1. Add ability to right click to save the MD5 has to the clipboard (it copies lot of data but MD5 is not there, would like to copy just MD5)
2. Add ability to right click to open containing folder even if file is not found by program.
3. Add ability to right click to open DOS Console of containing folder
4. Fix Selected item does not tell me what it is going to do to fix it. Would like options of how to fix it.
5. Would like options to SINGLE CLICK to use or not use. Using double click it removes it from the fix list.
6. Ability to print out current full list of what is being fixed and HOW it's being fixed.
7. Ability to SINGLE CLICK items when clicking the CHECK BOX to add to the Fix List, not just double and space bar
8. Ability to CHECK an item to not load up, but don't delete the entry (not sure what Fix wants to do)
9. Dim / Gray out the Fix Selected Items button if there are no items in the list to fix.

Big almost impossible request.... Do some kind of cross view scanning to detect "cloaked" entries...

Hi all, first time posting here.

I have an appearance or GUI suggestion.

When viewing a log, I've noticed that I have to look a bit harder to locate the next section of findings, the numbered\named titles. Is it possible to have these title bars colored, universally so they can be picked out easier? Maybe it's just my old eyes tho. Think

Like the way it displays other than that. Love the way I can toggle thru each section (Autorun\Hijack, Hijack Items, Item Fixer etc...)using Ctrl + Tab too, nice tweak.

Anyways, I've just begun to use the tool on a regular basis and will offer whatever suggestions I thinking others would benefit by.

Not likely to get much in tech related stuff as my heads a little too small to get around alot of how these tools work, but I'll offer what I can to help improve the product.

Thanks

I asked for this feature before. it is in autoruns.

Basically autoruns allow you to save results into a text file. Some time later you can run the scan again and then compare to the older results in the text file, and it will report what is changed.

This is really handy for idiots like me, who just want to see what has changed (what has being added, removed) between monthly checks.

I don't know whether you should implement it like autoruns, but i think this is a very useful function and should be there.

Also you can then find out at a glance, what this new software you installed did, with regards to starting up, drives, services etc...

This is on my list : I was thinking about comparing 2 run files, but I'm not sure yet on how to display the differences.

Log files are ok to post in forums, but ask to user to also upload their zipped run file.
It will be so much easier for you to spot "the bad guys"

I ought to have worded that better, I meant upon looking at the scan results in the RS GUI. A colored bar for each section, maybe even same as present, just darker would make it easier viewing.
