-v1.3.1.6 is public
+### v1.3.2.6 is public
 
- Because my old PC was broken, 
-I upgraded my PC and development environment (to Visual Studio 2019). 
-From this version, my products' supporting OS is Windows Vista or later. 
-As I announced ago, v1.3.0.7 becomes the last stable version, which supports Windows XP. 
+  I added a new feature and changed some default behavior in this version. 
+I explain the difference below. 
+Be careful to use them. 
+If you see a strange, odd, or wrong behavior, please report with ease. 
+I will fix as possible as I can.
 
- This version has two bug fix. 
-At first, I fixed a crash bug, which I happened to put in previous version. 
-Though I tried to reduce using memory at seaching slices, the method was bad. 
-I returned to old simple way, which allocates "block size * 3 times" size buffer. 
-Sometimes I made an unknown bug to solve another problem. 
-If someone sees odd behavior or strange result, please report with ease. 
-Thanks to an anonymous helper. 
+  I saw [a question](https://github.com/Yutaka-Sawada/MultiPar/discussions/64) about number of recovery files. 
+Max number of recovery blocks was limited to the max source file size. 
+At old time, this limit was made to be similar to QuickPar. 
+I changed the default setting from this version. 
+In old versions, recovery file size was limited by default. 
+If you wanted to disable the limit, you needed to set larger limit size at `Limit Size to` option. 
+In new version, recovery file size isn't limited by default. 
+If you want to limit, you need to set the limit size at `Limit Size to` option. 
+I added an option `RecoveryFileLimit` on `MultiPar.ini`. 
+If you want to limit recovery file size by the max source file size as same as old versions, 
+add a new line `RecoveryFileLimit=1` in the .INI file.
 
- Another bug was a failure of character encoding, which I found on Windows 10. 
-I never saw such problem on Windows 7, or I was just lucky. 
-It affected only users of multi-bytes characters. 
-While it showed miss-decoded characters in old versions, 
-there was no problem in verification itself. 
-A user might see some odd characters on a file-list. 
-I fixed the bug, and some other slight problems on Windows 10. 
+  While reviewing my old source code, I found an obsolate point. 
+I omitted one step in verification for speed ago. 
+Because recent CPUs are much faster than before, 
+I enabled searching duplicated blocks at simple verification. 
+When you select `Simple verification` at `Verification level`, 
+it may become slightly slow. 
+Most users won't see any difference.
 
- Because I changed whole development environment largely, 
-there may be a compatibility issue. 
-So, this version would be a test of compatibility. 
-When you see a problem, please let me know. 
-I will fix as possible as I can. 
-I plan to refine my code at next version. 
+  I implemented [a new feature](https://github.com/Yutaka-Sawada/MultiPar/issues/74). 
+It tries to repair damaged files by over writing recovered blocks directly. 
+It doesn't make temporary files. 
+To enable the feature, select `Aligned verification` at `Verification level` option. 
+You must understand good and bad points of this mode. 
+Becasue it's testing period still, I may change the behavior in future.
+
+Pros:
+- Fast verification.
+- Fast recovery.
+- Less disk space.
+
+Cons:
+- Backup of damaged files is disabled.
+- Less finding available source blocks.
+- Cannot treat splited source files.
+- Cannot treat additional source files.
+- Cannot treat external source files.
+- Risk of more data loss at failed recovery.
