- 0000109: Provide API access to the Wow64FsRedirection functionsThere are times when modules need to read from files or the registry, and when they do, they need to temporarily disable file system redirection, if they are on a 64bit os. While module developers could easily copy the LSDisableWow64FsRedirection and LSRevertWow64FsRedirection code from the core, it might be a good idea to provide API functions for them so that they don't accidentally call Wow64DisableWow64FsRedirection directly (since it wont work on all systems).
- 0000110: Unable to open folders on some systems with the current version os LSExecute/ExFor some reason, when file system redirection is disabled, which it currently will be on all x64 systems, calling ShellExecute/Ex with a directory path results in nothing happening.
- 0000066: Changes to global environment variables have no effectChanges to environment variables via sysdm.cpl don't propagate to LiteStep or its child processes.
- 0000039: Shortcuts to 64-bit progams broken when running in WOW64On 64-bit Windows there are both 32-bit and 64-bit binaries for some programs like IE, Media Player, or Calculator, in "Program Files (x86)" and "Program Files", respectively. A 32-bit Litestep cannot currently invoke shortcuts to the 64-bit versions because ShellExecuteEx appears to read out FOLDERID_ProgramFiles from the .lnk, which resolves to "Program Files (x86)" for 32-bit processes. Thus the 32-bit versions are launched. Note that if only a 64-bit version exists it is launched all the same.
- 0000108: ShDocVw.ShellWindows / CreateObject("Shell.Application").Windows does not workIt is not possible to retrieve the list of windows from the shell using ShDocVw.ShellWindows or CreateObject("Shell.Application").Windows http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb774094%28VS.85%29.aspx [^]
- 0000070: 64-Bit startup items are not runOn 64-Bit versions of Windows, some registry keys exist as separate 32-Bit and 64-Bit versions. Currently, LiteStep only parses those that are in the 32-Bit registry branch and consequently skips the 64-Bit keys.
- 0000060: Open Containing Folder in Search does nothingIn explorers search results view, choosing "Open Containing Folder" from the context menu while running LS does nothing. Launching the file, and viewing the actual folder path works as it should.
- 0000061: The "Status" page for network connections doesn't work while using litestep.Trying to open the "Status" page in Control Panel -> Network Connections doesn't do anything while running LS.
- 0000077: Folder Options cannot be opened from Control PanelThe control panel item "Folder Options" is broken when LiteStep is running. Clicking it has no effect.
- 0000053: The "Find Target" button in shortcut properties doesn't work while using litestep.The "Find Target..." button in shortcut properties doesn't work while using litestep.
