Updated Inno setup
Changed contact mail
Added module reload in Module API

228 Added main program resource to WinList to improve its identity
228 Added support for MS VC++ (Epress) 8 & 9+ (tested v10 2010)

Some release updates

Johan — Sun, 06 Mar 2016 12:41:09 +0000

Hello. Not much have happened the last couple of years, but user community still seems strong so I spent some time this weekend to setup my dev environment again.
Currently posted a test version of next release v4.5. You can find it here:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/virtuawin/files/Test%20Version/4.5%20beta1/

Let me know of any issues please.
Unfortunately support for older Windows versions (pre-WinXP) will be dropped now, but should not affect many I hope. And they can always stay on v4.4 which is still going strong.

Update of SwitchDesk
