pmfow Files

After what felt like forever, I finally came back to this little project that I abandoned for a while due to not having time to maintain it, so sorry for that. This release is much smaller than previous releases, because I'm starting to prepare version 1.0, which will mainly replace the current .dat files with the "app catalogs" with JSON files, which provide many advantages over plain text files.

Changelog

• Added an internet connection check (downloads will no longer start without internet connection)
• Windows 2000 is no longer supported. Windows XP or later is now required to use pmfow.
• Updated App catalogs to version 60

Installation

Download the file named pmfow_win32_installer.exe or pmfow_win64_installer.exe and install it. The other 2 files (pmfow_update32.exe and pmfow_update64.exe) are just the standalone pmfow executables for 32 and 64 bit respectively, but without the necessary dependencies (these are used by the pmfow-updater tool). Alternatively, you can use the portable version instead.

Updating

There are two ways of updating pmfow to this version:

1. Using pmfow-updater

You can update pmfow to the latest version by running pmfow update and then pmfow-updater in a terminal window. This is the most straight-forward way of doing it. WARNING: If you are updating from version 0.4.1 or earlier, you will need to update the DLL files manually.

2. Manually updating

You can also update pmfow by manually downloading the standalone pmfow executable (pmfow32.exe or pmfow64.exe) and overwriting the old executable file (you might have to rename the new file to pmfow.exe, though).
