WholeClear 11.0 Released for Windows and Mac
WholeClear 11.0 is now available with a unified download experience for Windows 10/11 and macOS 12+ (Intel and Apple Silicon). This major update strengthens mailbox migration, conversion, cloud backup, and file-management workflows in one application—with a free trial on both platforms.
We improved IMAP-to-IMAP transfer stability for large mailboxes, including better pause/resume handling during network interruptions and clearer progress feedback during long Microsoft 365 and Gmail jobs.
Mac
Expanded Mac Store Options and Pricing Clarity
Mac customers can now browse dedicated Mac pricing paths more easily, with clearer Windows vs Mac license selection so teams purchase the edition that matches their operating system.
WholeClear Mac builds received broader distribution for Intel and Apple Silicon systems, bringing core conversion and migration workflows to Mac users alongside the Windows edition.
Update
PST File Management Tools Enhanced
Split, merge, compress, and UNICODE upgrade workflows for Outlook PST files were refined for large files, helping admins maintain mailboxes without unnecessary size barriers.
Feature
Address Book Bundle: Split & Merge VCF
Contact management tools were expanded with Split VCF and Merge VCF options, plus common conversions such as CSV ↔ VCF and Excel to vCard for bulk address-book work.
Update
Data Extraction Suite Updates
Attachment, contact, and calendar extraction from PST and related formats was improved so users can free up mailbox space and save contacts to VCF or calendars to ICS more reliably.
Feature
Cloud Backup Format Options Expanded
Webmail backup destinations were expanded so cloud accounts can be saved locally in formats such as PST, EML, MBOX, PDF, and HTML—useful for offline archives and compliance copies.
Update
Windows 11 Compatibility Refresh
Installer and runtime checks were updated for Windows 11, ensuring smooth install and activation for customers moving from older Windows releases.
Feature
Selective Folder Migration Controls
Users gained clearer controls to migrate only selected folders instead of entire mailboxes—helping reduce job time when only specific project or archive folders are needed.
Update
Licensing Delivery Automation Improved
Purchase-to-inbox delivery of download links and activation keys was streamlined so personal, business, and enterprise customers receive credentials faster after checkout.
Industry
Microsoft to Stop Support for Old Office Apps Accessing Microsoft 365 Services
Industry note for customers still using older Office clients with Microsoft 365: Microsoft announced end of support timelines that may affect mailbox access workflows.
As more teams worked remotely, we published clearer guidance for migrating local mail files to cloud accounts such as Microsoft 365, Gmail, and IMAP without requiring every legacy helper tool.
Feature
Pay-for-Desired-Feature Licensing Model Expanded
Customers could select individual conversion or migration tools instead of buying every bundled option—making WholeClear more cost-effective for single-task projects.
Update
Non-English / Double-Byte Character Handling Strengthened
Migration and conversion paths were reinforced for messages and filenames containing Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and other double-byte characters.
Feature
Batch / Folder Mode for Multi-File Jobs
Folder mode made it easier to load multiple files at once for conversion or migration, reducing repetitive single-file runs for large archives.
Update
24×7 Technical Support Coverage Confirmed
Customer support coverage was formalized around-the-clock for installation, activation, and migration troubleshooting across major time zones.
Feature
Local-to-Cloud Email Migration Suite Grows
Support for moving common desktop formats such as PST, EML, MSG, and MBOX into cloud destinations expanded, helping users switch email platforms with fewer manual steps.
Update
Try-Before-You-Buy Trial Experience Improved
Free trial editions were aligned more closely with licensed workflows so customers could evaluate features thoroughly before purchasing.
