Multi-Processor Architecture Support
- Multi-Processor Architecture fully supports both x64 (64-bit) and ARM64 architectures. x64 (64-bit) support is compatible with Intel and AMD processors.

What’s New in Glow 26.9:
New Features
- The processor hardware detection engine has been significantly enhanced beyond traditional Intel and AMD architectures. Native support is now available for modern platforms such as Apple Silicon (M-Series) and the newly introduced NVIDIA Spark. In addition, all ARM-based processors can now be accurately distinguished between ARM32 and ARM64 architectures, providing precise hardware reporting. This marks a major milestone for Glow’s hardware detection capabilities.
- The RAM manufacturer identification algorithm has been expanded. JEDEC vendor codes for popular brands such as Patriot, PNY, Team Group, GeIL, Lexar (Longsys), and Asgard/Gloway have been integrated into the database. This significantly reduces the likelihood of incorrect or “Unknown Manufacturer” results and improves overall hardware detection accuracy.
- New Public IP Address and Internet Service Provider (ISP) features have been added to the Network section. To ensure reliability, this information is retrieved from the trusted service ipwho.is. When Hiding Mode is enabled, no requests are sent, and these features remain hidden, as they may expose sensitive information.
- The search engine used in the Installed Drivers, Installed Services, and Installed Applications sections has been enhanced. You can now perform more flexible and accurate searches using initials, partial matches, and loosely arranged character sequences.
- The TS Preloader loading bar has been rebuilt using our modern TS Custom Controls graphics library, developed entirely in-house. As a result of this infrastructure upgrade, the loading bar now features smooth rendering and rounded corners that align with the visual style of Windows 11.
- [TS Updater] A new validation algorithm has been added to check whether the target application is currently running before the update process begins.
Fixed Bugs
- Resolved a condition that could prevent TS Preloader from shutting down safely during rare application crash scenarios.
- Fixed a text alignment issue in the Network section affecting the display of DNS addresses. Alignment is now rendered correctly.
- [TS Updater] Fixed an issue that could prevent the updated application’s executable “.exe” file from being located after the update process. [TS Updater] Fixed a bug that could leave outdated “.sha256” files in the application directory after an update.
- [TS Updater] Fixed a rare issue that could cause subfolders to be moved into the root directory after an update.
- [TS Updater] Fixed an issue during the first launch that could cause flickering and a temporary white window appearance due to Windows Defender interactions.
Changes
- A small improvement has been made to the internet connectivity detection algorithm. Connectivity checks are now performed in the background with minimal impact on the user interface thread.
- The keyboard shortcuts in the top menu have been reorganized and simplified to provide a consistent experience across all Türkaysoft applications and to avoid potential conflicts with standard Windows shortcuts.
- The TS Preloader splash image has been updated with a Türkiye-themed stadium design to celebrate Türkiye’s qualification for the 2026 FIFA World Cup—its first appearance in 24 years. Congratulations, Türkiye!
- The TS Custom Controls module has been updated to version 26.6, delivering improved stability and a more polished visual appearance.
- [TS Updater] The application icon has been redesigned to provide a more modern and refined look.
