System Requirements Changes

CCEnhancer now requires the Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 or newer (instead of 3.5) to be installed. This change is to maintain consistency with other SingularLabs products.

*Users running outdated operating systems that don’t support Server Name Indication (SNI), such as Windows XP, may need to use the ‘Use alternative download URL‘ option from the Advanced menu.

• Added Brazilian Portuguese translation
• Updated the Greek translation
• Added automatic language detection on first-time use

System Ninja 3.1.8 is now available! This release focuses on improving the experience of our non-English-speaking users and refining our Duplicate Finder tool.

The full list of changes are available below:

• System Ninja now automatically loads in the correct language
• Duplicate Finder’s ‘match MD5 checksum’ option now works correctly
• Process Manager will no longer incorrectly detect Windows Store apps as non-responsive
• Tweaked the user interface and workflow design of Duplicate Finder

Need to find out whether a particular file or folder is being cleaned, or confirm that an important file hasn’t been inadvertently detected? System Ninja has a built-in search function hidden behind a keyboard shortcut. Once a scan has finished, you can toggle the search box by pressing CTRL+F.

File paths that contain your search input are highlighted and automatically moved the top of the list. The results update in real-time as you type and it can sort through thousands of files within a fraction of a second.

No more betas; this is the stable release of Bzzt! Image Editor. We’re pretty excited for Bzzt! to finally be released, especially since it’s been a work-in-progress (intermittently) for over two years.

The stable release is largely the same as the previous beta, but we’ve added a handful of bug fixes, two localisations, and two new features.

• Add Russian and Greek translations
• Tweaked UI so more verbose translations will fit correctly
• Added option to disable of image resizing (only compress and convert)
• Added option to skip resizing if the original image is already smaller than the output size.

Bzzt! 1.0 can be downloaded from here. If you have any questions or run into any problems don’t hesitate to drop into our support forum for help.

Windows 10 will block the execution of some program files if they’ve been extracted from a .zip file without first being unblocked. This issue affects several of our products, including System Ninja Portable, CCEnhancer Multilingual Edition, and various System Ninja plugins.

To fix this problem, perform the following steps.
1: Right-click on the downloaded .zip file and select Properties.
