The software now includes support for Mac operating systems, allowing users to access the program on Apple devices.
The update also includes CD volume protection, which is a crucial feature for anyone who regularly uses CDs for data storage. Additionally, the software now comes with a contextual menu that allows users to protect or unprotect things easily. This option makes it simpler to manage the files and data protection settings.
Another significant enhancement is the improved stability with FireWire and USB disks. This feature ensures that FileGuard operates reliably even when connected to external devices. Moreover, the update brings compatibility between Mac OS and specific disk drivers on protected disks. This enhancement ensures that the software works seamlessly with different disk drivers.
One thing to note is that FileGuard does not start up within the Classic environment, which might be an issue for some users. However, this feature is unlikely to be a dealbreaker given the other improvements.
The update also fixes two critical bugs in the software. The first bug prevented third-party screensavers from running correctly while the second bug related to foreign keyboard detection. Both bugs were causing issues for some users, and their resolution represents a significant improvement in the user experience.
Finally, the Netupdate feature ensures that users can get the latest updates automatically. This feature is especially useful for those who like to keep their software up to date without having to check for updates manually. Overall, the FileGuard 4.1 Updater is an excellent addition to the software and offers significant enhancement to the already powerful and robust product.
