vbscript updater vs. other solution
Hello, On Vista I am using a vbscript solution (with Trevors help) because of the admin rights for the program dir in my automatic updater. As I have posted earlier there are some conditions on some machines, where this vbscript solution fails, where I didn't get around yet, e.g. the message C:\Users\Username has no file extension - no idea what is missing there, never heard of a file extension for a user. Now I remember that there has been a thread on this list where somebody also told about problems with vbscript what was the reason that he changed to another solution. But I can't find that thread anymore. I would be interested in those reasons what was going wrong in his solution and how he solved it.

Re: vbscript updater vs. other solution
Hiya, Is it looking at the 'Username' as a file? Hence the error that it has no file extension? (In the case that the file has been saved with the same name as the 'Username' which would make it confusing...). Cheers, Luis.

AW: vbscript updater vs. other solution
Hi Luis, hmm, interesting theorie. For interpreting the error message, it would make sense. But neither my program handles with such a file in that dir, nor have I seen on my machines any file, beside desktop.ini in that dir. But I'll keep it in mind :) Thanks Tiemo -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: use-revolution-boun...@lists.runrev.com [mailto:use-revolution- boun...@lists.runrev.com] Im Auftrag von Luis Gesendet: Dienstag, 23.
