This Pre-Release 2.20 Release Candidate 2 (in x64 for Stable Release) coming with the changes that will be described in 2.20 full release.

Note

This version is a PRE-RELEASE version of SMWMTL 2.20. Use it with a lot of precautions. Some features may be subject to change or remove in a near or far future.

Important

Since this release of SMWMTL changes a lot of fundamental things, the previously announced dropping support for all Windows NT 5.x-based and all 32-bit OSes in #2, here is the new system requirements if you want to use SMWMTL 2.2x and above :

Minimal Configuration Recommended Configuration
Operating System Windows Vista SP2 (x64) Windows 7 SP1 (x64)
.NET Framework Version Version 4.6 Version 4.8
System Memory 128 MB 256 MB
Disk Space 128 MB 512 MB
Screen Resolution 1366x768 Pixels 1600x900 Pixels

For people that wants to keep these now-unsupported platforms and still wants to use SMWMTL, the older version 2.10-LTS is still an option as it will still be updated for a while (until v2.40 release).

Important

Please export your settings first before updating to Release Candidate 2!
Folder name in LocalAppData has been changed in this update, so if you don't want to reconfigure everything, export your settings, do the update and after reimport them into SMWMTL!

Anyway, if you (really) want to manually move the settings folder on your LocalAppData folder, here's how to proceed:

  1. First (before updating), export your settings from the application, it may help you if you encounter some problems.
  2. After updating SMWMTL, go to %LocalAppData% (or C:\Users\<Your Name>\AppData\Local).
  3. Find the •••Kiki79250••• folder.
  4. Create a new folder with the following name : AstragonQC_Softwares (Yes, with the typo (*facepalm*))
  5. Copy the SMWMTL.exe_StrongName_r5fdzx4hx5s3ws3oxg5rca4llvs4yb2p folder from •••Kiki79250••• to AstragonQC_Softwares.
  6. Try if settings has been correctly moved.

If the settings loader shows an error, delete the folder you copied, start SMWMTL, check if a new folder was created and import your settings from the exported file you did earlier (or retry Step 5).

Warning

Due to a complete rewrite of the settings part of SMWMTL, Settings files from 2.1x Releases are not compatible with 2.2x releases.
