Hi there, this update effects only the Windows installation and uninstallation, which finally will be able - thanks to Gil Barmwater! - to remove the "BSF4ooRexx" directory. Elevation is now done again with ooRexx only, again kudos go to Gil!
So, if you have Windows, any version, please download and test this version (install, reinstall, uninstall) and in case of any problems, please report them! Here is the URL where the latest (this) beta version can be found: <http://sourceforge.net/projects/bsf4oorexx/files/beta/20150608/BSF4ooRexx_install_v452-20150825-beta.zip/download> ---rony On 13.08.2015 17:31, Rony G.
