Hi Lester,

Presumably, Diskmnt was dropped because it was only meant for the long-gone NT4.  Physmem was a v1.0 utility that didn't run on at least Server 2003, if not earlier.  And, potentially, reghide may perhaps be used for ill.  Not saying that those are the definitive reasons for the changes to the list of included utilities, but they seem to make at least a little bit of sense... Embarrassed

Hi. Today (30 Aug 09) I updated my directory of SysinternalsSuite from 21 May 09. I did a diff:
Files SysinternalsSuite/Clockres.exe and SysinternalsSuite.old/Clockres.exe differ
Only in SysinternalsSuite.old: Diskmnt.exe
Only in SysinternalsSuite.old: Diskmnt.hlp
Only in SysinternalsSuite.old: PHYSMEM.EXE
Files SysinternalsSuite/Procmon.exe and SysinternalsSuite.old/Procmon.exe differ
Only in SysinternalsSuite.old: Reghide.exe
Only in SysinternalsSuite.old: Tcpvcon.exe
Files SysinternalsSuite/Vmmap.chm and SysinternalsSuite.old/Vmmap.chm differ
Files SysinternalsSuite/ZoomIt.exe and SysinternalsSuite.old/ZoomIt.exe differ
Files SysinternalsSuite/autoruns.exe and SysinternalsSuite.old/autoruns.exe differ
Files SysinternalsSuite/autorunsc.exe and SysinternalsSuite.old/autorunsc.exe differ
Only in SysinternalsSuite: procdump.exe
Files SysinternalsSuite/procmon.chm and SysinternalsSuite.old/procmon.chm differ
Files SysinternalsSuite/psexec.exe and SysinternalsSuite.old/psexec.exe differ
Only in SysinternalsSuite: tcpvcon.exe
Files SysinternalsSuite/vmmap.exe and SysinternalsSuite.old/vmmap.exe differ

Is there any reason diskmnt, physmem and reghide were dropped? I.e., these still appear on http://live.sysinternals.com/ .

Thanks.

Lester
