Updated to v7u72, improved, (removed stylish gui because the project files were lost, I had to make it all over again, now normal GUI), added 64-bit version too.

yeah, now that I am a more advanced member, I understood that I hadn't repacked properly. The setup does a much more than I thought before. So this repack is now discontinued. I may make a new repack of avast free av 2015, when I get time (probably next month)

Thanks for understanding. You are right that there is not a "rule" about if, but it is rather board/net etiquette or courtesy. If the original Addon maker is no longer active on the board, or if he gives you prior permission, or he asks for help when he is having a problem either with the Addon or in RL, then those would all change the situation. Other boards or even other Addon makers might react differently to the "competition", but not here in this case. Another situation where I think it is perfectly appropriate to post an alternate solution is if there is a difference in application, in other words if one is a Switchless Installer and the other is an Addon. But even then I would hope the two developers would talk and cooperate with each other to make sure they both understand what the other's intentions are, and different threads should be used. Or if substantial suggestions are made in the thread about ways to modify/improve the Addon and the original Addon maker specifically declines to incorporate the changes for his own reasons, then I think it is appropriate to start a new thread with the alternate solution and let the community decide which version they prefer. But remember, hopefully you will be prepared to support your version for an extended period of time, especially if the original Addon maker decides to withdraw his version. Cheers and Regards

@Kormann, IMHO, yes IT IS A MAJOR PROBLEM to do what you did. Reaper has provided this Addon for over five years and last updated this Addon only a month ago, and he is still active on this site. Just because there have recently been a couple of minor updates to the app does not mean he has to update the Addon for each one, no matter how many posts have been made notifying him of available updates. In the past, when others have updated Reaper's Addons without his prior permission, Reaper has taken the approach "Fine, if the other guy wants to make the Addon then that's one less Addon I have to make." and he then pulled his own version and never updated it again, even after the other guy later removed his version. So unless you are prepared to maintain your update for the next five years or more, then just be patient and wait for Reaper. And to post your version in his thread is the absolute height of rudeness. I have moved your post to the trash. If you want to send any of your work to Reaper via PM as a favor to him to hopefully make it easier for him to keep up the many Addons he maintains for the benefit of all of us, then please do so. If he decides to use your work in any way, then it is up to him to decide that. If he decides to incorporate any of your suggestions, I'm sure he will give you proper credit. I realize you had good intentions, and it looked like you did a good job and maybe even made some improvements to the Addon, but please be more respectful of all the hardworking Addon developers on this board. If you end up making any unique Addons that you are willing to share here, and I hope you do, I will zealously defend your work just as vigorously as I am defending Reaper's. I hope you understand. I also encourage you to provide suggestions in the threads of how any of the existing Addons can be improved, but don't post a completed Addon unless it is requested by the original Addon maker. Cheers and Regards

version 3.1 What's new:

As I also liked this Idea, I have made the following changes: - Don't delete the Favorite entry (I do see the point in doing so, you'll have Downloads twice in the default Explorer, but as I'm used to find it in the Favorites I'd like to keep it) - I kept the Public Downloads Folder in the Library, because it (probably) makes sense to provide "public" downloads on a multi-user-system (just like public Documents etc.) - repackaged it with a smaller 7zSFX and SFX-Icon and made it super-silent - uploaded it to MediaFire MD5 Hash: 55401bc471bcdf1e21effe4b33ba7f5c Size: 168kB (172.814 bytes) Download: http://www.mediafire.com/download/wax0n8p9c7ce2m2/Add.Downloads.to.Win7.Libraries.exe Attention: This is my first contribution here, so please test it in a secure environment first or you might lose your hair :newhere:
