Black Screen of Death

Encountered a Black Screen of Death with a client pc, that I haven't been able to fix - going to require reinstall of Vista. Installing a second hd with software, scanned the drive and found 937 infected files (with Avira). Yuck. Still couldn't access the drive with Vista explorer.

The good new - using SLAX, I was able to open the document directories, and found the files still intact. Still haven't been able to copy the files yet, but working on that.

I'd like to just load PCLinuxOS for the guy - give him a more trouble free, low maintenance experience. I wonder if he could handle it?

I installed a separate HD with XP, and put the files on a backup drive (on sale for $50 at Radio Shack Memorial Day sale), and ordered re-install disks from HP.
After a weekend of updating, it's now at Vista SP2 and running better than original.
Installed Avira personal, and put the files back on.

This is usually followed by:

Fix Windows Update Error: "Files required to use Windows Update are no longer registered or installed"

"Files required to use Windows Update are no longer registered or installed"

Fix that worked for me (XPSP3)

1. Download older Update Agent
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=43264

2. Make a shortcut to the .exe file

3. Right Click the shorcut - select properties

4. On the Shortcut tab, add /wuforce after the path in the Target (example:"...\WindowsUpdateAgent20-x86.exe" /wuforce"

5. Run Update - It will act like "Microsoft Update" was never added.

Microsoft Windows 7 Build 7100 Release Candidate 1 (Direct Links)


Download instructions
Thank you for testing the Windows 7 Beta. You're playing an important role in helping deliver the best version of Windows yet. Now, we hope you'll join us for the next part of the Windows 7 journey, testing the Windows 7 Release Candidate (RC).

This is the really fun part of the testing process: you help by simply using the RC. When you do, your PC will automatically and anonymously send our engineers the information they need to validate the changes and fixes they made based on the Beta tests and your feedback.
Read this first

Here's what you need to know before you get started:
* You don't need to rush! The RC will be available at least through July, and we're not limiting the number of downloads or product keys. So you have plenty of time.
* Installation: If you are running Windows 7 Beta you’ll need to back up your data (preferably on an external device) and then do a clean install of the Windows 7 Release Candidate. Then, you’ll need to reinstall applications and restore your files. If you need help, please see the Installation Instructions.
* Tech details/updates: before installing the RC, please read the Release Notes and Things to Know for important information about the release.
* Routine news: For day-to-day news, keep an eye on the team blog. And, you can get non-technical news, tips, and offers by subscribing to the monthly Exploring Windows newsletter.
* Back up your data: We know you know this already, but please back up your data and please don't test the RC on your primary home or business PC.
* Keep your PC updated: To get critical updates, be sure to turn on automatic updates in Windows Update.
* Remember expiration dates: Please plan ahead for the Beta and RC expiration dates. To avoid interruption, you’ll need to rebuild your test machine using a valid version of Windows before the software expires. Windows will notify you that the expiration process is beginning and two weeks later your PC will begin shutting down every two hours. The Beta expires on August 1, 2009, and bi-hourly shutdowns will begin July 1, 2009. The RC will expire June 1, 2010, and the bi-hourly shutdowns will begin on March 1, 2010. In both cases, you’ll need to rebuild your test PC to replace the OS and reinstall all your programs and data. (Microsoft Official Site)

AVG Antivirus vs. ClamWin

I have been using ClamWin now for a year or so. I liked the fact that it has a smaller footprint.

I was getting ready to try AVG Free again, when I noticed in the license that it was only free for personal use, and specifically excluded non-profit businesses from the license.

I get excluding business, but why Non-Profits? Just feeling uncharitable?
ClamWin is a Sourceforge open source project.

Anyway, no infections using ClamWin, so I continue on.

In addition, I use:
Windows Firewall (installed by default on XP and up)
Windows Defender
Firefox and Chrome


(Kim Kommando has her own set of recommendations for free security software)

Going Wireless - Setting Up an Efficient Office Network

Whether you're setting up an office for the first time or trying to reduce the amount of cables in the workplace, setting up a wireless office network could save you time, and money. Therefore, it is important to understand the benefits that a wireless office network can offer.

As such, a wireless network allows you to connect to a network such as the internet without the need for cables. Whilst it is true to a certain extent that wireless technology can initially prove more expensive than traditional cables, the long-term benefits it offers can work out cheaper, both financially and perhaps more importantly, in terms of efficiency and productivity.

What's more, a wireless network means that there is no need to rewire your office, should you decide a change is required to the layout. In addition, new employees can be given instant access to the network, eliminating the need for any cable to be set-up to their computer, compared to that of a wired network.

Another benefit that a wireless network can offer is that it eliminates any potential problems that can arise when external employees or clients come to visit your office. A wireless network allows clients and external employees to easily access the network, improving efficiency by taking unnecessary strain and workload away from your IT department.

