SimpleActivityLogger v3.0.0 is now available for immediate download.
What’s New?
Logging service
- A complete rewrite to use the Windows Event Log for logging events, rather than a text file.
- Logging of System Startup, Suspend, and Restore, in addition to the existing Shutdown event.
- Logging of Power events.
- Logging of User Presence events and “Away Mode”.
- Logging of activity by SimpleMonitorOff.
- Errors and warnings encountered by the SimpleActivityLogger service are now logged to the ‘Application’ area of the Windows Event Log.
- All events are now logged, regardless of the viewer settings (which are now a filter).
- The Windows System Event Notification Service (SENS) is now only used to detect Screensaver Start & Stop, and Session Reconnect. Everything else now uses more modern technologies.
Viewer application
- Updated look and feel to align with current versions of Windows, making use of the Microsoft Fluid UI and a Ribbon bar.
- On startup, the application now checks that the service is running.
- The About box has had an overhaul, and now displays the version of the application and the service, and also the status of the service.
- Proper HtmlHelp throughout.
- You can now check if there is an update available, either automatically upon startup or manually.
- All settings are now stored in the registry rather than in the settings.ini file, and are stored on a per-user basis.
NOTE: This version drops support for Windows XP, and is compatible with Windows Vista onwards.
