機能

  • RayPack
    • Advanced View for PackWrapper (PSADT) Projects - Microsoft PowerShell content of each PSADT project can be now edited directly.
      • RayPack keeps track of changes from the UI and updates the script as the changes are made (WYSIWYG).
      • The same happens in the reverse direction: adjusting the script manually is immediately reflected in the UI visuals.
      • With this change, the working environment of PackWrapper (PSADT) projects became similar to the MSI counterpart, where the editors are also organized between two sections: Visual Designer and Advanced View.
    • New Toolbar with Predefined Actions - The toolbar representing the available actions has been improved and expanded. It now has a logical grouping of actions (depending on their type and purposes), shows handy icons, and provides basic search capabilities. Some new predefined actions for shortcuts, compression, downloads, checking the presence of a file/folder/registry etc. have been added.
    • Visual Editing of All Standard and Custom PSADT Functions - Any standard or custom-written function can be now invoked via the Execute function action, where the description and purpose of each parameter is shown.
    • Support for Logical Branches (If/Else) - Script flow view can now visualize logical conditions and branching. Drag and drop and predefined actions can be used to build even complex installation logic.
    • PSADT Projects Now Support PRE- and POST-Action - Each of the three main flows (installation, uninstallation, and repair) now support PRE- and POST- actions. They can be used to configure various items like UI setup, welcome messages, final clean-up, etc.
    • Building Microsoft Intune Packages from PSADT Projects - PackWrapper (PSADT) projects can now be built directly into Intune win32 package format (.intunewin). The option is available from the FILE > Build menu.
    • Automatic Generation of Install, Uninstall and Repair Actions - When importing a file, RayPack determines if it is a valid candidate for a setup. In this case, an option is offered to the user, where the installation, uninstallation, and repair commands can be created automatically. For many setups, RayPack also creates an automatic command line to install the wrapped setup silently. This function kicks in automatically as you import your files and supports both, Microsoft Windows Installer files (.msi) and executables (.exe).
    • Support for Variables - The result of each action can be now assigned to a variable. The variables can then be used in the script, for example to achieve conditional steps or customized elements of the deployment. The variables are also shown in Intellisense dropdowns in the places that support them.
    • It is now possible to change PSADT icon - Icon of each PackWrapper (PSADT) project can be now easily change directly from the UI.
    • Support for MSIX App Attach .CIM Format - App attach builder can now create .CIM files next to the already supported .VHD disks.
    • Support for Direct Deployment to RayManageSoft Unified Endpoint Manager (RMS UEM) - Windows Installer packages can be now deployed directly to a cloud- or on-premise instance of RayManagesoft Unified Endpoint Manager.
    • Other Improvements:
      • When looking for a text with the Find and Replace dialog, the matches are now highlighted for a better recognition.
      • It is now possible to ignore a warning about missing files during conversion from the RCP format.
      • PackTailor now shows a warning if the output MST file would result in overwriting an already existing file.
      • Fix-up files are now automatically removed if the corresponding fix-up is removed from MSIX/RPPX project.
      • In case of a failed action in PackBot, it is now possible to go back and change the settings instead of restarting the wizard.
      • When adding a Custom Action to an empty project, an initial feature and component are now created automatically to ensure the product is installable.
      • Added hotkey support for renaming of folders (F2) in MSIX projects.
      • Improved conversion of COM registration from RCP to MSI/MSIX.
      • Minor fixes and adjustments of the default PSADT template.
      • It is now possible to import an icon directly during the creation of shortcut.
      • Improved conversion of services from RCP to MSI/RPP.
      • Folder identifiers are now changed when renaming a newly created folder.
      • A checkbox to open the target folder is now present in the FILE > BUILD menu for RPPX/MSIX projects.
      • Canceling of builds from MSI to other formats should be faster and give better feedback.
      • The Files and folders view now has a different set of icons for linked folders (with dynamic content) that are at the same time special folders (INSTALLDIR, ProgramFilesFolder etc.).
      • In the Custom Action Edit Dialog, drop-down options now show only technically valid scopes for sequencing.
      • When adding a file to an empty component, RayPack now offers automatic renaming of the component.
