1) Mac OS 8 Compatibility:
According to the publisher, Conflict Catcher v4.0.3 is the first version to be fully compatible with Mac OS 8. It will not allow the Appearance Extension to be disabled and contains Mac OS 8 Sets and Links.
Users of previous versions of Conflict Catcher 4 should download the latest Conflict Catcher 4 updater from Casady & Greene's Web site: "
www.casadyg.com/C&G/updaters.html"
2) Conflict Catcher Mac OS 8 Features:
Includes built-in Mac OS only sets. "Mac OS Base" includes all files which are installed with the Basic Installation. "Mac OS All" includes all files which can be installed as part of the system installation.
Disable Startup Features Option:
This allows the user to disable all of Conflict Catcher¹s features which change the system environment at startup time. To disable these features:
- Choose Preferences from Conflict Catcher¹s Edit menu
- Select "Disable Startup Features"
- Restart the computer
At this point, Conflict Catcher is effectively removed from the system environment, and all of Conflict Catcher's features which involve changing the system environment are disabled.
The disabled features include:
- Showing icon names at startup,
- Auto conflict test for crashes at startup time,
- Conflict Catcher's Finder menu
- Disclosure of startup file memory use and load time
With "Startup Features Disabled," users are still able to manage extensions and run conflict tests. They can enable and disable extensions, run sets (including Mac OS only sets), use links, generate system reports, and run Conflict Tests.