As it goes, one of the most overlooked benefits of wireless technology is the safety aspect. Office falls prove to be one of the major causes of accidents within the workplace, and having large amount of cable within the office will not help. But by simply switching to a wireless network this could save you any unnecessary stress that can arise should any claims be made against you and your company.

When deciding how to provide internet and intranet access within the office, it can be all too easy to choose the traditional wired option for its initial financial benefits. Although initially less expensive, this method can prove more expensive in the long run. Furthermore, it can be easy to forget the time factor involved from wiring an entire office, or perhaps more importantly how inadaptable this method is to a changing workplace environment.

Of course, in a busy office mobility can prove a major issue and it often becomes necessary to have the flexibility to move around within the office. This is especially important if you are training new staff, or regularly moving between rooms within the office for meetings and presentations. However, a wireless office network offers ease and mobility within the office, allowing you to focus on the things that matter most.

Overall, there are many benefits to be had from switching to a wireless office network. Indeed, with an improvement in office safety, increased productivity and proving to be more financially viable in the run, a wireless network can offer very attractive benefits to any business.

How Do I Get Rid of Ads on My Computer?

If you have an adware infection on your computer, you know it: the constant advertisements are a tell-tale sign. Nobody likes these things, so let's take a look at what they are, how to get rid of them!

How Does Adware Get On My Computer Anyway?
Short answer: By using it.
Long answer: There are a variety of factors, such as how well your computer is protected from adware (which is different from virus protection, more on that later) and what you use the computer for. High risk groups for adware infections include music downloading and video downloading.

Do They Just Exist to Annoy Me?
They exist to line the pockets of whoever wrote them. When the ads show up on your computer, someone else is getting paid!

As an extra bit of fun, in addition to just being annoying, it also can cause your computer to slow significantly, and uses up a lot of bandwidth (leaving you with less to use the internet with)

How Do I Get Rid Of Them?
This is the most important part. Getting rid of adware can be, in short, a huge pain in the butt. If you look around on the web, you can usually find free adware scanning programs so you can figure out exactly what kind of adware you have on your computer. From there, you can Google the type of infection found and look for removal instructions (or bite the bullet and pay for adware removal)

Stay away from free adware removal programs! Many of them are designed to just infect your computer with their own adware instead of actually helping you. Free scanning is fine, but watch out for programs that advertise free removal.

What's The Best Protection Against Them?
There are a number of anti-adware programs out there that include both removal of adware as well as active protection against adware. Note that anti-virus software generally does not protect you from adware, because the two types of software are quite different (namely, viruses actively cripple your computer instead of just annoy you with ads).

Every computer that is used to access the internet should be protected by some manner of adware scanning software, just to prevent any infection.

Looking for an anti-adware program for your computer? Take a look at my NoAdware Review and grab a free adware scan to make sure your computer is entirely adware-free!

Internet Explorer Freezing - How to Fix Internet Explorer Freezing Problems the Easy Way

Tired of Internet Explorer Freezing? Want to know how to fix Internet Explorer so that it doesn't freeze up? Well you have come to the right place. Although a solid program, IE does come with quite a few flaws unfortunately. One of those flaws is that at random times it seems to freeze up on you. Before we get to how to fix Internet Explorer freezing, it is important to understand what causes it.

IE freezing is due to a breakdown in the communication between the browser and your computer. When the computer can no longer communicate with the browser, Internet Explorer does not know what to do. At this point it will freeze, lock, or crash.

So in order to repair IE, we need to fix the gap in the communication process. This gap lies within the Windows registry. The registry is the area that controls all communication between your system, software, and hardware. It contains all data to execute commands when running software and hardware.

So in order to stop Internet Explorer freezing, you need to repair the Windows registry. Unfortunately this can be more difficult than you think. The registry is an extremely sophisticated and sensitive area. Manual repair of the registry can cause even more problems if you don't know EXACTLY what you are doing.

So if you are not a computer expert, I highly recommend downloading a registry repair tool to fix Internet Explorer freezing. If you are interested you can check out some reviews of the top products below, as well as my recommendation for the #1 cleaner on the market. A free scan is also available, you can have a first hand look at the registry errors that are causing this particular problem.

Sick of your computer freezing up? Want to repair computer errors the easy way? Scan your computer for free and fix corrupt registry problems with the #1 registry cleaner on the internet. After scanning your computer, I promise you will be quite surprised by all the errors on your system.

http://www.registry-clean-up.net

Jim Marshall is a computer technician expert with over 15 years in the industry. He has an intimate knowledge of the windows registry and various register repair software.

