Re: MSI Installation
Hi Johannes! Ye ;-) Especially if you have to uninstall an MSI-enabled beta to install another MSI-enabled beta *g* Well, that won't happen anymore I guess... But here the WI mechanism is quite nice. If you update first all files are copied and if there are files deleted from the installation, these are deleted from the disk. So a minimum of file operations is needed. -- Regards, Raymund Current beta is 3.00 Beta/1 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/

Hello Ian! On Sunday, June 13, 2004 at 12:35:55 AM you wrote: I could probably have deleted the key while in the registry. Surely, didn't know you are comfortable enough in the registry to find your way around and rename entries. Instead of renaming you could as easily and with adverse effects have hit Del. BTW, read that tip a few weeks ago, if you want to get rid of all the MS patch entries in the uninstaller window, you can delete the packages and then try to uninstall them. Windows can't find the necessary info and will ask you to delete the entry itself. This should also work, I think, if you move uninstall info somewhere else. Caveat: Don't try this at home, kids! And don't hold me responsible if your system doesn't do what it should afterwards. -- Dierk Haasis The Bat 2.11.04 on Windows XP 5.1 2600 Service Pack 1 Chat info for ICQ, AIM, MSN, Yahoo, Jabber upon request Love is the answer ...

Hello Dimitry! On Saturday, June 12, 2004 at 9:24:23 PM you wrote: All these nasty workarounds for something that an installer is supposed to do... Alas, this is an extremely typical example of the Windows Installer engine. Simply wrong as can be seen from the messages Maxim wrote about this specific problem. It is *not* an error in MSI but a half-way implementation by RITLabs, one of the things they wanted to find during this beta. For the people that don't get it yet: I hate MSI installers. Thanks for the info, don't know how I could have lived without it. They always tend to corrupt themselves, asking for the .msi file at the most unexpected moments, failing to reinstall, uninstall or upgrade software for any number of extremely technical reasons. It always requires heavy registry editing to totally get rid of them, so can attempt to reinstall a damaged software package. Sorry, but (and I usually am not a big fan of MS' software) I've yet to see a problem with MSI. Had much more trouble with other installers, Ghost for example. -- Dierk Haasis The Bat 2.11.04 on Windows XP 5.1 2600 Service Pack 1 Chat info for ICQ, AIM, MSN, Yahoo, Jabber upon request Jede gute Tat zieht ihre Bestrafung nach sich.

Re: MSI Installation
Hello Ian! On Saturday, June 12, 2004 at 11:26:21 PM you wrote: I downloaded this, only which one do you delete in RegCleaner? Is it sorted in the same way as in Add or Remove Programs? Right clicking and picking Advanced shows the same registry key. Know what you mean, had the same decision dilemma. that's why I asked for a more informative entry by RITLabs. In my set-up the first TB entry in the software uninstall window was the old one, as was reflected in RegCleaner. So, it was the first entry I chose. The worst thing that could happen to you is that you clear the wrong one and have to find the uninstaller info manually. I am not sure but think a re-run of the installer with the option Repair chosen should bring back the correct entry. Be sure to delete the remaining, wrong entry before the re-run. -- Dierk Haasis The Bat 2.11.04 on Windows XP 5.1 2600 Service Pack 1 Chat info for ICQ, AIM, MSN, Yahoo, Jabber upon request When you lose, don't lose the lesson.
