
Tightened up unique disk identification rules to prevent blank disks from being misidentified on Windows.
Unique disk identification now uses the cloud exclusively as the source of truth.
.717
"Do not scan automatically when running on battery power" now supports all platforms.
On Windows: Uses Win32 APIs.
On macOS: Uses IOKit power management APIs.
On Linux: Uses sysfs (/sys/class/power_supply).
"Prevent sleep when scanning while plugged in" now supports all platforms.
On Windows: Uses Win32 APIs.
On macOS: Uses IOKit power management APIs.
On Linux: Uses systemd-inhibit.
Added a new "Wake up to scan" option that wakes the system from sleep to perform a scheduled scan.
On Windows: Uses Win32 API wake timers. Whether the OS respects the wake timer depends on the current power plan. Wake timers are not necessary on systems that support modern standby (S0). Therefore, the "Wake up to scan" option is not shown on such systems. The option is also not shown on systems that don't support sleep.
On macOS: Uses IOKit power management APIs. Whether the system is allowed to wake up, and the exact wake-up time, is at the operating system's discretion. Any scheduled wake-up events are removed on uninstallation.
On Linux: Not supported.
Default: false
.698
Added an advanced setting: "DiskScanner_FilesystemCheck_PostUnmountScanDelay"
Sets the delay between when a file system is unmounted and when the file system check is allowed to start, for file systems that cannot be checked while mounted.
Value is in TimeSpan format, e.g. "00:00:10" for 10 seconds.
Default: "01:00:00"
Added file system checking support on Linux:
File systems must be unmounted for checking to occur.
For unsupported file systems, or when an appropriate tool is not found, those file systems will not be enumerated.
