Automatic upgrade installs SC to "default" location

#1

Post by amr »

SC 3.1.5125 was installed without "regular" window asking for "options" (location), silent installation is ok - can install use "previous" location?
old 3.1.x was installed into "Z:\astrosoft\SharpCap3.1", 3.1.5125 was installed into "C:\Program Files...."

Can installer use "old location" as base?

Good question - I will look into it for future versions. I expect that it will require a first update that will somehow store the install location then further updates after that would be able to install to the remembered location. It wouldn't work for major upgrades (3.0 to 3.1, 3.1 to 3.2 etc)

cheers,

Robin
