hello
like allways, ask them nicely to put the last working release on beta branch as it cost them nothing to do that , except a lit of their time ....
these kind of little dev studio most of the time, think it's easier to follow the trend when , in fact, it's not because using a new tool at it full potential need knowledge ... and a little dev studio does not have that sadly ...

do you know how i can prevent my windows 7 pcs from disconnecting my external harddrives? it happens at startup independent on wether i use normal boot or hibernation. i have to plug it out and then back in. it seems to be a windows 7 specific problem, as it only happens on my windows 7 pcs and not on the others.

i noticed that selective usb deactivation was on and turned it off. the screen shot was uneccesary however, as i did not need it. selective usb deactivation is deactivated on my windows 8.1 pc and my acer laptop. i have not checked my desktops, as i only turn them on when i need them. the change i did will hopefully prevent the harddrive from getting disconnected again.
