Diealtekoenig -> Possible Solution to True Update Problem (12/1/2002 2:10:56 AM)
|
I am not sure if this is the cause of the problem (there may be more than one) but are the people having trouble running WinXP?
Many people with WinXP, including me, have an Administrator User and an "Ordinary" User, and usually are logged on as the "Ordinary" user with reduced privileges (to keep busybody programs from rearranging things you don't want rearranged)
When I first tried to update to the new version I was logged to my machine as an Ordinary User and the v2.10 Update file gave me an error message it could not create some text file "Uncommon Valor Setup Log.txt. However after giving me that message it did then proceed to offer me the ability to run the upgrade anyhow.
I decided not to run the upgrade, logged off, logged on as Administrator, ran the update file and did NOT get the error message when logged on with full Administrator privileges. After installing v2.10 True Update works fine (before that it kept trying to re-download v2.00. 9I got version 2.10 straight from the FTP site))
I realize there may be more going on, but is the problem that True Update looks at that file: Uncommon Valor Setup Log.txt and that file cannot be updated if the user is logged on under Win XP in an account without full priveleges?
