vb.net - Replacing a .NET dll -


I have a del, which is installed with the initial installation of my app (via the MSI file). DLL has a user key and it is a 'demo' for initial installation. When a user buys the license, he is provided with another DLL in which his name is included. The second DLL is the first, has been rebuilt with a different name, so this is the same GUID and file name. It works fine on my Win7 test machine, I can replace the dll in the Dll of my apps and it runs correctly. I recently provided a user DLL to a new customer, but the replacement method does not seem to work. She is quite a IT literate, so I think she is following the email instruction (by changing userdata.dll to your AP directory with attachment) it does not seem to replace DLL. She is using Win8 (Pro).

I thought of sending an ino setup to copy the user DL to API DIR, Flags: Unblocked Resource Shared File

Can a suggestion or an explanation be made?

Later ... I have now sent an inline setup to the updated DLL and it works. If I use the second DLL method (a good idea), I still have to install this user.

You say that it is not in place of DLL. Is this the UAC redirecting your file to local storage?

If this is the case, the easiest way to deal with it will be either 1) A batch file that can copy the file, right-click the batch file and run it on the enk "administrator" "With instructions to choose with directions.
2) Supply an executable that can make the file copy. You can either include instructions to run XE as an administrator like batch file, or you can include a manifest to direct windows to the file that can be executed as an administrator need to.

One last option, which can be worth it, while trying to stop the UAC for the user to troubleshoot and then try the file copy again. If this works then this user will be happy and you know what the problem is and can be a great solution for future customers.

I have just looked at my Win 8 laptop and changed the options control panel for UAC - User accounts - User accounts - User account control settings. This will give a slider that can be dropped all the way down to close the UAC.
(The user is actually listed twice in the account.)
