Valdacil,

First, thank you for trying my program and I'm really glad you enjoyed using it!

That being said, thank you also for pointing out this problem! I'm looking into the issue right now. Please check back soon and I will have an updated version of the program ready to go. I'll update this message as things develop.

Update 1: I've duplicated the error. The program appears to be deleting any other .plugin files in the same folder when it copies in the new .plugin file. Everything else that supports the (deleted) plugin appears to remain in place though. I'm reasonably sure I know what's going on here. I'll make another update when I find / squash the bug.

Update 2: I've found the offending piece of code and removed it. I found another bug that I probably wouldn't have noticed had I not been looking at the bug you reported. So, thanks again for letting me know about it. I'm about to upload an updated version of the program. It will install both plugins for you now.

Gave this a try the other day and I'm pleased at how it successfully registered my old plugins and upgraded the new versions when I dragged the .zip files over. I'm also happy I can disable the Turbine examples so I don't have to see them in game.

One bug I did notice, was that when I added LotroPad and Songbook it is only keeping whichever one I drop in last. I assume this is because they are both written by the same author, so they use the same parent directory. So I can't seem to have them both in using this tool.

Brygard2007,

Thank you very much for your input - again! It really is very helpful. Based on what you said I think I know what's happening. I believe I missed 1 line of code when I fixed the overall problem with registry access yesterday. I will take care of this today and there should be a new version posted and ready to go by this time tomorrow.

Thanks again for all your help! From your description I think I know exactly what the problem is...and that's worth a lot!

EDIT: The new version should fix all the errors the program was causing. Please let me know if you experience any errors from this version. Additionally, I've beefed up the installer a bit so that it does more cleanup on uninstall.

Ok I installed your new version,I haven't test it fully intensively but the first time I start it it gave me same error.

After I closed it and reopen and close few more time,I don't get any errors anymore.

So only once first time launching it.

Brygard2007 & TheFrank,

Thank you both very much for your input, it is most valuable to me. And sadly I have little capacity to test my work on anything above windows XP. I should have forseen such difficulties but did not.

None the less, with your feedback and help from the LotRO (Lua developing) community I believe I have corrected the problem that was being caused by the program itself.

Additionally, I have eliminated the batch file you mentioned in your post, TheFrank. That was the result of a poorly cobbled-together mock-installer that I hoped would suffice for a proper installer. I should never have released it in that state. However, this installer should work somewhat more reliably and with fewer errors. Windows 7 and Vista users may still have to "Run as Administrator" to run the installer though!

Please try the updated version and let me know if it causes any errors for either of you. And thanks very much for your help!

As TheFrank said the program itself.

You have to run the shortcut for the program as admin each time.

Alternative you can modify the shortcut program properties under the adavance tab to make it run as admin,doing so when run the program you get a pop each time from the UAC.

When you dont run the program as admin,each time you close the program is when you get the error as show in pic below.

Here the error code I get in Windows 7:
Code:

The program itself under Vista and Windows7 needs to use 'Run As Administrator'. The installer, MIGHT have to use that too as the .bat file you call modifies files in an otherwise protected area (%Programfiles%)

Brygard2007,

Thank you very much for the heads up! I will get to work resolving this issue right away. To that end - can you give me any more details regarding the "Run As Administrator" issue? Was it the installer you had to "Run As Administrator" or was it the actual program. And if it's the program itself, do you have to "Run As Administrator" every time you launch the program?

Vista and Win7 must run it as administrator.

Just wanted to point out when i used it first time I get errors.

Solution:
If you have Vista or Win7 you need to run it as administrator and you will not get any errors.
