quick fix posted v0.517 -fixed broken links for 2.0.0.x optimized versions of Firefox.

The same occurs with some of the French strings. Do the translation and I will make changes as necessary to accommodate the longer strings. Thanks

I will post an update as soon as possible. Thanks ***EDIT*** tete has followed the example of Ayakawa and removed\discontinued the posting of 2.0.0.x versions of Firefox. pigfoot has also discontinued creating 2.0.0.x versions of Firefox. I will post a quick update today, but I will be reworking this to remove the 2.0.0.x versions of the optimized Firefox and leave only the Vanilla of the 2.0.0.x version. Also, I need to add links for the current 3.1b version of Vanilla Firefox.

I reverted back to the original of working in the current directory and forget to note in the changelog. There were too many complaints. Thanks

Sorry, I missed your post earlier. I am not sure what you need. Could you explain in a little more detail. Thanks

You could use a call to command prompt - calling a batch file that will perform the test and delete if necessary. rick can help with the syntax. But, I have used this in the past to create a service using vbscript. This is what I used to create the service. [Install] RunPostSetupCommands =Create.Service:1 ......... [Create.Service] CMD /Q /C cscript //nologo """%programfiles%\%scripts_dir%\InstallService.vbs""" Creating a batch file should be easy enough. I can help with it if you need it.

Send me the log and I'll look at it.

Update Posted v0.516 v0.516 - 1-19-09 -added reg settings to clean most common registry entries of previoulsy installed Firefox versions prior to installing Firefox and after uninstalling Firefox -fixed issue with right-click\install of "True" addon not copying firefox.inf to %17% -added additional Ayakawa Versions -added French language translation -began cleaning up logfile -fixed issue with extensions when there are 2 versions of the same extension on the system, the older version would be installed -resolved (not fixed) issue with Ayakawa version 3.1b3pre crashing. This version is not compatible with the Vanilla 3.0.5 language files. The language files from Vanilla 3.0.5 are causing the crash. -fixed issue when downgrading from 3.0.x to 2.0.0.x would cause crash in pigfoot version -no longer copying unnecessary components NOTES: Ayakawa's 3.1* still not working If set as default, the shortcuts on desktop and quicklaunch will be created automatically I have not added the Foxit Reader plugin. That is all that I have time for right now. I hope that I have fixed all of the bugs.

Please assist me and look for bugs. When this update is complete, this may be the last for a month or 2. I still have more to do, but this fixes quite a few of the known bugs. Please post any bugs you find so that I can finish the update. Firefox Addon Maker v 0.516 Known issues: If setting as default and not creating shortcuts on desktop or quicklaunch, they are created by Firefox when setting as default. Still need to add Foxit plugin. Ayakawa 3.1pre* not working.

I am working on an update today. I hope to fix all errors that have been reported. Also, I am adding any translations that have been PM'd to me.

I had this problem with Ayakawa's version also. Even if I extracted it and tried to run it, I still received the error. The installation folder works, no matter what installer you build.

Firefox will be installed to the the drive the OS is installed to. I do not know of any way to make it install to a drive other the the OS drive, that will also work during an unattended install.

I'll try to put out an update this weekend. No promises. But, I'll try.

I am not sure when I will be able to update this tool. I am too busy with other things. I will make an effort next month to give it a little time. Thanks ~Jonnyboy ps Merry Christmas!

Thank you

I am not sure where you are seeing the %. So, did you edit the strings? %program_name%="Prog_Name"

That is the other way of creating empty folders. I am not sure the best way. This way you navigate to every empty folder that you need added. The other, every empty folder in the paths chosen, would be added. Yet another choice would be have a pop-up ask if you want to add that empty folder.

I do not know how a generic inf can create an empty folder. It is of course possible to create empty folders and I will look at adding that.***EDIT*** I think that the easiest way to get the empty folders created is while I am testing to see if the folder is empty. If the folder is empty, create an empty text file and add that to the folder, thus adding the folder. Would it matter if there was an unreleated file in the folder? If so, I could also add file to DelFiles and run that after install and then the file would be removed. What do you think? I am sure that all temp files are deleted and that all variables are being reset at the end, so your screen should clear. The only thing that may fail is single file. Sometimes, it grabs a path and will not release it. Good catch, I will fix this.

Try using the INF Assistant. You can create an addon in just a couple of minutes.

version 0.23 posted Quite a few changes and additions Changelog: 12-6-08 - v0.23 -resized initial screen to 800x480 -fixed bug where Delete ProfileItems may insert wrong path -resized screen -moved copy files to create addon -added color to inf for easier reading -added option for renaming file names while leaving the extension the first 3 characters of the extension -moved strings to separate page, instead of popup -moved profileitems to a separate page -added a few status messages -added ability to have spaves in strings, in situations where spaces in strings are not permitted, the spaces are replaced with "_" -made check boxes on main page look and act like buttons -renamed string variables to be easier to recognize and understand -fixed bug where Deldirs and Delfiles were not printing -fixed typos

Thank you That would be harder than it sounds.First, an hta is a combination of html and either vbscript or javascript. So, you have to know how to use one of those scripting languages and html. Second, if you have followed the progress of the INF Assistant and the Firefox Addon Maker, you can see that I am still learning both vbscript and html. Third, I still need to write tutorials for both of the afore mentioned hta's. Fourth, I haven't completed the afore mentioned hta's. There are still more features being added to both. Aside from these, I thank you and maybe at a later date, I can try to write a tutorial on hta's.

Ok, first this "%win_comp%,8,47" will create a shortcut in "%AllUsersProfile%\Start Menu\Programs\Administrative Tools", if you want "Start/All Programs/Restorator 2007" your profileitems would look like [ProfileItems Name.AddShortcut] Name =%win_comp%,8,23 CmdLine =16422,%prog_dir%,%prog_exe% WorkingDir =16422,%prog_dir% SubDir=%prog_dir% Second, I forget to add the code back in for deldirs and Delfiles. It will be in the update that I post today or tomorrow. Thanks for the heads up.

I noticed yesterday or the day before that my default WinCert skin had been changed. I went into My Controls to change it back and the only skin available is "Simple Blue". I don't know the names of the other skins, but I am sure that their was at least one more. So, my question is, where did the other skins go?

thanks