Clean Your Registry to Optimize Your PC

So when does someone know if it has become time to repair, clean and optimize the windows registry? The registry is actually one of the most important components of your entire computer. The registry is the place where your system stores all of it's setting for all the different software applications that you have ever installed onto your computer. It also hold the data for your personal preferences and those of each computer user.

Over a period of time, usually several months, excessive software installs and incorrectly un-installed programs can clutter the system registry making it extremely large in size and therefore it takes the computer longer to perform it's functions. This cluttering can also cause your computer to have numerous errors and random and unexpected crashes. Normally someone might take their computer in for repairs thinking that the problem was hardware based or maybe caused by a virus or spyware. The truth is, it may have only been a simple problem with the registry that would only take a few minutes to fix.

A quality registry optimizer and cleaner is able to automatically scan your system for errors and then fix them. They will either fix them all or give you the option to pick and choose. Regardless of which option you choose, almost all registry repair programs come with a backup or restore feature so that you can always reverse what changes you make.

With all the different software programs to choose from, it can be a challenge finding which one is best and will do the best job. One thing to keep in mind are the awards the software has received. Can these be verified on their websites or are they just faked? Also are these awards given from authority sites that are reputable and respectable?

By the time you decide to download a registry cleaner, it may seem as though your computer is ready to die. You might know the feeling that it seems to take forever just for your computer to startup or do simple tasks that once took mere seconds. It can become quite frustrating while watching online movies to notice it glitch every few seconds.

After a recommendation from an IT friend, I downloaded a free software program and then performed a scan on my system. I waited a few minutes and the software actually came up with 639 different errors. I promptly chose to delete them all as I am not very tech-savvy and have no idea what it had found, but I always knew I could restore my old registry if I needed to for any reason.

What was truly amazing, was that my computer now operated similarly to how it did when I first purchased it over a year ago. It can also handle having several software applications running at the same time that it wasn't able to do recently.

ll you then need to do is to perform a regular once-a-month or even weekly scan to keep the performance of your PC at it's best.

Free Home Inventory Software – a Case For Use

Free Home Inventory Software - Itemizing what you own can save you time and money if you ever need to make a claim on your homeowners or renters insurance. As time passes, most of us acquire more things that have a sentimental value as well as monetary value. It’s a good idea to maintain an ongoing inventory of your personal property even after you’ve obtained homeowners or renters insurance.

Having a home inventory on file can help expedite any claims you may have to make on your homeowners or renters policy. The insurance company can resolve a claim faster if a homeowner has documentation of items that are damaged or stolen from your home or apartment. A home inventory checklist can help with filing accuracy and help you determine how much insurance to purchase, too.

Starting Your Home inventory.

f you purchase homeowners insurance for the first time, make it a goal to complete your inventory within a set period of time. Advice is to take an inventory of your home before you purchase your policy so you can get an idea of how much insurance to purchase.

Choosing The Type of Home Inventory To Use.

ou can purchase a software program, download a free 30 day program from the internet, download a sheet from the internet, or a list provided by your insurance company. You want to first complete a paper inventory as you go through the rooms in your home, then transfer that information to your computer for filing, and save on a CD. Always keep the hand written copy in a file.

How and What to Inventory.

o through each room of your home to photograph and video furnishings, jewelry, electronic items to include TVs, VCRs, CD players, DVDs. The photos should be specific of each item.

The photographed items should be saved on a disk if using a digital camera. When going through each room, it would be a good idea to have a family member with you to verify that you’ve covered everything.

Listing Items

ake sure every item is listed by the following: Item type, serial number and model number of TVs, VCRs, DVD player, speaker system and any other electronic items. Jewelry item type, cost, and size.

Updating Inventory on a Regular Basis.

eview the inventory on a yearly basis. Also items that you have acquired.

Saving your Home Inventory.

ake sure you keep a copy of your inventory in a safe place, on a CD disk, and a handwritten copy in a safe deposit box and with a close friend or relative. The goal is to make sure you have easy access to the inventory in case you need to make a claim with the insurance company.

Be sure to provide a copy of your inventory to your insurance company. This is obviously critical, because if you do not provide a copy and follow up on the process the whole idea of keeping your belongings itemized will be lost. Follow this whole process and you will better off.

Why Screensavers Are Becoming More Popular Than Ever

Years ago, screensavers were popular even though they were static photos or pictures, normally of animals or landscapes, other wise known as Vista Screensavers. Today, thanks to the advances in computing, these popular screensavers are visual masterpieces - No longer static, I watch as birds fly across my screen, or dinosaurs romp through.

Some years ago I recall having to pay for a fish tank screensaver which did not deliver much in the way of comfort when watching it - I was really wanting a screensaver that I could watch to relax when the day became to hectic. Needless to say I did not spend too much time watching that screensaver.

