FIXED. VMFS: the program sometimes froze at startup (while reading data from VMFS).
FIXED. HFS+: in some cases, the program froze while analyzing the file system.
FIXED. XFS: On some systems, the block size was misidentified so the system was either not analyzed at all or analyzed incorrectly.
27.12.2022
