Using something like winzip as a extractor would just be a change in parameters. no VB code would be effected at all, because it doesn't handle the install.

Hi Jim,
I thought you were going to move all your games to be inside the documents folder under kitchensinc, so that is what I did. I moved all your files in that folder and by editing the kitchens inc games item in my programs list to point to the correct place, all of them play fine in that folder. I know it would take lots of re-writing your installers to get all of your games to install there but it might help in the long run.

Hi Phil,

Again I thank you for the code and for testing that little newpaths program. But the code, and newpaths, program were just for having my games write their text files to the documents\kitchensinc folder, not installing the games.

Truthfully I don't even know where games should go in Windows 98, XP, Vista, 7 and 8. And if there is an installer that would work for them all, lets see, I would need to start with winkit to install the game menu system and then change all of my games all at once to go to the new, game menu system folder. When I started the whole game menu system thing, one thing that it did was to save me at least a meg per game install as the self extracting zip files do not include all of the files that the winkit install does. And I do very much still like all of my games under one game menu launcher system thing.

BFN

    Jim

Go ahead and put all your eggs in one basket.
