HashTools 3.0.1 is now available for download!

This version includes an improved update notification window, restores drag and drop functionality (was broken in 3.0), and some general performance and stability fixes.

Main Window

We encourage everyone to update to this new version today to take advantage of these improvements. HashTools is still completely free, so you can update at no charge! If you would like to see a complete list of all the changes, please visit the Change Log.

In Windows 7, if you want to do a true multi-monitor remote desktop session, both the local and remote machine need to be running Windows 7 Enterprise or Ultimate. If you're using a different version, you can still span the remote desktop session across all of your monitors, but it will be treated as one large display. Using DisplayFusion, you can split that spanned session into smaller virtual monitors. The steps below assume that you have two monitors of equal screen resolution on your local machine (the machine you're connecting from). If you have more than two monitors of equal screen resolution, just make sure to setup the splits in step 5 appropriately (i.e. 3x1 for 3 monitors).

1. Install DisplayFusion on the remote machine
2. Open Start > Run (or press Win + R) and enter mstsc.exe /span. Note: The monitors connected to your local machine must all be the same resolution for this command to work.
   
   
3. Enter the remote computer name and click Connect.
4. Open the DisplayFusion Monitor Configuration window, and click the Splits and Padding button.
5. On the remote machine (in your RDP session), click the Preset Splits button and choose 2x1.
   
   
6. Click OK to close the Splits and Padding window, and OK again to close the Monitor Configuration window.
7. You should now have two virtual monitors inside your spanned remote desktop session.
   
   

As always, if you have any questions or need to report an issue, please post them in the DisplayFusion Discussions, or contact us directly.

The latest versions of the CheckCentral mobile apps now support custom push notification sounds, so that you can customize your alerts to your liking! The custom notification sounds are available in version 1.4 and up, so if you're not seeing those options in the Settings on the mobile app, switch to the Help page and scroll to the bottom of the page to make sure that you're running 1.4 or higher.

You can set the notification sound for each notification type (Success, Warning, and Failure). For each type, you can choose either the System Default, CheckCentral Default, or a custom notification sound on your device.

To configure the notification sounds:

1. Open the CheckCentral mobile app
2. Tap the menu button (top-left)
3. Tap the Settings item in the menu
4. Use the buttons on the Settings page to select your notification sounds
5. Tap the Test button to get a test notification

If you don't receive the test notification when you tap the Test button, scroll to the bottom of the Settings page and tap the Re-register button to try re-registering your device for push notifications.

Customizing Notifications

DisplayFusion contains a built-in Function called "Prevent Window Deactivation." There are two ways it can be run on a game window. You can run it manually via key combination, or automatically via a Trigger rule.

Note: While this Function should work for most games, there are some games that may not allow this Function to work correctly.

Prevent Window Deactivation via Hotkey

1. On the Settings > Functions tab, find the "Prevent Window Deactivation" function in the "Window Management" section of the list, then double-click it to choose the key combination.
2. Click OK to apply the settings, then try out the key combination in your game.
3. After pressing the key combination, you should hear a "whoosh" sound to let you know that the function ran. If you don't hear that sound, see the next section.
4. After you hear the sound effect, you should be able to Alt+Tab out of the game and the game will not minimize.

Prevent Window Deactivation via Triggers

Global hotkeys may get disabled while some full screen games are running. In this case, you may not be able to activate the function using a key combination. Instead of using the key combination, you can enable it using a Trigger rule for each game. Here's an example Trigger rule to run the Prevent Window Deactivation function after a 60 second delay:

Prevent Window Deactivation Tips

• You can use wildcards when specifying the "Process Filename" in the Trigger rule. For example: If your games are all stored in D:\Games, you could enter D:\Games\* in the Process Filename text box to make the rule match all games in that directory.
• Some games will lock the mouse cursor to the window. For these games, you can try running the "Lock/Unlock Mouse Cursor to Current Window" or "Lock/Unlock Mouse Cursor to Current Monitor" functions. You'll need to assign key combinations to those functions in the DisplayFusion Settings.
• For some games, the Prevent Window Deactivation function won't seem to work on the first try. For these games, usually switching it to windowed mode (Alt+Enter) and back to full screen (Alt+Enter again), or Alt+Tabbing out and back in will make the function stick.

We're happy to announce that FileSeek 4.1 is now available for download! This release contains a few important fixes and changes:

• The context menu in Windows Explorer can now handle opening multiple files in one instance of FileSeek
• You can now drag and drop files into the Include and Exclude files and paths text boxes to automatically append them
• An preview area has been added to the results pane
• FileSeek now searches root UNC network paths correctly (i.e. \\server)
• Resolved an issue where the include files box gets cleared when opening FileSeek from the Explorer context menu
• Resolved an issue where date filters were not saved correctly in search profiles
