EXE description

Post by krzysiu »

Hello,

Could you make different EXE description block (I think it's how it's called) for free and commercial version? Distinguishing versions by filename is not as reliable as description. It would be better for tools like SuMo* to check which version is used. I'm using free version and exe description is the same as commercial. Newest free version is 15.00.0500 and commercial is 15.10.0000, so by checking exe descriptions I should update your tool, but in fact my version (XYFree 15.00.0500) is the newest. I hope I'm clear.

I know it's an offtopic, but thank you very much for such highly customizable tool and in its class the only that fits me in 100% :)

Everything the best,
Krzysztof Blachnicki

* I think it's right now most popular tool for checking new versions of software

Hi and welcome!

The fields "InternalName" and "OriginalFilename" in the file version info can be used to distiniguish both.
