This and the failure to clean out all files automatically by The Bat! when making a fresh install are two reasons I hope you will have time to report these deficiencies in OTFE-installations on TBBETA and make a bugtracker issue report of each one. Although it would be technically OT to the beta list, it's relevant to beta development. The RitLabs team is currently working toward v. 3.82, according to the beta download page. It would be well for them to clean up the faults of OTFE before the next release to the public. Marck has agreed that it would be appropriate to post on TBBETA the failure to remove all files in an Uninstall of a copy of TB! which has OTFE enabled. So, when you have the time, I hope you'll be able to do this much, at least. > Thanks for your help and encouragement. Your problem very much engaged my attention!

I'll do a search of the TBBETA archives to jog my memory. If it's fixed in a beta, would you want to run one? V. 3.81.14 is quite stable for me, running two POP3 accounts in a Pro version, with OTFE *not* installed. -- Best regards, Mary The Bat! 3.81.14 Beta on Windows XP 5.1 2600 Service Pack 2 ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.80.06 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
