Update Checker
These options allow for the configuration of the update checking system.
Proxy
- Use HTTP proxy server - When engaged, this switch causes the update checker to use an HTTP proxy server.
- Address - The host name or IP address of the HTTP proxy server.
- Login - If your proxy server requires authentication, enter your login username here (otherwise leave this field blank).
- Password - If your proxy server requires authentication, enter your login password here (otherwise leave this field blank).
- Port - The port of the HTTP proxy server (common values include 80, 8080, etc.).
Note: When using proxy authentication, FolderSizes will automatically determine the proxy authentication mode. Supported authentication modes are Basic, Digest, and NTLM.
Other Options
- Automatically check for updates when FolderSizes starts - When enabled, this option causes FolderSizes to check for newer version availability (in a background thread) when the application starts up. If a newer release is found, a small system tray area window will appear to notify the user.
