What is this new folder "EdgeCore" now found in the install location, it's almost identical to the actual Edge files, and after removing/deleting this "EdgeCore" folder, everything still works as always, so what the purpose of it? All it does it seems is to bloat the install size.

Can only find questions, but sadly no answers...

Thanks for the update notice. :)

Maybe the release notes will be of interest. Lots of new files to be uploaded to the HitmanPro cloud for whitelisting so we'll see.
