  • Major version pushed to v3, reflecting changes below and the requirement to uninstall any existing installation (notified by the installer).
  • Added optional Shell Menus context-menu handler, to allow Composer usage from Windows Explorer/File Manager. Not available pre-Vista.
  • Added dialog requiring user to shutdown programs that are locking context-menu dll.
  • Added Change feature to installer, to allow Composer reinstall and to add/remove context-menus.
  • Changed installation directories to split files into application (shell, installer, uninstaller etc) and bin (composer.phar, shims) categories. For admin installs these are <ProgramFiles>\ComposerSetup and %ProgramData%\ComposerSetup\bin. For user installs these are %LOCALAPPDATA%\ComposerSetup and %LOCALAPPDATA%\ComposerSetup\bin. The base folder name has been changed to ComposerSetup to avoid any conflicts in the Program Files directory.
  • Previous-data added: shell menus installed (key : ShellExt).
  • Previous-data added: application directory (key : AppDir).
  • Previous-data added: bin directory (key : BinDir).
  • Code signing added to all dlls for release versions.
  • Thanks to cmenning for suggesting the context-menu handler.