The other day, a friend was using my PC and commented about my lack of screensavers. I didn't want to pay for another screensaver - I figured it would be easier to just download some holiday snaps from my camera and use those photos on my screen as a slide show. I then realised that this would probably depress me more than cheer me up - I didn't want to spend my spare time wishing the year away until I got leave again.

I ran several searches on Google and to my surprise found that there is one place where I was able to download a screensaver toolbar for free - no registration required, and no having to go back and search through a stack of titles - I could simply access them from my toolbar, changing the theme when ever I needed. I am glad that I went with this - I also noted that there were a number of web sites and Adsense advertising for sites that wanted payment for their screen savers.

I gather that there are people out there who expect to pay for any thing they get online, not understanding that there are sites that offer these incredible images at no cost. The best part is the huge advances made in screensavers since my old fish one - Popular Screensavers have animated screen savers, life like free vista screensavers - and a whole host featuring animals. So, if you are seeking some thing calming for those busy days, or some thing warming for those cold days (or some thing cold for those hot days then I strongly recommend that you go to Popular Screensavers and download the free screensaver toolbar - no fuss, no spyware and no registration required - And, more importantly - No money to outlay - all completely free!

To find the best screensavers online go to Popular Screensavers You will be surprised at the large range of Free Screensavers that they have.

Computer Infection Warning Signs - What Are Virus Infection Signs?

If you are one of many people who are getting virus infection signs then you should be careful. Some signs are true while many are actually fake! How can you distinguish them? I will tell you how exactly you can determine whether yours is a fake or real one.

The most common fake infection sign are pop ups from windows taskbar. However not all of them are fake. To determine whether an infection warning is a real or not, you need to check the warning pop up and see what it tells you to do. If the pop up is telling you to download an antispyware then it is fake. Do not download those antispyware because they are actually fake antispywares or rogue antispywares. They will not help you remove virus, contrary they will infect your PC further.

Here are some examples of possible false pop ups:

• Warning Spyware Threat detected on your PC!
• Windows detected Spyware infection!
• Your System is in Danger!
• Your Computer has Security Problem!

There are also some other signs you should be wary of. For example if your desktop settings or browser home page is altered without your consent. In some cases you will not be able to change them back. Other cases redirect the user to malicious websites. Malicious websites are often made to infect PCs when visited.

The other obvious sign of virus infection is slow computer. If your computer is significantly slower than before you should be careful. Spyware and virus usually take up major processes in the system and make your computer slow.

If you keep seeing signs of virus warnings, try to check your antispyware. Is it protecting you properly? Most free antispyware will have trouble in detecting new threats since they are not properly updated and maintained. Cyber crime is rising rapidly these days; do not let yourself be the next victim!

Types of Computer Viruses

In computing terminology, a ‘malicious code’ is a term used for computer viruses and programs designed to cause damage to computers. Other types of destructive PC worms are known as Internet virus including the examples like Worms and Trojans.

Outlined below is the description of different kinds of computer viruses:

Program/File Infector

Falling under the category of parasitic viruses, a program or file infector attempts to infect the files with extension code like .exe, .com, .drv, .dil, .bin, .ovl, and .sys. It gets activate along with the execution of executable file containing virus. The virus then loads itself into memory and replicates itself to other executable files when these files are opened or run.

The File Infector virus can destroy the content contained in files and cause irreversible damage to them. Some file viruses have also operated as email worm and Trojan horse.

The best way to disinfect files infected by the file virus is to delete them and restore from back up.

Macro Computer Virus

A macro computer virus is a virus written in a language built into a software application such as a word processor. For example: Microsoft Office has the macro language built into its application. This is why most of its application programs are affected by macro computer virus.

Macro viruses are generally created using the macro recorder or Visual Basic for Applications. The applications that are the most prone to this antivirus are Word Documents, Excel Spreadsheets, Power Point Presentation, and Access Database. The virus infects templates of these documents and therefore every file that the user opens gets affected. Some common macro computer viruses are Auto Exec, Auto New, Auto Open, Auto Close, and Auto Exit.

The auto macros can be disabled by using the command ‘DisableAutoMacros’ in any macro that is written. Another way to remove it is by holding down the shift key while opening a document.


Multi-Partite Virus

It behaves in the same way as other computer viruses do. As the name signifies, they are sometimes more than one type. These are hybrids and are known as multi-partite virus.

Polymorphic Viruses

It is a kind of virus which produces different but operational copies for itself. Its attack is considered to be extremely dangerous as virus detectors will not be able to detect all instances of virus attacks simultaneously. And this is one of the reasons why it is known to be strategically designed.

