UltraEdit, UltraCompare, UEStudio forums

I don't think that's a pre-release as of late last week, and I also opted not to install Pieces (though it crossed my mind that it's somehow related). I sent in an email about the issue and they're looking into it.

The behavior has returned in v2024.2.0.39 (Win11 24H2). Can anyone confirm? Like before the problem was corrected last year, killing the processes seems to have no ill effects.

Mofi  That's great information, thanks. It didn't occur to me to lookup whether either is permitted for the format, so I'll check into why that was a problem. On the "line ending type and displays it in the status bar at bottom of the main application window," while I do see a lot there, including ...

I uncovered a seeming deficiency in the way that UltraEdit does that, at least for the .json I was using. The .json wasn't working as it should, so I looked at it in UE (latest version in Windows). It seemed perfectly fine based on what I knew should be in the file, color coding included. When I loo...

FYI: Corrected in 2022.2.0. 48

OK, I did that, and the gist of the response is: Due to changes Microsoft made to WebView2, changes were made to UE to "verify that Webview2 is installed on a system." So, that's why the processes are immediately spawned, but it is a bug that they're not then closed. It's implied that this will be a...

It continues in today's x.44 release, increasing the chances that it's by design. What a curiosity.

I see that 2022.1 (which I previously ran) originated the feature: "UE 2022.1 comes with the integration of WebView2, a Chromium-powered rendering engine that significantly upgrades browser view and live preview. This replaces the Internet Explorer-based control to render HTML used in older versions...

Yes, I think that's a great improvement on the first idea. Exactly that, or something very similar, should happen. As for the auto-formatting one, that is a little more fraught (and certainly less important), and the issues you bring up are definite considerations. I'm not sure which way to go with ...

Coming at this from another angle then, I thought of a way in which the mistake could never be made: as long as the ASCII options aren't checked, enforce searching only in byte chunks. In other words, "Find Next" doesn't even activate if you have a stray nibble. As opposed to it "working" but findin...

I feel that I must grudgingly accept. :) Thanks.

OK, let me give an example (and I'm talking hex searches only, the ASCII option you mentioned is unchecked). This exists in the file: 55 00 6C 00 74 00 72 00 61 01 You copy this from elsewhere (no spaces, since that's just often the way) and paste it into Find: 55006C0074007200610 That search will f...

I just noticed that the Find dialog says "Hex strings should have two characters per byte," but for the purposes of searching, that's counterintuitive, at least to me. If you enter a long string and it happens to have an odd number of characters accidentally, your search will fail even if that strin...

I've noticed for v15 (and its hotfixes) in Win7 beta and RC that UE will not finish its install wizard unless I go well out of my way to elevate the install. It puts up a message eventually saying that I don't have sufficient privileges, at which point I have to cancel the install. Oddly enough, th...

I asked, and they said it's been removed. Rather uncharitable, but oh well.
