Change Log

Notable changes to the PhoenixPE project.

Release 2022-12-25

Added

  • Added Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office script
  • Added an option in Explorer script to change the default folder icon view
  • Added the ability to login/switch to Administrator
  • Added ChrisR's SetWG.exe to reliably set the computer Workgroup for PhoenixPE
    • This is useful for things such as Switch to Admin, as we still need a workgroup set even if we don't run PENetwork.

Changed

  • Added a comment to the Acronis True Image script that the program has been re-branded by the author