Stealth Viruses

A stealth virus uses different mechanisms to prevent recognition by antivirus software. It tries to escape detection either by redirecting the disk head to head to read another sector or modifying the file size shown in the Directory listing.

Classification of some viruses is not possible as they are the file type viruses which start behaving as computer worms with an activation code.

Don't Download Free Registry Cleaner Software Programs

Like many people you might not know what a registry cleaner is, so before we begin you need to know that it is software that scans your registry on your computer and it removes items that do not need to be there. It ensures that your stored information is not scattered everywhere and will put it all in proper order. This enables Windows to locate what is needed far more quickly which means that your computer will be faster.

Once you know what a registry cleaner is, and that you require one for your computer, you will now have to choose whether to buy one or download one free from the Internet.

Most people will usually choose the free option, quite understandably, however you need to remember that not all free software downloads are provided by honest people. Some providers are totally disreputable and will offer you a free registry download full of harmful files. Instead of speeding up your computer you end up filling it with a virus.

Any software or programs you download that causes some kind of harm to your computer contains a virus of some kind and this is known as malware. It is not only viruses that are included under the heading of malware. Anything that cause damage to your computer, whether dialers, hijackers, spyware, adware, etc, are all examples of malware.

These unscrupulous people are well aware that in order to infect your computer, or anyone else's, it helps to hide the malware in something a lot of people will want or need, like a registry cleaner, that they then offer as a free download to people. While the unsuspecting person happily downloads the program or software, thinking that what they are receiving will benefit their computer, what they are actually getting is some type of malware that will damage their computer.

Even if you are wise enough to have anti-virus on your computer, and everyone should, it will not be much use if the malware is disguised to seem part of the registry software. Anti-virus will simply not detect that it is there.

When it comes to free downloads it is best to remember that if something seems to good to be true it usually is. Instead, be safe and avoid the offers of free registry cleaner software so that you do not become another victim of the disreputable people out there.

Surprisingly, even if you did manage to find a proper registry cleaner for free online, you would not really be saving all that much, because this software is not at all expensive. Perhaps you may be wondering how registry cleaners that enable you to scan, clean and repair your Windows registry can be made available at the good prices they are.

The reason it is not expensive is because it is sold online. All that is required is for you to click the download link. But stores have expenses to consider, such as rent, wages, etc, plus they are in business to make a profit, therefore they charge much more.

You will be able to buy the actual product from registry cleaner companies but because they need to put it onto disc and then send it to you, combined with the expenses already mentioned, you will pay a lot more than you would if you buy it online. All that is required is the click of a mouse button in order to download it onto your computer.

Besides the fact that your online provider has far fewer expenses, there is also the fact that there is plenty of healthy competition, all offering register cleaning software and all wanting your business. And since you are paying for it you can rest easy in the knowledge that you are getting the real thing without any nasty surprises waiting in store.

Ryan Edward has reviewed every piece of registry cleaning software that he could get his hands on. He shares his reviews of the top registry cleaners that are available instantly online at his website.

Using InstallAware 7 To Patch Software Products

Overview

This whitepaper describes how to use InstallAware for patching software products. While many third party patching tools are available, most are loosely integrated with installation tools. This makes the patch delivery and installation awkward, resulting in a less than satisfactory user experience. Certain setup authoring tools do provide an integrated mechanism for building patches, improving the user experience. However, in these cases the patch authoring process is very complex and requires special training. Patches are treated as a special kind of setup project, with many authoring pitfalls that the developer has to be conscious of both before and during actual patch development. Since patches are distributed after the actual product has shipped, this results in difficult situations where the original setups can no longer be modified, but were required to be authored differently for the patches to be successful.

InstallAware addresses these challenges in patch authoring using a unique technology: One-Click Patching. InstallAware literally builds patches for older versions of your products in a single click. You simply refer the IDE to the old, built versions of your setup to upgrade, and click the "Build Patch" button. No additional coding or development effort is required at any time. InstallAware takes care of the rest for you.

Despite this remarkable ease of use, in the InstallAware tradition, extensive customization of the patch process and patch user experience remains possible. This makes it possible for you to integrate your business logic into your installer at runtime, dramatically reducing development overhead that would otherwise be required to support that logic. For instance, before applying a patch, dynamic validation of the user's existing product license may be performed, barring the software upgrade if the license has expired or is invalid. Similarly, a single patch may be applied onto multiple targets - making it possible to reduce integration workload when patching products in different target languages, editions, and other configurations.

InstallAware further aids patch deployment by reducing the payload size, improving compression ratios, and caching old version setup sources. Patches are built using binary incremental differencing technology, which includes only the delta between the old and new versions of your files in your patch packages. This data is then compressed using LZMA/BCJ2 compression technology, which pre-processes files to increase their compressibility for even more space savings. At runtime, InstallAware simply refers to cached setup sources, eliminating unnecessary CD/DVD and other kinds of original setup media prompts, which would otherwise derail patch deployment (other setup authoring mechanisms do not cache setup sources on the end-user system).

