  • An updated and simplified workflow that guides you through the 4 steps to add the PSF.  Just follow 1,2,3, and 4.
  • Application analysis now automatically selects fixups that are detected.
  • Supports the launching of applications that need elevation by injecting the external manifest option for PsfLauncher.
  • Supports apps that place shortcuts to cmd/bat files, document files, or directly run PowerShell scripts.
  • Numerous fixes in the FileRedirectionFixup to handle the layering correctly in apps that detect file paths used.
  • Support in DynamicLibraryFixup for apps that contain both 32 and 64 bit dlls.
  • Simplified the config.json file by using the generic wildcard for processes previously only supported in TMEditX.
  • The Test_PEInfo tool is updated to add both .Net and Manifest detections.
