FlashFXP 4.1 BETA build 1612

[cjlive]

I'm not sure if this issue is just happening with me. Last 6 updates give me an error during update and ask me to do a manual update.

Tonight build 1612 gave me same error. Plus when i ran it manually it wasn't able to update pumping out 3 errors regarding the files already exist and did the roll back thing. The roll back deleted an unknown number of files causing the installation to fail. The existing installation also was unable to run.

The 1612 build when run again went through the normal first install thing.

Errors pop up and is failed to read them quick enough and of cause it was unable to replicate.

I haven't come across this during others installs of late so it may be a new under lying issue thats popped up on my system.

Next update i'll punch through it slower for some screenies

Cheers,
Chris

Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I am going to update the update launcher stub for FlashFXP to include the actual error returned by windows along with the error description.

When the installer is launched it first attempts to run it via CreateProcess() API, if this fails with an "Error 740 The Requested Operation Requires Elevation" it tries again using the ShellExecuteEX() API, if this fails then a error message box is displayed instructing the user to run the installer manually.

I'm not sure if the installer is returning an error code on exit or if the API is failing but by displaying the actual error message to the error message box we'll be able to determine the exact reason for the failure.

This change will be included in the next build.

Isn't it time for you to buy FlashFXP? You've been using it for at least a year and you are still unregistered.
