Posted December 6, 200717 yr Heh yea I see that title a lot too. Anyway, I put WPI through it's paces on 9 test installs last weekend and for the most part it looks promising. Here are some things that I couldn't overcome. Firefox - wouldn't install a quick launch icon even though I told it to. Opera - installed but no icons anywhere and no uninstallerCCleaner - Same as OperaTuneup Utilities - Wouldn't install with the provided switches but installed if I set it to manual install.Smartftp - the installer let another program begin installing before it started it's actual install so I just had to wait for the next manual install program to start before installing it.I really didn't try any large programs with it but lots of small ones and I like it so far. :thumbsup_anim:
December 6, 200717 yr Opera is infamous for not installing any shortcuts when used silently, its not just in Vista and about Firefox; how do you tell it to add a ql shortcut?What I do is I extract setup.exe and the subfolders from Firefox Setup and run it with the /S switch
December 6, 200717 yr Ummmm yeah.I really appreciate the comments. But your issues are nothing todo with Vista or WPI I am glad you like WPI though.

If you don't want to investigate it, I understand but they all install just fine post install. I'm just reporting what I found is all.
