SetupBuilder 2016 Version 10.0 Build 4921 (September 29, 2015)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

FIX : IDE: Under certain circumstances, the compiled application
reported a '[1] Startup loader error' and terminated or GPFed.

FIX : [SB#5-09291] IDE: The "#create folder..." compiler directive
terminated the compilation process when the folder already
existed. If the folder specified already exists, the function
is skipped.

FIX : IDE: Long-term bug in the "Enable Web Update" function. Under
certain circumstances, the compiler did not initialize the
encrypted Username/Password item (improved fix).

CHANGE : IDE: SB10 Build 4920 introduced a new error handling method to
terminate the compilation process when a PreProcessor failed.
Revert to the method used in previous SB versions.

SetupBuilder 2016 Version 10.0 Build 4920 (September 28, 2015)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

NEW : Enhanced built-in support for Windows 10 (Kernel version 10
"RTM").

Framework 4.6" (x86, x64).

NEW : Add "Pin to Start (Win10) or Start Screen (Win8.1)" option to
the 'Shortcut Properties'. It lets you add application tiles
to the Windows 10 Start menu and pin applications to the
Windows 8.1 Start screen. Windows 10 has returned the Start
button to its original place: the lower-left part of the
screen. Aside from the familiar feel of the Start menu,
Microsoft has fused live tiles into the feature, giving it both
a classic and fresh look.

NEW : Add "Pin to Taskbar (Win7+)" option to the 'Shortcut
Properties'. It lets you pin a program directly to the taskbar
so users can open it quickly and conveniently, rather than
looking for the program in the Start menu or the Start screen.

NEW : Add "Application ID" to the 'Shortcut Properties' to set the
Application ID of a shortcut. If used, the ID must be provided
in the following form. It can have no more than 128 characters
and cannot contain spaces. Each section should be camel-cased.

Taskbar items.

Microsoft Authenticode compatible time stamp and RFC 3161
compliant trusted time stamp servers.

NEW : IDE: A project save process stores the version and build number
of the IDE in the project file.

NEW : Installer: If the end of a status text string in the "Progress
Dialog" does not fit in the rectangle, it is truncated and
ellipses are added. If a word that is not at the end of the
string goes beyond the limits of the rectangle, it is truncated
without ellipses. It replaces characters in the middle of a
file status text string with ellipses so that the result fits
in the specified rectangle. If the string contains backslash
(\) characters.

NEW : IDE: After installation and at first IDE startup, SetupBuilder
can automatically detect the previous Version 8 configuration
settings and offers to copy them over to SetupBuilder 10.
