Many thanks to the following people, without whom the Mini-WinFE project would not have happened -
synchronicity - wimlib developer. This project has been made possible by the release of this fantastic utility.
Brett Shavers - author of numerous publications. Brett provided the brief for this project and has co-developed it with me. Brett has been a long term advocate for WinFE and continues to promote it's use. Brett also sourced the beta testers for the original release of Mini-WinFE and the more recent 2017-04-27 build, and hosted the closed beta test forum(s).
Mirek Wojtowicz - author of MWSnap. Mr Wojtowicz has kindly allowed redistribution of this screen grab tool - which also doubles as an image viewer for BMP, JPG, TIFF, PNG and GIF file formats.
B.G. Miller - author of a43 and FileManagerPE, the file managers used in this project. Mr Miller has kindly allowed the redistribution of these file managers with the project (FileManagerPE redistribution is allowed anyway, a43 is not - at least the license doesn't mention anything).
Colin Ramsden - author of the Write Protect Tool - see the WinFE script. This utility is redistributed with his permission for non-profit use only
Erwan.l - Erwan has very kindly developed the DiskMgr utility for this project. DiskMgr can be used to toggle disk attributes (between READ-ONLY/READ-WRITE and ONLINE/OFFLINE) and is included in the WinFE script.
Peter Lerup - author of LaunchBar. This utility is redistributed with his permission.
George M. Garner Jr - author of Forensic Acquisition Utilities (FAU). Mr Garner has kindly allowed the redistribution of FAU with this project - FAU remains the property of GMG Systems.
Nuno Brito - creator of WinBuilder and all round nice guy. Board Administrator of the reboot.pro forum on which this project download/support/discussion topic is hosted. Nuno provided the initial hosting for the MistyPE/Mini-WinFE projects.
Thanks also to the authors/developers behind all of the other utilities and programs used in this project. As their licences generously allow redistribution I have not had to contact them individually.
And thanks to the reboot.pro forum members who have provided feedback and made suggestions on the reboot.pro site. This includes (in no particular order, and apologies if I have missed anyone) - farda, TheHive, Wonko the Sane (aka Jaclaz), cdob, Atari800xl and steve6375, PTAHDEL0H0, etc.
A special thanks to alacran - beta tester extraordinaire and MistyPE promoter. alacran has caused me endless hours of work due to his feature requests in the MistyPE project, most of which have been ported to Mini-WinFE. Both projects have developed significantly thanks to his input and suggestions.
Thank you to Brett Shavers and all of the other beta testers involved in the original release of Mini-WinFE. A special mention to the tester who prefers to remain anonymous (you know who you are) for testing and actually providing some feedback - thanks.
Last, but not least, thanks to Brett Shavers and all of the other beta testers involved in the April 2017 release.
