yeah I use 7zip
I didn't care for winzip's registration system having to basically
buy another version every time you upgraded!
for a while I cracked it but after I started using other networks
for admin and the ribbons in winzip came along I realised that it was
becoming tiresum.
I had to 1 get wizip from a torrent or the download.
2. find a cradck serial.
3. load it.
by chance people someone anyway recomended 7zip and I don't know why
I even used winzip now.
its free and fast and to be honest if you are going to use an
extracter in anything 7zip has the speed it can also create a few
filetypes for different oses including linux rpm and tarball gzip packages.
its cross platform and small and can run on just about any os in
existance even win98-95 and probably earlier.

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
