ExpanDrive 2.0.1

Jeff Mancuso May 1st, 2009

Hot on the heels of our ExpanDrive v2.0 release, we’re happy to announce ExpanDrive 2.0.1 – which fixes a couple major issues that cropped up during wider release. Thanks to everyone who provided feedback and patience while we sorted out a couple bugs. Full release notes are here. This update is available over the auto updater and at the ExpanDrive for Mac page.

  • Fixed major bug in SFTPv2 which caused a performance slowdown and occasional empty directory
  • Fixed major bug with S3 which caused Finder to unlink certain files immediately after copy
  • Increased certain timeouts in SFTP to deal with varying performance
  • Added experimental support to correctly distinguish/convert between UTF-8 Normal Form C [Linux style] and UTF-8 Normal Form D [Mac style] to help decode of international characters
  • Added Italian localization, updated Swedish, Brazilian Portuguese, update Vietnamese translation — please keep sending updates in, our free license offer stands!
  • Moved default cache directory to ~/Library/Caches/ExpanDrive
  • Did away with the animated fade in/out of windows
  • License files can now be dropped onto ExpanDrive in addition to being double click
  • Added link to S3 drive panel for users to find their S3 Access Key
  • Add hidden/unsupported/undocumented option to hide the Status Bar Item via “defaults write com.expandrive.ExpanDrive2 HideStatusBarItem -bool YES”

    Dear Jeff,

    Where is the Windows Cache file(s) stored? Can we apply EFS to this folder without compromising functionality? Is the cache in ‘plain text’ or does it store it in proprietary format?

    Thanks,
