There's the <nun> thing (no upgrade notice) that you can add to the titlebar template to prevent that from showing.

Isn't that the case with everyone's Titlebar after an update whether it's a beta or not? I then have to go into the Help / Update Registration Details and input the serial number "key" and do a restart, and then the title bar changes to "XYplorer v11.60".
:roll: Does that "updated from x.xx.xxxx" part of title bar bother you THAT much? I barely even notice it and it's gone the next time you start XY anyway so...
It's even gone the next time you go to another folder!

Ok, Ok, I give up! :lol: Sorry, I thought I had to do that to make it disappear and no it wasn't that big a deal. Wow, have I been wasting time especially when you consider all the betas. Good thing I'm retired! I never realized it went away after a restart or like the boss said just simply moving to another folder. :oops: Thanks Marco for the <nun> input in the Titlebar template. By the way, in the old days, did you need to do it? I ask only because I see the code to do that (i.e., getkey, setkey etc) in the old jackie updater script?

Thanks,
Ken

Hi serendipity,

installed and ran it on my desktop machine - great addition (*)!

How about a simple message if no update could have be found, thereby the "else"-path would become GUI-responsive/unambigous as well?

*: Once native XY support for zip/rar is there this script should become a standard add-on!

Sorry, did not understand. You mean if no updates (or XY upto date) there should be a message?
I already have the status message that says you have the latest version.

Oh, I did miss the status message(*). Sorry for confusion!

*: Was a "nightmare" evening. While installing a new video card (decided to enjoy PC-Gaming after a 10 year break) I broke the sata-plug of my system ssd hosting my Win 7. After "quickly" restoring Win 7 to another partition I realized I totally mixed up the boot file records (boot sector, boot manager - simply everything :mrgreen:). Took me hours to reactivate my Win 8 trial on my 2nd ssd.nightmare

Good news!!
Seems like I can use vb script to unzip files (as far as i know all windows have vbscript.dll inbuilt).
This means the need for any third party unzipping is eliminated.

I now unzip files to a temporary location and update XYplorer. The temp file is deleted later.
Can you guys confirm if this is working??
SimpleUpdater.xys
(6.84 KiB) Downloaded 194 times

Code: Select all

//SimpleUpdater
/*
WHY SIMPLE?
1) No configuration, just copy this script to XY's scripts folder, thats it.
2) Uses the inbuilt vbscript.dll to unzip files (no 3rd party unzips required)

HOW IT WORKS:
1) Checks for beta or official release and shows the change log and an option to update.
2) Saves current configuration.
3) Downloads the XY zip file to scripts folder, closes XY (your config is saved already) and extracts downloaded files to XY folder.
4) Restarts XY.
Notes: 
1) temp folder and vbs file is created in XY's script folder which is later deleted. (No junk left behind).
2) If you already have a temp file in xyscripts folder it will be deleted. (change the temp folder location below)
3) As before, everything works as it is, you can change paths below in "User-defined parameters" section

WHAT TO DO:
1) Copy SimpleUpdater script to XY's script folder.
2) To test paste this in address bar: ::load SimpleUpdater;

FYI, there is a command savesettings you can use instead of #182. :)

Thanks! Can't get easier.
BTW, is it safe to assume that all windows are vbs compliant?

Can you write VBS code also for closing every XY and XYcopy window after a delay?

I'll also add a new command Exit to get rid of those #192; ... :)

Yeah, but #192 is not that bothersome.

Close. There should be a way to focus a window and then send an Alt+F4, but never investigated further...
