Here's the list of changes since version 2.5.474:
New
- VMware Fusion 12.0 support
- Both Fusion Professional as well as Fusion Player are supported.
General changes
- The screen to guide you through enabling Full Disk Access via the apple Security Preferences screen now has a button to immediately open the "Security & Privacy" panel on the privacy pane.
- The new resize logic caused the application to start in the top left of the screen instead of in the middle. This has been fixed.
- If the backup process gets interrupted, for example by a reboot of the host, then a backup snapshot might not be removed. When trying to run a new backup this would then result in a slightly confusing error 'Failed it already has a backup snapshot'. If this problem happens now then Vimalin will first try to automatically remove that old backup snapshot and continue with the backup if that was successful.
- If the worker could not connect to a network drive then it would not register the backup. This is now properly saved and handled in the backup archive.
Backup Archive:
- When a job gets scheduled it now changes the status for that archive immediately to "queued". That way the user knows that their action was registered by Vimalin.
- There was a timing issue with jobs that completed before the screen was updated and as a result some jobs would never display on the backup archive as being busy processing. The timing logic has been tweaked a bit so that it would be much harder for this to happen.
