New In This Release

Toucan 2.2.1 is bug fix release for Toucan. It also updates a number of in built translations and a Catalan translation is included for the first time. Thanks as always to everyone who helps out translating. Please note that there was a bug in the Backup password protection option in version 2.2.0 and your files may not be encrypted, please reencrypt them with version 2.2.1 to fix the issue, sorry for any inconvinience. As always Toucan is looking for translators, please see this thread for more information.

Translations

There are a number of Toucan translations that are missing words and short phrases, if you are willing to help update them they can be seen here. If you wish to translate Toucan to a new language please see here.

Important Note - Differential Backup

In previous version of Toucan the Backup Differential mode supported multiple source folders, there is however a bug in this mode that meant the files were not all backed up into a single archive but spread across as many archives as there were source folders. Because of this it is no longer supported, please ensure that your backups are correct and up to date.

PortableApps.com Installer / PortableApps.com Format

Toucan is packaged in a PortableApps.com Installer so it will automatically detect an existing PortableApps.com installation when your drive is plugged in. And it's in PortableApps.com Format, so it automatically works with the PortableApps.com Suite including the Menu and Backup Utility.