      • Improved windows size management when starting RayPack on low-resolution screens.
      • It is now possible to sort files by their size in PackWrapper (PSADT) projects.
      • Improved conversion from RCP to Microsoft App-V 5.x.
      • Improved Open File Dialog, which now keeps track of the previous location instead of always reverting to the standard project location.
      • Some minor UI/UX improvements in the Edit Feature dialog.
      • In the PackDesigner Custom Action edit dialog, when using a custom action name from an installed file, the dropdown options are now human-friendly names and not their identifiers.
      • It is now possible to open invalid .PS1 files. In this case, the visual editing will be blocked until the errors are fixed.
      • Improved default exclusion lists of resources for Microsoft Windows 10 and Windows 11.
      • Created Citrix App Packaging layers now have a default priority set.
      • Updated information and download links to the Microsoft .NET Framework packages.
      • Windows 11 builds are now possible to target in various places in PackDesigner for MSIX.
      • Improved default exclusion mechanism, ensuring that the irrelevant resources are automatically excluded when snapshotting.
  • RayEval
    • Find and Replace Text - By pressing CTRL+F or choosing the option Find and replace from RayEval context menu, it is possible to search for strings and replace them. This way it is much easier to locate the interesting content, and make bulk changes in many steps at once.
    • Choosing Custom Image Editor - In program settings, a new option has been added to define a custom editor for images. The images can be edited by using the context menu item.
    • Other Improvements:
      • RayEval context menus now have icons.
      • Improved default exclusion mechanism, ensuring that the irrelevant resources are automatically excluded when snapshotting.
      • Command line generator of reports can now accept output paths (parameter -pa) as both file paths or directory path. In the latter case, automatically generated file name will be used.
      • Importing of multiple images at once should be much faster now.
      • Improved screenshot capturing with multi-monitor configurations, where at least one monitor would have a different DPI than the others.
      • Default templates received a visual refresh, consistent with product branding.
      • Windows 11 and Windows Server 2022 can now be detected when starting a new project.
  • RayQC Advanced
    • Test Compatibility with Windows 11/Windows Server 2022 - New rulesets for Windows 11 and Windows Server 2022 have been added in this release. Both can be combined with other rulesets, and also consumed by automation apps. The updated set of supported operating systems also affects the App-V compatibility rulesets.
    • Other Improvements:
      • Migration wizard has received a visual refresh.
  • RayQC
    • Ability to Run a Checklist Starting from a Specific Element - It is possible to execute all elements from a specific element. This allows the user to resume testing from a given check that failed or delivered unexpected results. In previous versions of RayQC, only a complete checklist or a group could be started at once, potentially overriding previously finished elements.
    • Dependency Viewer - When editing a checklist, it is possible to visualize all dependencies a given element has. This way it is much easier to understand relations between elements, jump between them, or unlink the items in order to simplify the checklist.
    • New Plugins for Testing Connections and Executing Web Requests - Two new plugins have been added to execute popular tasks: verifying whether a connection to a specific URL works and to invoke web requests (for example calling REST APIs). Both can be found in the newly created group Web.
    • New Plugin for User Interaction (Message Boxes) - Although many checklists are created for fully unattended scenarios, there are use cases in which user interaction is needed. Typical operations are to show a prompt or a message box. In this version, there is a new plug-in which can be used to achieve both.
    • Setting Default Values Through Automation - A new command line parameter (/setDefault or in shorter form /sd) has been added to RayQC CLI tool. When used, all fields (other than specified by the user or overridden by plugin automation) will be automatically set to their default values.
    • Other Improvements:
      • Improved performance and visual feedback when executing lengthy operations on a virtual machine.
      • When saving a project for the first time, RayQC will now show an initial suggestion for its file name.
  • Pack Bench
    • Support for Multi-line Comments - Line breaks are now fully supported when adding or editing comments.
  • Pack Layering
    • Ability to edit layer priority - In the Metadata screen, a new field Priority can now be used to change the internal value of the layer’s priority (a number).
    • Other Improvements:
      • It is now possible to save the current layer by pressing CTRL+S combination.
      • A confirmation is now shown before removing files and folders.