While offering these unique benefits, InstallAware is completely standards based - every InstallAware patch is a native Windows Installer patch package (MSP) that can execute directly, without requiring a third-party scripting runtime to be previously installed. Windows Installer is the only Microsoft approved installation technology and is a requirement of Microsoft logo certification programs. It offers several other advantages such as elevated-privilege installations in high-security contexts and automated corporate deployment using Active Directory Group Policy. These benefits make MSP format patches the only accepted software distribution format for large enterprises.

Building the First Version Installer

While it is possible to upgrade products built using any setup authoring technology using InstallAware, those upgrades cannot take advantage of InstallAware's One-Click Patching technology. Any product which you wish to patch using InstallAware must have originally been installed with InstallAware.

To build the installer for the first version of your product, perform the following steps.

1. Our hypothetical product is comprised of two files, an application file and a data file. Windows's standard text editor Notepad, located in your Windows folder, will serve as our application file.

We'll go ahead and create the data file. Right click your Desktop, and choose New - Text Document. Name the file Notepad Data, double click it, and edit it so its contents look like the screenshot below:

2. Now that our first version product files are ready, we can get started building the first version installer. Launch the InstallAware 7 IDE using the Windows Start Menu. Then, on the Project tab, in the New group, click the Basic Setup button. The New Project window is displayed.

3. The Basic Setup project type is pre-selected. Additionally, the New Project window lists other types of templates, wizards, sample projects, and project converters.

The Basic Setup project type contains all the plumbing we need to build a fully working installation - with out of the box support for multiple features, application repair and maintenance, uninstall, and also patching, our area of focus in this whitepaper.

4. Under the Project Name field, accept the default value of My Setup, or provide your own project name. Projects are normally created under your My Documents folder, and reside inside their own subfolders. If you would like to use a different folder, enter that folder name here, or use the suggested value. Click OK when you're ready to create the project.

5. Now that our setup project is ready, we'll begin to flesh it out with our products's logical organization. On the Design tab, click the Files and Settings button. Select the Features designer under the Setup Architecture heading and define two features, so your setup project looks like the screenshot above. Use the Rename button to rename existing features, and the New button to insert new features. The Up-Down buttons on the top right corner of the design view let you sort your features. You may also customize feature descriptions by highlighting a feature, and then editing its description in the Feature Description field.

When you're finished, select the Files designer under the Setup Architecture heading to add your actual product files to the setup project.

6. The top section of the Files designer lists the files available on your development system. The bottom section of the Files designer lists the files that are installed by your setup. Notice the list of variables that are displayed under the Target Folders list. $TARGETDIR$ is a special variable which indicates the destination directory chosen by the user at install time. Select $TARGETDIR$ before adding any files to make sure they will be installed into the end-user's chosen destination.

The Filter Files by Feature check-box lets you associate individual files with your product's logical organization (the features defined in the previous step). After checking this box, be sure to choose the product feature that you wish to associate files with.

From your Windows folder, add the file notepad.exe under the Program Files feature. Then browse to your Desktop folder, and add the file Notepad Data.txt under the Data Files feature.

7. Shortcuts will let us easily open installed files and test that the patch is working. Select the Shortcuts designer under the Setup Architecture heading, and then click New to display the New Shortcut dialog.

It's easy to create shortcuts in a variety of locations using this dialog. Click the Browse button to visually locate your shortcut targets from among the files you're installing, or alternately type any file or folder location directly in the Shortcut Target field. Be sure to name your shortcut using the Text field, and pick at least one location to create the shortcut under from the Shortcut Placement group. Click OK to save your changes.

Create two shortcuts - one called My Data which points to our dummy text file, and another called My Program which points to the copy of Notepad that we're installing. We're now ready to build our first version setup!

8. On the Project tab, in the Build group, click Web Deploy. We choose the Web Deploy build mode, because when a setup is built this way, it locally caches its setup sources on the target system - eliminating the need for source media prompts that would be occurring with other build modes, such as the CD or DVD build mode. It's also possible to build a setup in Web Deploy mode without actually deploying anything on the web - we'll revisit this subject in the second half of this guide.

When the build is complete, click the downward arrow on the Output Folder button in the Build group, and choose the Web Deploy location. Explorer opens up with our built setup, with the following files located inside the folder:

* My Setup.exe: This is the main setup executable, which contains the installer engine.

* Data Files.7zip: This setup data file contains all the files which were included in the Data Files feature.

