Latest version

What’s new in 1.0.2.

Version 1.0.2
  • New: The Microsoft Visual C++ runtime now ships inside the folder, so Zin Tasks starts on a fresh Windows PC
  • New: If a Windows part is still missing, Start says so and links to the free download from Microsoft
  • Fix: Reminders now arrive while the planner window is minimised, as long as Windows notifications are allowed
  • Change: Moving to a new computer is now one email. The app and the README say so, and the licence check is harder to copy
  • Fix: README corrections for the calendar (a week view), Settings and areas
  • Fix: Times and reminders now follow your computer's clock, and every time shows as 12-hour AM/PM (4:22 PM)
  • New: Setting a time is easier. Type the hour and minutes in two boxes (the colon is built in) and tap AM or PM
  • Fix: If you skip AM or PM, the likely one is picked (4:58 means PM, 9:00 means AM), and a task moved to a new time reminds you again
  • Change: Reminder cards in the planner are bigger and stay until you close them
  • New: Settings shows where to turn on Windows notifications if no pop-up appears

How to update

Three steps, a minute.

  1. 01Close the planner

    Double-click Stop.bat in the Zin Tasks folder. If the browser tab is still open, that is fine.

  2. 02Unzip over the folder

    Extract the new zip into the same Zin Tasks folder and say yes to replacing files. Your database, settings and licence are in files the zip never contains.

  3. 03Start it again

    Double-click Start.vbs. The first start brings your database up to date on its own. If that ever fails it says so and changes nothing.
