- New: Support for Amazon S3 ACL’s. You can now edit permissions on S3 files. There is also an option to preserve S3 ACL’s when doing renames and overwrites on S3 files.
- New: Support for Amazon S3 COPY command to use for renaming files and folders. The folder rename still requires a copy command to be sent to the server for all files in the folder.
- New: Directory Change notification support. When enabled on the site properties/file settings dialog tab WebDrive will support the Windows change notification feature that Windows explorer signs up for when displaying the contents of a folder. WebDrive will poll the server to see if the directory has changed on the server and if a change is detected it will cause explorer to refresh it’s contents. This works well for protocols that support reporting the modified time of a folder on the server, like WebDAV and SFTP. This may not be very effecient for FTP servers that do not support the MLST command.
- New: SFTP FIPS support.

- Fixed: Performance improvement when right clicking on files or folders in explorer which gets rid of long delays with no activity.
- Fixed: Directory caching issue that would result in the directory not refreshing when it became invalid due to it being out of date with the listing on the server.
- Fixed: If a persistent connection (connect at login) can’t connect during login then don’t display error dialog and don’t prompt for username/password as this can interfere with the vista login. Instead the drive will show up with a red X icon and when the user clicks on the drive it will attempt to connect again. This can also be beneficial to wireless installations where the network may not be established at login time.
- Fixed: For FTP servers fixed a rename problem when using UTF8 encoding, the destination file name was not being encoded in UTF8.
- Fixed: Potential security vulnerability, removed permission on WebDrive service that would allow a change configuration command.

- Fixed Save As issue in excel/word when “cache temporary files” was enabled and the user selected to create a new folder in the save as dialog for excel/word and the folder was named with all numbers, i.e. 2009 then Word was unable to save the file because WebDrive treated the folder creation as a temporary file.
- Fixed issue in 8.23 for DAV and uploading large files using the setting “Enable chunked upload for large files” which is on by default. Many servers do not support chunked file upload and in version 8.23 when this setting was enabled it uploaded all files rather than just files larger than 1 GB. Version 8.24 resets to the previous webdrive behavior of uploading in chunked mode for files grater than 1 GB.
- Fixed hang issue that could freeze explorer and the system, seen most often on Vista SP1 but could happen on other systems as well.
- Fixed IIS / NTLM authentication issue that resulted in errors renaming or uploading files when using Auto DAV locking on persistent connections.
- Fixed Offline synchronization issue when editing a word file offline and then performing a synchronize operation that resulted in a “Server modified copy” file being created when the file was not actually modified on the server by another user.
- Fixed Offline issue where folders or files that were previously marked offline could lose their status as “offline” files.
- Added support for French FTP servers that don’t support the MLSD command. Webdrive can now parse the unix date listing that contains month names in french.
- Changed auto dav lock behavior to NOT take out a DAV lock when an application is doing byte range locks if the file extension is not in the user supplied extension list.
- Changed FTP symbolic link resolve logic to use the link name instead of the path when determining if a link is for a file or folder.