* Program Files.7zip: This setup data file contains all the files which were included in the Program Files feature.

9. Create a new folder on your Desktop, calling it Version One. Copy all built setup files inside this folder. This folder serves as your backup location for your old version installer, which is all that is needed for building a patch targeting this first version. Old product files or setup sources are not required.

Building the Second (and further) Version Installers

Now that we've successfully built and saved a copy of our first version setup, we're ready to make the changes to the product and setup project for building the second version.

1. Edit the text file on your Desktop created in step 1 of the previous section, and edit its contents so it looks like the screenshot below:

2. Save your changes to the text file, and rebuild your setup following the procedure in step 8 of the previous section. Remember to create another folder on your Desktop called Version Two, and again copy all built setup files into this folder, backing up the second version installer for use with future patches.

3. If necessary, make further changes to your product files and setup project (such as adding more files), and build further version installers as necessary. Just be sure to backup each built setup, so you can patch them later on.

Building the Patch

There are absolutely no additional steps required to build a patch, above and over the changes made to your product files and the new version installer. Follow the steps below to create your patch:

1. On the Design tab, in the Views group, click the Deploy button.

2. Under the Deployment heading, choose the Patches designer. Click the Add button in the Patches designer and add the file My Setup.exe from the Version One folder created earlier on your Desktop.

3. If there are other product versions to patch, add their installers from their backup folders as well. These saved old version installers are all InstallAware needs for creating a patch!

4. Click the Build Patch button. Once your patch has been built, click the Browse button to open Explorer inside the folder containing your patch file, My Setup.exe. This patch will successfully upgrade all referenced old versions to your latest version!

Congratulations! You have now built a patch for your software product using InstallAware. Install your first version install, open the text file to verify its contents; then install the patch and verify that your text file has been updated. Experiment with making more changes to your setup project, and let InstallAware take care of building more patches for you with a single click!

Deployment Scenarios

Patch Source Resolution

All Windows Installer patches require access to the old version product's setup files. The setup files for the old version must be successfully identified (resolved) before any patches may be applied. This section describes how InstallAware patches handle this source resolution requirement.

Patch Source Resolution for Web Deployed Setups

Since web deployed setups always locally cache their setup files, patch source resolution for web deployed setups is automatic. No manual steps are required during patch source resolution. It is also possible to author web deployed setups such that they do not require an Internet connection at any time during installation; these advantages make web deployed setups ideal for patching in InstallAware.

Patch Source Resolution for CD or DVD Setups

If it is undesirable to cache setup sources locally, CD or DVD setups may also be used. When patching a CD or DVD setup, a dialog box will ask for the original setup files. At this stage, the end-user simply needs to insert the original installation media, and select the drive containing the setup sources. If a CD or DVD setup was not stored on a removable medium but resides on a hard drive folder, simply selecting that folder will again suffice during patch source resolution.

Patch Source Resolution for Single File Setups

A single file setup packs all setup files into a single self extracting file. This self extracting archive, when run, first expands all setup files into a temporary folder, and then initiates setup. When patching against these setups, therefore, it is not sufficient to point to the folder containing the single self extracting file. Instead, the self extracting file should be run, allowing it to complete to the stage of extracting its setup files to a temporary folder, and then that temporary folder should be chosen. Identifying this folder can be a little daunting for novice end-users, therefore single file setups are not recommended as patch targets; however if necessary it is still possible to patch single file setups.

A practical step by step method to locate the temporary folder where setup files are extracted into is as follows:

1. Click the Windows Start button, choose Run, and type in %temp% into the Open field. Then click OK.

2. Windows Explorer opens, displaying the contents of the user's temporary folder.

3. Look for a folder that starts with the characters mia and ends with the characters .tmp, with some random numbers and letters in between. In the rare event that there are multiple folders fitting this pattern, simply try each folder until the patch installer accepts one of your choices (the patch installer will check to make sure valid sources are specified).

The main advantage of using a single file setup is to create a monolithic package that contains everything needed to install an application without requiring an Internet connection or a CD/DVD (and other types of removable media). It is possible to build web deployed setups which are still monolithic and do not require access to the Internet at any time during installation, so in cases where a monolithic single file setup is desired, the Web Deploy build mode can be preferred over the Single File build mode. Patch source resolution is automatic with all web deployed setups, and the output of a setup built using the Web Deploy build mode can still be a single physical file, as described in the following section.

Building Monolithic Web Deployed Setups

Since web deployed setups are the easiest base setups to patch against, it is desirable to use them when deploying your full version installers. In certain situations you may want to build setups which do not require an Internet connection at any time. InstallAware makes it easy to build monolithic web deployed setups - that are fully self-contained - so they always cache setup files, contain all setup data in a single setup file, and are easy for your end-users to patch against. To convert any existing setup to a monolithic web deployed setup, follow these steps:

1. Open your setup project in the InstallAware IDE, and choose the MSIcode tab to access the full sources of your installation.

