GUI Query Tool Change Log
=========================

Notes:
======
On some BIOS dates, such as Lenovo for one brand, sometimes the BIOS data is not 
read correctly, not sure if this a fault with WMIC or that the actual BIOS has 
some non standard letters that cannot be shown. This is just for information 
and does not affect the running of the Query Tool.

Your MSDM key/Table information is NOT shown in the saved report, same with any
product key, even the Serial tag, as mentioned many times, this is for privacy 
reasons and if you need to post in the main thread or private message the
report text file if any problems need to be addressed.

The GUI_QT like other MRP programs do NOT 'phone home' or send any data to any
server on the web. All data shown/or saved is stored locally on YOUR computer
ONLY.

All virus warnings are false-positives, it is purely due to the way the MRP
programs are compressed/compiled. Also because of the way AntiVirus programs
work, (they cannot read the internal data so they flag them as unsafe).

If you obtained any MRP programs from anywhere other than the MDL forum then 
there is no guarantee that the programs are 100% safe - unless the hashes are 
a match to what is shown on the MDL download links. Most don't so be very careful 
if you obtain the files from non MDL valid sources!

You can run the GUI QT from a Admin command or P/Shell prompt with the parameter -saveonly with or without the - character, this will not show the full GUI only the progress window, or, any error/information popups that may occur.

When right clicking in the GUI window and selecting 'Save Reports' you will be asked where to save the text reports.

When using the 'saveonly' parameter via command line then once the scanning has completed you will be presented with the save location requester.

You can use the 'Save Location' button on the [Tools] tab to change the default save location for ALL logs, when this has been changed then all the saved log files will be at the new location until changed again via the button. This will be saved in the registry so it will be remembered when the GUI QT is next run.

There are new 'Are You Sure?' type requesters when saving reports and exiting, in-case you clicked them by mistake.

You will be asked for Admin rights to run the GUI if not already gained/granted.

================================================================================ 
08th Aug 2023 v1.01
===================

First non beta GUI Query Tool release.

The default save location is the Desktop like the old Query Tool saving was done. You can change this via the Tools tab and the corresponding icon option. This will be saved in the current PC's registry where the program is run from, using via a remote pc operation may have strange side effects for the saved location. There will be a .ini saved option/location added at a later date.

Sometimes on the Security/AV detection section Norton Endpoint is not shown if it is installed. Majority of other AV suites should be detected ok.

Majority of the old QT's information should be shown and a lot of newer data too which could not be shown on the older non gui version.

It is still 'work in progress' so there may be times when information is not shown correctly and in rare cases it may crash or not respond in this situation just close/end task the GUI QT and retry.
