vivetool-gui's Issues

ARM64 Support

22000 not supported

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I'm frustrated because there is no list for 22000.675. I don't want to use the Insider Program because I am on a multi-user system (I am an Admin) and it will spam toast notifications on other users.

Describe the solution you'd like
Add 22000 as an option

Describe alternatives you've considered
Use 22449's list

Add support for big screens with hidpi

It's so weird in late 2023 to have a fixed size window containing variable size data (tables, lists, etc.) it looks like something out of the late 90's!
Please let's add support for variable size main window and support for hidpi displays so that system UI scaling happens correctly!

Please add:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

		<add key="DpiAwareness" value="PerMonitorV2" />

Screen Reader Support

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'm always frustrated when having to ask for sighted help to use this GUI. I'm a blind person, so screen readers are vital while using my PC.

Describe the solution you'd like
I'd love to see this GUI having accessibility labels and controls. I personally use NVDA as my screen reader, but accessibility framework don't differ that much.

You can find NVDA here: https://github.com/nvaccess/nvda

Thanks!

How to uninstall this feature?

Add User comments feature

please make a button, that allows users to comment the feature id, like "what does the id unlocks/enable" and "Where to find the new feature,s" and a file upload to add Screenshots, regedit files or scripts to fix things related to the id. all the comments will then be added to the database, and moderators have the option to edit/remove the comments or the files related to it. this will make it more easy for the users to understand what they enables/disables

Explanation/renaming of Feature Scanner function

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
If the user, for whatever reason, wishes to update the list of flags (the features that the program turns on/off), they would first look for a Reload button. Because this is not present in VTGUI (as far as I can see), they might then run the Feature Scanner, which kind of sounds like what they are trying to do, but as I understand it, this feature is not meant to be used by the average user.

(Non-technical users can see warning labels as annoying "things" that need to be ignored and clicked past in order to "make it work", which could be dangerous depending on how dangerous the Feature Scanner is.)

Describe the solution you'd like
Addition of a Reload button, which would reload the available flags.
Renaming of Feature Scanner, or a more dramatic "Warning: Not for the average user" warning when launching Feature Scanner.

[Bug] Error on launch: Microsoft Edge can't read/write

When launching the program, this error appears. The error reappears about 60 seconds later.

VTGUI is completely unable to load the flags (the things that can be turned on/off).

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Launch the program

If the error does not occur, try installing MSEdgeRedirect (system-wide mode, all checkboxes enabled), then restart VTGUI.
Edit: This problem also occurs on an installation that does not have MSEdgeRedirect installed.

Is there a log that I can submit, or something that I can try?

Windows 11 Build 25131 - File Explorer tabs

Hi,

I'm not sure if this app can do it but it's possible to enable the "File Explorer tabs" feature? I've tried searching 'explorer' and 'tab' but nothing came out. If it's out of the scope then no problem.

[Bug] I waited 9 hours for Feature Scanner to complete its search, but it didn't save anything.....

Uninstall Feature Scanner component only?

I mistakenly installed the Feature Scanner component, thinking it was something for average users. It's way out of scope for me, so I'd like to uninstall it. But the only options I see anywhere are to uninstall ViveTool GUI completely. Do I have to do that and reinstall it in order to get rid of that component?

ViVeTool-GUI Feature scanner write access failure of final step

I have an issue with the feature scanner failing at the final step of creating/ transferring final result log after a very long scan session ( that ran flawlessly by the way) I can't give you the actual error code because that would take 12 hours to retrieve that. but it says "write access error" and I scoured my hard drive looking for that document it was nowhere

P.S. I noticed if you run the scan as trusted installer it was successful at scanning items it had failed at using my admin profile.

Possible vivetool gui improvements: feature variants

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
This is related to a function added in the new vivetool command line interface version release. Simply, now the command format is "vivetool /enable /id:[ID number] /variant:# ", and that added in a new function to enable variants of different features like the new search bar.

Describe the solution you'd like
As shown above, I would like to see some sort of way to enable feature variants implemented like the vivetool 0.3 release link to release

Describe alternatives you've considered
There really are no alternatives that I can think of other than using the new command syntax in the command link version.

Additional context
As one example of why this would be useful: here is a few search bars from a past dev build that require that variant tag to enable that specific one: (command for reference: vivetool /enable /id:39072097 /variant:[1-5])
