# 1.7.0

There is now [a Carbon support mailing list](http://www.freelists.org/list/carbon).

## Enhancements

### General

* Import-Carbon.ps1 now supports the `-WhatIf` switch.
* Import-Carbon.ps1 now hides verbose log messages when removing/importing Carbon even when supplying the `-Verbose` switch because I think the verbose output is too verbose and not helpful at all.
* Import-Carbon.ps1 now supports adding a prefix when importing the Carbon module (with the `Prefix` parameter) to avoid name collisions and [follow best practices](https://blogs.msdn.com/b/powershell/archive/2014/04/07/what-s-in-a-name-using-the-ps-prefix.aspx).

### Certificates

* [Get-CertificateStore](http://get-carbon.org/help/Get-CertificateStore.html) now supports non-standard, custom certificate stores.
* [Get-Certificate](http://get-carbon.org/help/Get-Certificate.html) now supports non-standard, custom certificate stores.
* [Install-Certificate](http://get-carbon.org/help/Install-Certificate.html) now supports non-standard, custom certificate stores.
* [Uninstall-Certificate](http://get-carbon.org/help/Uninstall-Certificate.html) now supports non-standard, custom certificate stores.

## Bug Fixes

### General

* No more silent errors when importing Carbon on Windows 2012 R2.

### Certificates

* [Get-Certificate](http://get-carbon.org/help/Get-Certificate.html) no longer writes a silent error when a certificate does not exist. Instead, no error is written.

### File System

* [Install-Junction](http://get-carbon.org/help/Install-Junction.html) fails when target path is hidden.
* [Test-NtfsCompression](http://get-carbon.org/help/Test-NtfsCompression.html) fails when file/directory is hidden.
* [Test-PathIsJunction](http://get-carbon.org/help/Test-PathIsJunction.html) fails when tested directory is hidden.

### Security

* [Grant-Permission](http://get-carbon.org/help/Grant-Permission.html) fails when item is hidden.
* [Grant-Permission](http://get-carbon.org/help/Grant-Permission.html) doesn't handle non-existent paths, causing cascading errors.
* [Test-Permission](http://get-carbon.org/help/Test-Permission.html) always returns `$false` when testing leaf-level permissions and the `ApplyTo` parameter is provided, i.e. it doesn't ignore inheritance/propagation flags on leaves.
