NcDavTray v1.2.2

A tidy-up release — smaller, stabler, better documented. 🧹✨

🆕 What's new

Screenshots in the README — the documentation now shows what NcDavTray actually looks like: tray states, context menus, Settings dialog tabs, Explorer
with custom drive icons and labels.

Corrected file locking docs — the README now accurately describes how automatic Office file locking works (with and without the files_lock app), including the known same-user bypass behaviour.

⚡ Smaller footprint

The embedded bitmap has been replaced with a more compact variant — the script is about 43 KB lighter without any visual change.

🐛 Fixes

• Settings / UAC shield — a subtle Heisenbug that caused the WebDAV cache tab to silently ignore the first interaction is now gone
• Cache watcher status label was missing quotes in an i18n call — fixed
• $args in Start-InstalledInstance was shadowing a PowerShell automatic variable — renamed to $psArgs
• Duplicate tab-variable cleanup in the FormClosed handler — removed
• Unnecessary global: scope qualifier on an internal function — removed
• Redundant UpdateSaveButton call in the avatar TextChanged handler — removed

🔧 Internal

Extracted a shared New-HttpGetRequest factory to eliminate repeated HTTP setup boilerplate across four functions (~40 lines removed).

NcDavTray v1.2.1

A small but handy update! 🚀

🆕 New

  You can now open your mapped drive straight from the tray. No more hunting around Windows Explorer. 🎉

✔ Fixes & Cleanup

• A few small gremlins were caught and removed. 🐛🔫

Full Changelog: v1.2.0...v1.2.1

NcDavTray v1.2.0

This release introduces a full WebDAV Cache Watcher & Cleaner, integrated directly into the Settings UI.

🆕 New

• WebDAV Cache Tab
  • Displays all files currently stored in the Windows WebDAV cache (SYSTEM-scoped WebClient cache).
  • Shows name, size, modification time & entry type for better visibility and understanding.
  • Can be started/stopped from any instance – the watcher runs elevated when needed.
  • Shared across all running NcDavTray instances (single watcher for the machine).
• One-click cache cleanup
  • Immediate Clear Cache button to wipe all cached WebDAV files.
  • Optional privacy feature: Clear cache on exit
    If enabled, the watcher wipes the cache automatically when the last NcDavTray instance closes.

💡 Why this matters

• Windows normally cleans WebDAV cache opportunistically, but not always perfectly.
  This feature lets advanced users observe, control and reset the cache on demand,
  helpful for troubleshooting performance issues, large file usage, or when working on shared PCs.

NcDavTray 1.1.2 — Maintenance & Stability Release

This release focuses exclusively on reliability improvements and correctness fixes.
No new features are introduced; this version is intended as a stable baseline before the upcoming 1.2.x feature series.

✔ Fixes

• Fixed Nextcloud folder picker
  A whitespace-related regression caused malformed OCS URLs (depth = …, path = …) which prevented descending into subfolders.
  The picker now works as in 1.0.x again.
• Improved Watchdog isolation
  The Watchdog process is now scoped to the calling script’s PID, preventing cross-instance interference and enabling multiple NcDavTray instances to run concurrently, each with its own dedicated Watchdog.
• More robust unmapping behavior
  The Watchdog now re-loads configuration before unmapping and responds more reliably to sudden USB drive removal in portable mode.

✔ Cleanup

• Removed accidental trailing spaces across the script.
• Minor internal refactoring with no behavioral changes.

Full Changelog: v1.1.1...v1.1.2

• Do some minor cleanup around the WebClient tuning/UI code and remove no-longer-used bits
• Add a complete Italian translation JSON, including WebClient tuning, tray, and service-related strings

Full Changelog: v1.1.0...v1.1.1
