Process Killer NG 2.0.0

[atauenis]

The stable release of Process Killer NG 2.0.

Changes from Beta 2:

• Implemented functionality of the "Restart Shell" button. It is working identically to same in the old Process Killer 1.4.2.
• To prevent accidental closing opened Explorer windows, it is now possible to disable the "Restart Shell" button.
• Implemented "Run" dialog box history.
• Implemented tooltips in settings window
• Implemented configuration for each keyboard hot key.
• The program now can be added to system autorun with administrator rights too.
• Fixed error message when two users on same PC are using Process Killer NG at same time.
• Fixed incorrect 64-bit process detection.
• Fixed running applications with multiple command line arguments via "Run" dialog box.
• Fixed unwanted label overlap over controls in Settings form.
• Fixed Tab-stops and Enter, Esc keys work in dialog boxes.
• Fixed path of language files, so if the program is running from removable device, it will don't write hard-coded full path into configuration file.
• Now two languages are built into default package: English, and Russian.

Key changes from 1.4.2 by __alex:

• Supports only Windows 7 and up (32-bit, 64-bit). Optimized for Windows 8.1 (64-bit) and up.
• No support for Windows 98/XP/Vista. SP1 is required to run on Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2.
• Default hot key is Ctrl+Shift+1 , however you may set up Ctrl+Shift+~ via Settings window. Every keyboard button is configurable in Process Killer NG.
• You may set up a confirmation for "Restart Shell" button action.
• The "Restart Shell" button is always killing the shell process, and there is no option to disable this (it were actual only on Windows 9x).
• Unlimited history in Run dialog box. Ctrl+[OK] in Run dialog is starting an application without save to history.
• Multilanguage support, new configuration file syntax, a bit different dialog boxes.
• Total threads count does not displaying in title bar.
• Currently does not displaying processes with big CPU load (the <*> icon).
• Currently does not removing "dead" icons from taskbar notification area after killing a process with such icons. Just point over them mouse, and they will disappear.
• Probably some other changes, as the NG version is written from scratch by other human.
