Removed Functionality

Removed Functionality

• Flickr sync is no longer supported.

• Removed support for display of "Compatibility Files" merged into folders below Program Files and similar:

  • This is an outdated concept which File Explorer has also dropped. Dates back to the introduction of UAC in Windows, when a lot of software still stored settings under Program Files. Rarely used today.

  • The Set COMPATIBILITYFILES command has been removed.

  • The Go COMPATIBILITYFILES command still works (toggles between the normal folder and corresponding Compatibility Files folder).

• Removed options to make various Opus windows on-top. (With UI adjustments to help. For example, Preferences and Customize can be saved, cancelled or brought to the front via Lister titlebars without having to go back to their windows.)

• The "slide-out navigation" buttons have been removed.

• The ability to change the root of the folder tree has been removed. (It generally confused people, and tree contents are now much more configurable, so it shouldn't be needed.)

• The Go ROOTTREE and Set TREEROOT commands have been removed - new Folder Tree Contents Preferences make them unnecessary for most people. We may add these back in the future.

• The Go LIMITPATH command and associated functionality to limit a Lister to specific locations has been removed.

• Support for Windows Vista has been dropped. Windows 7 is the minimum now.

• Support for 32-bit Windows has been dropped.

• There is no longer a separate "Light/Lite" (as in simplified) version of Opus. (Light users can still upgrade to 13; the upgrade process will treat them the same as Pro users.)
