Adds a "Threads" setting to the UI, allowing users to control the throttle limit for parallel tasks like driver and application processing.
This introduces a new textbox in the build options and updates the parallel processing function to use this configurable value instead of a hardcoded one.
Input validation is also added to ensure the threads value is a valid integer and is at least 1. The new setting is integrated into the configuration save/load functionality.
Adds a feature to automatically save the selected drivers to `Drivers.json` upon download, preserving the user's selection for future use.
Improves script execution by:
- Ensuring the disk cleanup process completes before proceeding.
- Suppressing progress bars globally for a cleaner console output.
- Hiding non-critical warnings during driver installation.
- Removing an unused BITS transfer function and trailing whitespace.
Adds a `DriverMapping.json` file to automate driver injection during image deployment.
Driver download tasks now generate or update this mapping file with the relative path for each successfully downloaded driver package.
The deployment script now uses this file to automatically detect and select the correct drivers for the target hardware, removing the need for manual selection. The manual driver selection prompt is retained as a fallback.
Updates the download function to source selected drivers from the complete data model instead of the UI's filtered view.
This corrects an issue where selected drivers would be excluded from the download operation if they were hidden by a filter.
Moves the Dell catalog download and preparation logic from the individual driver download task to the parent function.
This prevents a race condition where multiple parallel tasks would attempt to download and extract the same catalog file simultaneously. The catalog is now prepared once before any driver downloads begin, improving efficiency and reliability.
Additionally, comments out manual garbage collection calls in the VM build UI.
Extracts the driver download implementation from the button click event handler into a new `Invoke-DownloadSelectedDrivers` function.
This change improves code modularity and maintainability by separating the business logic for downloading drivers from the UI event handling code. The event handler is now simplified to a single function call.
Extracts the model fetching and UI update logic from the button's click event handler into a new, reusable `Invoke-GetModels` function.
This refactoring improves code organization by separating UI event handling from the core application logic, leading to better readability and maintainability.
Refactors the driver selection UI to enhance stability and performance by changing how the underlying data source is managed. Creating and re-assigning a new list when data changes, rather than modifying the bound collection in-place, prevents UI inconsistency errors.
- Updates the model search to use the native WPF `CollectionView.Filter` for more efficient and reliable filtering.
- Fixes an issue where HTML entities were not decoded in Microsoft driver model names.
- Ensures selected drivers from one manufacturer are preserved when fetching models for another.
- Centralizes driver-related button event handlers into the core initialization module.
Renames functions for better semantic clarity:
- `Refresh-WindowsSettingsCombos` becomes `Initialize-WindowsSettingsCombos` to better reflect its role in initial UI setup.
- `Filter-DriverModels` becomes `Search-DriverModels` to more accurately describe its use in user-driven model searches.
Enhances code readability in the UI script through consistent formatting of event handlers and multi-line script blocks.
Relocates driver-specific download, parsing, and management logic from the main UI script and the FFUUI.Core module into new, dedicated modules for each manufacturer (Dell, HP, Lenovo, Microsoft). This improves modularity and code organization.
Additionally, centralizes common HTTP headers and user agent strings in the FFUUI.Core module, accessible via a new helper function.
