\"\"There is now an update of SamLogic Visual Installer 2014<\/a> available. The version number is 10.0.27<\/em>, and some of the news and improvements in this version are:<\/p>\n

\u2022 A German<\/strong> language file is now included. Texts in setup dialog boxes and message boxes etc. can now be displayed in German in an easy way. Read more<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u2022 A new script command: UNINSTALL_XRUN<\/strong>. Can be used to run a program during an uninstallation. It works like XRUN<\/strong>, but the command is executed during the uninstallation process. This command is useful if some special processing must be done during the uninstallation process, for example to uninstall a Windows service that was installed during the installation process. The picture below shows an example of usage. Read more<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u2022 A new script command: UNINSTALL_MSIEXEC<\/strong>. Can be used to run an external MSI installation or uninstallation during an uninstallation process. By combining MSIEXEC<\/strong> with UNINSTALL_MSIEXEC<\/strong> you have a nice and easy way to handle both installations and uninstallations of MSI files. The picture below shows an example of usage. Read more<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u2022 Improved error handling when using the code signing functions in Visual Installer.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Improved error handling when adding files to Visual Installer’s file list through a .DEP file.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Easier to install side-by-side system files \/ runtime files like MFC42.DLL.<\/p>\n

We have also fixed some bugs and other issues that have been reported. For example:<\/p>\n

\u2022 Forward slashes in the main destination folder made the installation to fail. Visual Installer now converts forward slashes (“\/”) to backslashes (“\\”) automatically.<\/p>\n

\u2022 If the source path was a UNC file path (a file path that starts with “\\\\”) the installation sometimes failed. Visual Installer now checks that the source path starts with a drive letter.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Some updates in the English languages file. We have removed some outdated text.<\/p>\n
