  • Application and service process names

  • Updated MDM configuration file

Application support directories, which include logs and cache directories, are NOT changing as they had already been labeled with CrashPlan branding. For a complete list of details, see CrashPlan app version 11.0 changes to application and service names.

  • Performance and stability improvements.
  • Improvements to logging.
  • Security updates.
