[Fixed] Sigil 0.9.7 requires kb2999226

Submitted by Zee_Pants on November 11, 2016 - 11:54pm

So I just downloaded Sigil 0.9.7 and upon running it, nothing happens (visually). Bypassing the launcher and running sigil.exe directly I get an error message about a missing dll.

By installing KB2999226 ( https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2999226 ) : Windows Universal CRT, and then running the launcher, all is fine.

Might want to mention the dependency or include the required RTs locally

[Fixed] Foxit Reader leaving a folder in AppData

Submitted by Emka on November 2, 2016 - 1:09pm

Supposedly after updating to Foxit Reader Portable 8.1.0.1013 from the previous version (not via the platforms auto updater but manually), I noticed a folder called Foxit Software in AppData/Roaming on Win10x64. I don't know what was inside the folder, if anything, sorry. Restarting Foxit and closing it did not delete it, and it kept reappearing after deleting it and starting Foxit. When I had deleted Foxit and did a fresh install of the current version, the issue did not come up again.

Sumatra PDF Reader 3

Sumatra PDF Reader 3 portable application is fully justified for the systems window. It could be used as for many other purposes, such as PDF editing, and save, print, over 69 translations and more. If you are satisfied with all of its functions, then you have to adopt this system tool for personal and official purposes as you want.

[Fixed] KchmViewer Portable fails to load recent files having non-Latin characters in their paths

Submitted by DabjeilQutwyngo on March 6, 2016 - 12:51am

The Portable App environment writes Unicode data as ANSI into the registry, which results in that KchmViewer Portable fails to open recent files having non-Latin characters in their paths.

Here is the screenshot about what happens when recent files are opened from the File menu. The word “Английский” should be instead of the unprintable characters between words "Category" and "English".

[Fixed] Sigil - pyvenv FileWrite missing

Submitted by softfoot on February 26, 2016 - 4:57am

In the absence of a specific Sigil forum I'll post this here --- feel free to move it if it's inappropriate here.

I have v0.9.3 installed and runningOK under Win7 64b - but when I install ANY plugin they refuse to run.

eg "Flightcrew" when run against a valid ePub (that validates OK with the built in validation tool) reports an initial error of
"Error Parsing Result XML: Premature end of document".

When I click on the "Details" button I get "Fatal Python error: unable to load the file system codec. ImportError: No module named 'encodings'".
