Ok... just a few questions: but when I start HFS and there's no ini file in it's folder... where does HFS find the settings?
it has embedded default settings.
I'm asking this because when I delete it to put a new version, for example, I see it keeps the settings, so are they stored in the registry?
Wouldn't it be better to store them directly in an ini file?
as you can see by yourself, and by the mars reply, HFS lets you choose where to store the options.
registry is used by default, because i consider it more convenient for basic users.
And the information about the the user allowed to access the folder are also saved in the ini file, right?
no, because it's not the account to refer the folders, but folders refer the account.
so, permissions are inside the file system.
But username and password are both encrypted, right?
they are encoded, so you cannot read them easily just having in front of you.
every saved password is not safe if it is stolen.
i will consider using hashes in the future.
HFS cannot be started as service?
no, but there are some softwares that partially compensate for this. search the forum if you are interested.
And the option "Run HFS when Windows starts" is not present in the ini file, however, right?
exactly. HFS search the start up folder (esecuzione automatica) for a link named "hfs".
Thanks a lot for your work! HFS solved my problems to transfer files! It's a fantastic program!
prego, e benvenuto