2. Inside the MSIcode editor, choose the tab immediately to the right of the Welcome Page tab. For our hypothetical setup, this tab is called My Setup.

3. Notice the two drop-down combo boxes immediately above the MSIcode script. Select Web Media Blocks in the left combo box. Then expand the right combo box to display a list of all your Web Media Blocks (parts of your setup that are downloaded from the Internet at runtime).

4. Select a Web Media Block from the open combo box. The MSIcode editor positions the cursor at the exact location in the script where the Web Media Block is defined.

5. Right-click the highlighted Web Media Block line, and choose Comment Out/In. This comments out the Web Media Block definition, directing the InstallAware setup compiler to ignore this directive.

6. Repeat steps 4-5 until all Web Media Blocks in the MSIcode script have been commented out.

7. Press the Page Up key repeatedly until you are on top of the installation script.

8. Using the mouse, drag-drop the Web Media Block command from the MSIcode command palette (on the right of the MSIcode editor) to the top of your script. This inserts a new Web Media Block command into the MSIcode script.

9. The Define Web Media Block dialog box appears. Without making any changes in this dialog, simply click the OK button. This inserts a new line into your MSIcode script called [OFFLINE CONTENT]. This instructs the InstallAware setup compiler to include each file of your setup package directly inside the main setup.exe file, instead of an Internet location where they will be downloaded from at runtime.

Building your setup in the Web Deploy build mode will now create a monolithic web deployed setup, which does not require access to the Internet at any time during installation, providing the easiest targets to patch against thanks to automated patch source resolution.

Customizing Patches

Compiler Variables

InstallAware features Compiler Variables, which offer an easy way to build multiple setup files from a single setup project. Using Compiler Variables, which are similar to conditional directives found in most programming languages, you may conditionally include/exclude parts of the MSIcode script, and build different flavors of an existing setup, all based on a single setup project.

Built-In Compiler Variables

InstallAware provides various built-in Compiler Variables. For instance, the internal BUILDMODE Compiler Variable evaluates to PATCH when building patches in InstallAware. This makes it very easy to add additional logic to your MSIcode script, that is only compiled during a patch build (for instance, when clicking the Patch button in the Build group on the Project tab). Additional, custom Compiler Variables may be defined using the Project Options window (accessible by clicking the Project Settings button in the Manage group on the Project tab). Compiler Variable values can also be set from the command line when using the miabuild.exe command line build tool, for added convenience.

Conditional Compilation using Compiler Variables

Three MSIcode commands offer the possibility to test the values of Compiler Variables, and selectively include/exclude parts of the MSIcode script at build time. These commands are found on the Compiler Directives group of the MSIcode command palette (accessible on the MSIcode tab, to the right of the MSIcode editor):

* Compiler Variable If: Opens a new conditional compilation block. Simply drag-drop this command into your MSIcode script to create a new conditionally compiled block.

In the Variable field of this command, enter the Compiler Variable to test for. You may test for both built-in and custom Compiler Variables using this command. To start a new conditionally compiled block included only when building patches, enter BUILDMODE in this field. In the Comparison field, choose a type of comparison to perform. Accept the default comparison of Equals for testing patch builds. If you need to reverse the type of comparison, check the Reverse Comparison (If Not) check-box. In the Compare With field, enter the literal value to test the value of the Compiler Variable against. For patches, enter PATCH in this field.

* Compiler Variable Else: Branches a previously started conditional compilation block, such that if the immediately preceding Compiler Variable If test failed, the MSIcode commands following the Compiler Variable Else command are conditionally compiled.

* Compiler Variable End: Closes a conditional compilation block previously opened with a Compiler Variable If command. Each Compiler Variable If command must have a corresponding Compiler Variable End command.

You may freely nest multiple conditional compilation blocks as you see fit. You may also use any kind of MSIcode commands within your conditionally compiled blocks.

InstallAware internally uses Compiler Variables to make One-Click Patching possible. Most InstallAware templates (including the Basic Setup template used in this whitepaper) provide a properly constructed MSIcode script with all necessary Compiler Variable If/Else/End commands that provide effortless patch construction from the same setup project used for the main setup.

Using Compiler Variables in this way provides out-of-the-box One-Click Patching convenience for developers, while retaining developer flexibility and permitting additional customizations to patches being built based on a single setup project. You may freely customize any of the InstallAware templates to suit your requirements and embed any kind of business logic to your installations for patching, while avoiding the problems and overhead associated with having to create and maintain new, separate patch projects from scratch.
