Thanks a lot :-) For the people wondering where the new release is, there are multiple problems currently that have attacked me at once. First my new job, which leaves me with much less time (and even less inclination to continue programming after 8 hours of software development every day), then my main development laptop died some weeks ago and while I wanted to transfer the work to my new company laptop I've been waiting for my Visual Studio licence for that one for 6 weeks now... so everything has stalled a bit, but I'll try to somehow get out a Beta soon. While I'm writing anyway, some comments to another topic: of course QXL.WIN files can fragment like pretty much all other file systems (some more, some less, but basically all have the problem). But QXL.WIN files are virtual anyway, so even if the data within the drives is not fragmented, the Windows file still can be. And it's all not that much of a problem because a typical QXL.WIN file can usually fit into the whole RAM of a PC nowadays and thus the buffering prevents any bigger performance impact. The only problem there really is if the directories themselves get fragmented. In this case a defragmenting can make sense. As mentioned the only way to defragment a drive is by formating a new one and copying everything over. The easiest way I know for that is using the CueShell application, which can copy entire discs including all sub-directories with two clicks.
