Windows Defender can detect ReqEdit.exe as a malware / troian based on !ml (AI) detection algorithm, this is a false positive, exclude or allow this app.

• Wizard settings will be reset to default when clicking BACK and NEXT
• Purge multiple rows only the first one is purged.
• DNG type URI editing of specobjecttype and specificationtype is not yet supported.
• Printing tables with rowspan produces wrong table.
• On ReqEdit closing there may be a noticeable delay caused by Windows Antimalware Detection Service due to scanning old files that could be cleaned by automatic cleanup (in ReqEdit temp folders)

NOTES / KNOWN ISSUES:

HTML import – import quality depends a lot on the html code structure, use basic HTML as much as possible, do a cleanup before import if possible

Cut-copy-paste, promote, demote multiple rows at once – can give unexpected results, please save document before operations

Pasting large amounts of html / content above 32000 characters could have problems on other RM tools when importing the ReqIF file

Comparing DNG ReqIF files is not supported, compare works only with ReqEdit imported files

When working with large ReqIF files and the backup is enabled, the application can become unstable, deactivate periodic backup to improve the stability.

Opening ReqIF files over 10.000 objects can take a long time.
