Program Compatibility Assistant shows up after it doesn't work the first time.
Install Manager: Status dialog works
User Account Control comes up every time I run Install Manager

Tools > Migrate Book Library Publicly to Local Machine:
Library has been migrated to: C:/ProgramData/Application Data/Sword/

may now use other SWORD programs with this library

Now all the books I have installed show up.
Dictionary Lookup works.
Unindexed search still works.
Index from other frontends isn 't used.
Creating index on KJV still hangs the program.

Thanks David!

Could you try something for me? With the program closed, could you run InstallManager.exe 
and choose from the menu something like "Migrate Library Systemwide." I can't 
remember the wording right now, but basically there are 2 options for migration. One is a 
local copy of your modules and the other is a systemwide copy.

Remember, this is experimental software. I hope this doesn't screw up your 
other modules. But you can report to everyone else if it does. :)

After the migrate command, close InstallManager, run BibleCS, and let us know 
is some of the bolw problems are fixed.

The installer for this release will probably executed that menu choice behind 
the scenes during install.

Further note: I did a search by Strong number.  It did fine with
unindexed search, but hung in the middle of creating an index for KJV.

Peace,

OK guys, I've been sitting on this for quite some time, mostly not
looking forward to remembering where I left off...

But here the culmination of 3 years of:

o       fiddling - probably fixed or created all sorts of bugs
o       migrating to av11n
o       migrating to play nice in the new world of windows security
o       updating Windows InstallMgr to:
        o       have the ability to autodiscover repositories
        o       install modules in a location which plays nice with
                other SWORD frontends on Windows
        o       and still preserve the ability to create a
                self-contained movable installation-- there are
                options in the InstallManager menus to migrate back
                and forth between the two setups.


Instructions:

You must have a working BibleCS installation already on your system
to
try this beta.

http://www.crosswire.org/sword/software/biblecs/

**** YOU MUST DELETE YOUR locales.d/ folder within your working
installation (or rename it if you might return to the 1.5.11
release).
The SWORD 1.5.x and 1.6.x engine locale formats are NOT COMPATIBLE.

**** PLEASE FOLLOW THE ABOVE INSTRUCTIONS OR YOU WILL BE MOCKED IF
YOU
REPORT CRASH BUGS AND WE DISCOVER YOU HAVE OLD LOCALES PRESENT!!! :)

Download and unzip these files ON TOP of your existing installation
location.


http://www.crosswire.org/sword/ALPHAcckswwlkrfre22034820285912/alpha/BibleCS-1.6.2rc1.zip
To try out av11n, you'll need to manually add the a11n repository to
InstallManager.exe

name: CrossWire av11n Repo
host: ftp.crosswire.org
path: /pub/sword/avraw

Save, go to the tab, hit [Refresh from Remote Repository], and
install
av11n modules.

I'm calling this a release candidate, but really, I'm just looking
for
feedback from anyone whose interested/using BibleCS.  We need to
release
an av11n version, and we now have multiple frontend choices on
Windows
so we need to play nice with others.  These 2 factors are the major
driving force behind this release candidate.

If we can get some feedback that this release is at least as stable
as
the current 1.5.11 release, I'd love to release this soon.


Troy
