其他解決方案會挪用第三方（安裝者）的功能，并內置命令行工具，而Visual Patch擁有一個集成的完全可視化的開發(fā)環(huán)境。Visual Patch能自動處理好補丁開發(fā)過程中的復雜細節(jié)，比如：檢查版本，以確定哪些文件已經改變；對每個文件執(zhí)行字節(jié)級的精細差分，以提取不同版本間的差異信息。

• 高性能的二進制差分技術。
  最先進的增量壓縮算法，特別是對于Gbits級的文件，此算法擁有讓人驚異的速度?？煽焖贋榇笪募?chuàng)建小巧的補丁。
• 歷史修補。
  開發(fā)者可決定哪些版本用唯一的執(zhí)行文件進行修補。歷史修補意味著您可用一個補丁文件，將您的任何版本軟件升級到最新版本。
• 完善的版本管理。
  可輕松管理軟件版本。您可以快速輕松地添加、移除和管理產品版本，并查看您文件中的所有重要細節(jié)。
• 自定義用戶界面。
  超過20種不同的屏幕可供選擇，可輕松定義補丁的用戶界面。擁有預定義布局，可執(zhí)行任何任務，并可根據您的需求進行精確的調整。
• 保證100%數據完整。
  補丁只可運行在特定的文件中。運用128比特的MD5哈希效驗碼、CRC-32效驗和以及符合工業(yè)標準的數據加密協(xié)議，保證應用程序和數據免受未經授權的使用、傳輸錯誤等其他威脅。

Unlike other tools that borrow functionality from third-party installers or are built upon command line tools, Visual Patch features a completely integrated visual development environment. Visual Patch automatically takes care of the complicated details of patch development, such as inspecting versions to decide which files have changed, and performing sophisticated byte level differencing on each file in order to extract the differences between versions.

• High Performance Binary Differencing. State-of-the-art delta compression algorithms developed specifically for their impressive speed characteristics, especially for gigabyte-sized files. Create smaller patches for larger files faster.

• Full-History Patching. Gives developers full control over which versions can be patched with a single executable. Full-history patching means you can update any version of your software to the latest release with one patch file.

• Sophisticated Version Management. Makes it easy to manage software releases. You can quickly and easily add, remove and organize product versions, and see all of the important details about your files.

• Customizable User Interface. A library of over twenty different screens makes it easy to control the user interface of your patches. There are pre-built layouts to handle just about any task you can imagine, and it’s easy to adjust them to fit your needs exactly.

• 100% Data Integrity. Patches are only applied to the exact files they’re intended for. Using a combination of 128-bit MD5 hashing, CRC-32 checksums and industry standard data encryption protocols, applications and data are kept safe from unauthorized use, transmission errors and other threats.
