Why what? Why do I need to have the user download license files? It's a DirectShow based-app with custom filters. Each and the application filter is individually licensed and is signed with a key generated derived from the machine-specific hash. There some 60 licensed components and each one has its own license file. Why the MSI? It's a simple way to package everything up, find where the product is installed, and copy the license files to the product directory. Why a SE zip file? Single file download/installer. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
