I have made changes to it which should have fixed all these problems (the uninstallation one will be because of the installation issue I think).<br><br>I&#39;ve been wondering whether I should package up another release for it.  Are we having a 0.47pre3 release, guys?  If so, I&#39;ll wait for that, if not, I may merge the changes since 0.47pre2 back into that and rebuild the installer.<br>
<br>Thanks for your testing, Jon :-)<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Sep 10, 2009 at 12:27 AM, Jon <span dir="ltr">&lt;<a href="mailto:jon.forums@...400...">jon.forums@...400...</a>&gt;</span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
I just tried uninstalling to check whether the uninstaller would delete my theme customizations in etc, lib, and share when it uninstalled it&#39;s core files, and ran into the following problems.<br>
<br>
FYI, the original installation was into E:\Inkscape<br>
<br>
1) Installer appeared to be deleting files and at the end of the process pop&#39;d a dialog asking if I wanted to delete &quot;E&quot;.  Obviously as E is one of my partitioned &quot;drives&quot; I said no.  Don&#39;t really know what the uninstaller would have done, but this appears serious.<br>

<br>
2) Likely due to my &quot;no&quot; answer in (1), it doesn&#39;t appear any files were deleted by the installer.<br>
<br>
<br>
Note that the original install did not go smoothly as I first tried to have the installer install to a non-empty directory containing my theme customizations.  Once the installer squawked that it couldn&#39;t install to a non-empty dir, I manually deleted my customizations (while the installer was still running) and then was able to get the installer to continue by clicking the Cancel button (I think) many times until it continued.<br>

<br>
It may be that the original installation snags are to blame for.<br>
<br>
However, this is an example of why I initially avoid installers like the plague until they prove that they will not degrade my system.<br>
<br>
Please, please, please continue to provide the 7z&#39;s at the same time as the installers :)<br>
<br>
I&#39;ll check out the next release of the installer when it comes out to see how it handles installing to an existing dir with theme customizations.<br>
