7+ Taskbar Tweaker v4.1 is out.

The most important change is the new help file, which explains the available tweaks. It should make it easier to get started with the tweaker.

Also, 7+ Taskbar Tweaker has a new bug/feature tracker.

Among other changes:

• Update notification: A checkbox for not notifying about a particular version.
• Latvian translation, thanks Aigars Jacmenkins!
• Windows volume control (SndVol.exe) runs in higher priority for better performance.
• Fixed right drag detach on vertical taskbar (“Drag within/between groups using right mouse button” option).
• Rebuilt the portable launcher to support older processors (versions 4.0.4 to 4.0.10 supported only processors with SSE2 instruction set).

Note
There is a bug in versions 4.0.10 and lower, which may lead to a crash when trying to update.
If you encounter such an issue, please download and update manually.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Multiline Ultimate Assembler v2.1 extends the syntax of RVA addresses:

• Explicit base address.
  e.g.: PUSH $(00400000).1000
• Short syntax for block addresses.
  e.g.: <$$1000>
• Fix: Module names are no longer case-sensitive.

Multiline Ultimate Assembler (previously known as MUltimate Assembler) v2.0 is out.

A new name
The plugin is called Multiline Ultimate Assembler now. I never liked the old name, MUltimate Assembler. It could easily be misread as Multi-Mate, while the intention is Multiline-Ultimate.

Note: if you update from an older version, change the section name in ollydbg.ini from “MUltimate Assembler” to “Multiline Ultimate Assembler” to keep the plugin’s optiosn.

An OllyDbg v2 port
The plugin was ported to OllyDbg v2.
Currently there’s one known issue: the data commands (DB, DW, DD, etc.) aren’t supported by the new OllyDbg’s assembler, so you cannot use them.

A help file
I’ve written a help file, which explains the assembler syntax, the editor interface, and the plugin’s options. It should make it easier to get started with the plugin.

7+ Taskbar Tweaker (previously known as 7 Taskbar Tweaker) now officially supports Windows 8!
In addition to the new name and the Windows 8 support, several small bugs were fixed, and general stability was improved, so it’s a recommended update even for Windows 7.

Meet MUltimate Assembler v1.7!
New in this version:

RVA (relative virtual) addresses

In the previous post I’ve introduced an experimental 7 Taskbar Tweaker version for Windows 8. It had a number of flaws, and didn’t support Windows 8’s multiple taskbars.

Here is a new experimental version, with all of these flaws resolved (portable version):
Windows 8 version is stable now, get it here.

Please report any issue that you encounter.

Remember that this version is designed for Windows 8 Release Preview only, and would not work as expected on earlier builds of Windows 8. It should work well on Windows 7, though.

P.S.: I think about renaming the tweaker to 7+ Taskbar Tweaker. What do you think?

I’ve been working on Windows 8 support for 7 Taskbar Tweaker lately. It’s not ready yet, but mostly usable, so I decided to make an early experimental release.

This version is designed for Windows 8 Release Preview only, and would not work as expected on earlier builds of Windows 8. It should work well on Windows 7, though.

7 Taskbar Tweaker v3.3 is out.

• Option: Left click on the active thumbnail minimizes the window. Windows 7’s taskbar provides no easy way to minimize a window in a combined item. The whell scroll options help here, but when a mouse wheel is not available (e.g. a laptop), they don’t help much. The new option provides a way to minimize the active window by clicking on it’s thumbnail.
• Fix: Multiple thumbnails now show up when grouping is disabled. This bug existed since the first version of the tweaker. When grouping was disabled programs which used to show multiple thmubnails for a single window (like IE and it’s thumbnails for tabs) showed only one thumbnail.
• Italian language. Thanks vfede!
