Nagging information dialog about expired trial period shows only for 15 seconds instead of 30 seconds. - IMPORTANT: Completely reworked system of using tabs. The previous system was too complex, too confusing and not really useful. Now tabs work as more handy "bookmarks" which can be easily added, removed or switched betweeen. The feature is no longer marked as experimental, is ON by default and its settings were moved from Advanced preferences to General preferences, where this feature can be switched OFF if you happen to decide you do not like it. - BUGFIX: Fixed a smaller memory leak which might have occurred in some cases when loading many thumbnails at the same time. - BUGFIX: Fixed completely wrong counting of folder content size in Properties dialog (macOS and Linux). Fixed also a minor related bug on Windows. - BUGFIX: Fixed wrong calculation of necessary column width for certain types of date formats. - BUGFIX: Fixed a potential crash when closing application during loading of thumbnail of a very very very large image. - IMPROVEMENT: Optimized loading and rendering of thumbnails.

Now, the first item which starts with the searched text or the first item which contain a word which starts with the searched text. - IMPROVEMENT: When quick-search (when Space is pressed) those recent folders and files are preferred (ordered at the top) which contain a word which starts with the searched text. - IMPROVEMENT: Buffer for recent paths is extended from 100 to 1000 in each category (visited folders, run programs, edited, opened, viewed files). - CHANGE: Cloning of panels has now shortcut Shift+Tab regardless of whether it is to the right or to the left panel. 0.9.9.6 (2023-10-29) - BUGFIX: Fixed acquiring some file associations on Linux. "Open with" dialog was previously not always complete. - FEATURE: When folder names are in conflict in an operation, a dialog shows up which allows Merge, Replace or Auto-rename to solve the conflict. Previously the folders were always automatically merged. Automatic merging can be set in Preferences -> Advanced -> Automatically merge folders. - FEATURE: Going backward or forward accross locations (Alt+Left, Alt/+Right or Option+Left, Option+Right on macOS) exact items are navigated to. Previously only folders were navigated to. The old behavior can be switched in Preferences -> Advanced -> Go back / forward mode. - FEATURE: Default file association is labeled in "Open with" dialog. It is always orderred as the first one in the list.

It used to be in Preferences -> General -> Toolbars before. 0.9.9.4 (2023-09-28) - BUGFIX: On macOS and Linux, renaming of broken symlinks resulted in copying of the symlink. Not any more. - BUGFIX: Fixed scrolling in PDF viewer using touchpad on macOS. - FEATURE: On macOS, a folder or a file can be navigated to in HiFile using the standard way of dragging the item to HiFile application icon in system toolbar. - FEATURE: Bookmarks can be dragged (reordered) by dragging with a mouse in the bookmarks toolbar at the bottom of the main window. - CHANGE: Default key shortcut for inverting of selection was changed from Ctrl+I (Cmd+I on macOS) to Ctrl+Shift+A (or Cmd+Shift+A on macOS). - IMPROVEMENT: Introduced a separate "Get info" action on macOS which displays the system item information dialog.

This feature can be switched ON/OFF or customized in "Preferences->Appearance->Time thermometer". More customizations will come in future versions. - BUGFIX: Fixed preserving of displaying of permissions/attributes. This option was not stored to application settings correctly. - BUGFIX: Sorting by time in "Find files and folders" and "Find text in files" windows was broken in some cases. Now it is fixed. - BUGFIX: Loading valid archive files sometimes (very rarely experienced on macOS and Linux) incorrectly warned about duplicate files.

This does not happen if user manually minimizes operation progress dialog. - FEATURE: "Find text in files" window now allows sorting by number of occurrences. - IMPROVEMENT: Do not show "Permissions" or "Attributes" column header in thumbnail mode.
