Monty, It seems you're right, it already does all of this, except the localsearches. I'll see if I can fix that today...

Re: [DQSD-Users] ANN: DQSD 3.1.8 goes final!
The installer might already have this behavior, but I dont know offhand... Its been a while since any of this was discussed on the group.. IMO the installer should: Not over-write any local* file if one already exists.. I think the bundle comes with a couple of empty local* files localsearch.css and localprefs.js ? Create the localsearches directory if it doesnt exist. The uninstaller should: Not delete any local* files at all.. Not delete the mrmenu.txt and history.txt files.. Again, I think this is largely the behavior anyway...

Hi Monty, > Does the uninstaller remove the local* files and directory? > I think these are left untouched along with the menu history and the command history > files... Yeah, it does - I thought the same, but I just now accidentally uninstalled DQSD, and lost my local*. I've been thinking that should be fixed, but I wasn't sure if it was by design. > Shouldn't the installer create the localsearches directory if > it doesnt exist? Yes, it might as well, so people don't have to figure out the name of the dir. > What about asking for an install path? Is the C:\Program Files... > directory hardcoded somewhere? ; The default installation directory InstallDir "$PROGRAMFILES\Quick Search Deskbar" This translates into the default Program Files directory of your Windows installation, which is usually C:\Program Files, but C:\Program on a Swedish Windows installation. I definitely think users should be offered a chance to pick install location, but again, I thought it was by design... I'll look into it.

Re: [DQSD-Users] ANN: DQSD 3.1.8 goes final!
Does the uninstaller remove the local* files and directory? I think these are left untouched along with the menu history and the command history files... A couple of questions about the installer: Shouldn't the installer create the localsearches directory if it doesnt exist? What about asking for an install path? Is the C:\Program Files... directory hardcoded somewhere? I typically install applications to my D:\Program Files... directory, but I am not afforded the opportunity to pick a different location in the install process...

RE: [DQSD-Users] ANN: DQSD 3.1.8 goes final!
Hi Ed, I'm not sure (though I probably should be). However, a lot of files have been removed/replaced with others in this version compared to 3.1.6, so for cleanliness, I'd remove 3.1.6 and install 3.1.8 fresh. In case you don't know - to backup your settings, save the following files somewhere: - localsearch.css - localaliases.txt - localprefs.js - localevents.xml - localsearches directory Then you can uninstall DQSD safely, reboot, and reinstall DQSD 3.1.8. Copy the files back into the DQSD install dir, and you should be back to normal.

Re: [DQSD-Users] ANN: DQSD 3.1.8 goes final!
Do we need to uninstall the old (3.1.6 in my case) before installing the new DQSD? --On Sunday, January 18, 2004 8:54 PM +0100 Kim Gräsman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi all, I decided to add Monty's new theme support, hope it serves its purpose well!
