I’m more intrigued by the ‘Super Secret App’. You should not have even mentioned that, LOL.

We’re a curious lot here and I’d take some pills for your headache…which is yet to come!

Guys I think it’s great. One more thing - every time I make an update I have to manually end my explorer.exe process (if I don’t, it will think for a long time and then ask me to do so) and then reinitiate it.
Are you benchmarking on Vista/win7 with UAC activated?

Yeah, it took 65 sec on Win7 w/ UAC, with clicking on dialogue boxes instantly, on very fast computer with 4 Mbs connection… we will see how it goes with new update system ;-).

As to the explorer.exe, thats feature of Windows Restart Manager, something is wrong with yours then… definetly not an perfect Windows feature but it is better than what we had before (which was nothing). Not sure how will this be influencing it, as we will be accessing restart manager directly, instead of through Windows Installer.

This will make life allot easier! maybe we could have background update… where if selected by the user PowerArchiver updates to the latest Beta or Full release and installs in the background ready for the next restart.

well this should take seconds ;-).

@blog:

It took around 65 seconds until PowerArchiver 2010 11.60 was installed and running again (upgrade from PA 2007)

So, who was still running PA 2007 :eek:

Incremental update - Yes
Parallel/One-Step update - Yes

No mention of update option for shell menu (yet) :p

P.S. would this also update for “patches” like

Excellent, I like it when a program does that. I like the web update GUI too, great idea. You are spoiling us. :)
