    This is on purpose.
    The user manual button from title bar, how many times did we actually used it? We can press F1 to open the user manual. I replaced that button with the Theme switch button which is used more often.
    Reset default appearance was also removed because with the new layout, I could not find a place for it.

    If a shortcut parameter ends with a quotation mark, the command is executed with the trailing quotation mark removed. Leaving a space after the quote solves this. [6.5.0.0, .NET 7.0, Windows 10]

    Path:
    Code:
    "%windir%\System32\cmd.exe"
    
    Parameters: (no space at the end)
    Code:
    /k "X:\Path with spaces\test.bat"
    
    Executed command line: (quotation mark missing)
    Code:
    "C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe" /k "X:\Path with spaces\test.bat
    
    Result:
    Code:
    'X:\Path' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
    operable program or batch file.

    Thank you for reporting this. Indeed, double quotes are trimmed when they shouldn't. It will be fixed in the next release.

    Thank for update.
    I am still using v6.0.0.0 because of the increased line spacing. This cannot be solved in newer versions with little effort?

    Below is a side by side screenshot from my machine. On the left is version 6.0.0.0, on the right version 6.6.0.0. There is the same content displayed in both screens. The same line spacing is also in the context menu. There is no change in line spacing between these two versions. Is there something that I am missing?

    I have no differences in the program interface either, but in the context menu there are such differences. It is not terrible, there are no remarks to the work of v6.0.0.0.

    Strange thing that you have those differences. I do not notice any difference in the context menu either. Version 6.0.0.0 on the left, version 6.6.0.0 on the right, with font size 12. Same size, same spacing, on my side at least:

    Is it possible to add and name folders from within the configure gui, so that urls can be easily dragged into the folders...or is this not possible?
    Thanks
    EDIT
    I did not realize that i could delete a desktop folder after having dragged into confiigure gui,so perhaps my request isnt really necessary after all ;)

    Starting with the next version, we will be able to drag and drop a folder full of LNK files in many subfolders into Biniware Run which will create the entire structure and convert all LNK files into shortcuts.
    The other way around, from Biniware Run back to your desktop, you can drag and drop only ULRs. Biniware Run can't write LNK files, it can only read them.

    Thanks..I initially thought I would have to keep the created folder somewhere ,and that biniware folders would be just shortcuts pointing to the said folders.,.But I realize now, that after folder is dragged into biniware run.... the original can be deleted.I find this software very usefull.Thankyou.:thumb:

    Create shortcuts to all supported files under a folder
    Press and hold CTRL key when dropping a folder into desktop icon or Shortcuts tab. The entire subfolders structure will be created and shortcuts to files with following file extensions:
    *.bat, *.cmd, *.exe, *.lnk, *.msc, *.url.


    For more interesting tips and tricks, check page 21 from the user manual.

    The displayed hash value for .NET 8.0 is wrong (the linked is correct):

    It should be

    Ok, then only the corrected hash value (which has nothing to do with VirusTotal Results) ... it should be ...

    @alexandrud

    There is a little problem since v6.7.0.0 (.NET 8.0) (maybe also since v6.6.0.0 (.NET 7.0)):

    After check for updates, it stays with "Check for updates" instead to switch to "Download selected files" ...

    brun_upd-chk_1.png

    After a click somewhere, it's ok then ...

    brun_upd-chk_2.png

    Seems the automatically refresh or so does not work.

    Greetings

    I tried with the latest version 6.7.0.0, with both NET Framework 4.8 and NET 8 version and I can not reproduce this. Please try with the NET Framework version and see if you have the same behavior. Can you reproduce this on another machine? Updates tab code is unchanged since many releases ago.

    @Alexandru

    I can't install the whole Framework here, however, I think that's not the point.

    If all files already updated I have the same behaviour as you!

    The point is: take an older language file (de-CH for example) and then click on "Check for updates". After it will highlight the outdated de-CH language file
    and THEN appears that problem.

    I still can not reproduce this problem. See below:

    Is this the only place where the UI does not update automatically on selection changed on your machine?
