Hi Steven, The issue here is that Jim doesn't know how to create true Windows setup programs using Inno Setup, Nullsoft Installer, Advanced Setup Installer, etc. Therefore he has always resorted to a Winzip Self-Extractor method which has worked well for him up until now. Now, that Microsoft is changing permissions on their directories, having multiple Program Files directories, added User Account Control, etc the old Winzip Self-Extractor method is not up to the task of doing a proper install.
