~~Title: Removed Functionality~~
== Directory Opus 13 - Detailed release notes ==
<pageheader/>

  * Flickr sync is no longer supported.
  * Removed support for display of "Compatibility Files" merged into folders below Program Files and similar:
    * This is an outdated concept which File Explorer has also dropped. Dates back to the introduction of UAC in Windows, when a lot of software still stored settings under Program Files. Rarely used today.
    * The `Set COMPATIBILITYFILES` command has been removed.
    * The `Go COMPATIBILITYFILES` command still works (toggles between the normal folder and corresponding Compatibility Files folder).
  * Removed options to make various Opus windows on-top. (With UI adjustments to help. For example, Preferences and Customize can be saved, cancelled or brought to the front via Lister titlebars without having to go back to their windows.)
  * The "slide-out navigation" buttons have been removed.
  * The ability to change the root of the folder tree has been removed. (It generally confused people, and tree contents are now much more configurable, so it shouldn't be needed.)
  * The `Go ROOTTREE` and `Set TREEROOT` commands have been removed - new Folder Tree Contents Preferences make them unnecessary for most people. We may add these back in the future.
  * The `Go LIMITPATH` command and associated functionality to limit a Lister to specific locations has been removed.
  * Support for Windows Vista has been dropped. Windows 7 is the minimum now.
  * Support for 32-bit Windows has been dropped.
  * There is no longer a separate "Light/Lite" (as in simplified) version of Opus. (Light users can still upgrade to 13; the upgrade process will treat them the same as Pro users.)
