ALL Context entries have disappeared

Fri, 11/23/2007 - 09:27 — Anonymous

Hi, just posted this on BetaNews:

EDIT 11/23/07 re below quote:

1. Bobad: there is one main UniExtract shortcut in Send To, if all else fails.

2. BUT more importantly to the author:
Bobad may be on to something here-- my context menu entries for Universal Extractor have disappeared(for .zip, .msi & .exe), on Vista Home Premium Sp1. I've tried reinstalling, w/ all possible context entries enabled and .zip associated w/ it, of course-- to no avail.

Of note-- may help you-- re related programs:

    Others having issues--

PeaZip: all entries disappeared as well HOWEVER, all Send To entries still in place.
ZipInstaller: context entry ONLY appears after archive is opened & listed in Explorer 'Folder' Pane-- ALTHOUGH ONLY if right-clicked from that side, NOT if right-clicked in File pane.
ExtractNow context entries have disappeared for .exe files, but for .zip have NOT disappeared.
7Zip main context 'name' entry is still there, BUT its command submenu NEVER LOADS.

Other related programs

    "still functioning properly(each/all the very latest release, even if beta/rc/etc.)"--

#7Z, AlZip, IzArc, GSplit.

BTW
A. Universal Extractor, even before reinstall, was the last program of its kind installed.
B. SP1 for Vista was only installed 2 days ago.
C. Universal Extractor was upgraded to this Beta, w/ no issues, from the day it was released to the public.

Dollars to Doughnuts this is a Vista change issue--

1. NO such issues on WinXP SP3

2. Going by MS deadline to programmers to comply with all Vista OS changes: something along the lines that 'initially' older programs could still run normally w/ some older behaviors allowed & expected folder locations still in place... until xx date.

Very good program. Extremely useful. My only wish is that it have a Context Menu item for "Open With Uni Extractor". That way you could peek inside a compilation without extracting the whole thing. Drag-and-drop would be excellent too, but I don't know if that's possible unless ported to a full programming language. Give it a 4.6/5 :)
Rating: 5

What's funny about all this is that a not recently updated prog like IzArc has no such issues, yet some of the more constantly-updated ones, like 7zip suffer.

PS I love Universal Extractor... and i have a ton of computers & OSes, feel free to use me to troubleshoot.

G'Luck, all the best,

Project/Website Status

Wed, 11/21/2007 - 06:05 — jbreland

I haven't made very many posts lately, so I just wanted to update everyone that may be wondering what's going on. I've been insanely busy with work, both with my day and side jobs, and I just haven't had much time to work on personal projects. I definitely have some stuff in the works, just finding the time to move forward on any it is really hard to do lately.

I released a beta version of Universal Extractor v1.6 a while back now. That's pretty much ready for release right now, and has been for a couple weeks. I just need to polish a few last things related to the installer and language files, update the website with all of the appropriate new information for the release, and then put it out there. I'm hoping to dedicate some time to finishing this up soon.

I've actually begun working on a new version of AutoFLAC as well, but so far changes have mostly been limited to bug fixes and efficiency/workflow updates. I have some ideas for some pretty useful new features (aside from all of the issues that have been discussed in the Hydrogenaudio AutoFLAC thread), but it'll take a while to implement everything and put out a new release. In the meantime, just rest assured that this project has definitely not been abandoned, despite the fact that it's been over a year since the last release.

Less obvious to most visitors are the various website updates I've slowly been working on. Most of this involves restoring administrative functionality that was lost in my migration from PostNuke to Drupal a few months back (for a good example of this, see my last last post), or introducing some "private" features of the website, such as a new webmail system, that's restricted to specific users. I've also been (slowly) working on various other updates and under-the-hood tweaks to the site and server to keep things running as smoothly as possible.

So, yes, I'm still around, and this website (and associated projects) is still under development. Also, even if I'm busy and things are moving slowly, I'll try to at least update my website more than once a month. :-)

Wishlist Updated

Wed, 11/21/2007 - 05:46 — jbreland

I finally got around to updating my Wishlist earlier tonight. I'd been putting it off for some time because I still haven't completely finished re-implementing the admin interface that allows me to add/update/remove items since moving to the new site a few months back. However, since Christmas is coming and I'm already being asked, "what do you want?", I figured it's about time to start working on it again. I can now add items through the administrative web interface (woo-hoo), but removing and modifying existing items still requires direct database edits (boo). I'll get around to finishing that part as well as soon as I can figure out Drupal's really, really odd method of form handling with tabular data.

Also, I used this opportunity to make a couple changes to the wishlist. I'm now including the Date Added, so you can tell how old (or new) a particular item is. Anything already on the list from before the migration will just have a blank value here. I've also begun adding links to Best Buy, since it's sometimes easier to purchase items in a physical store than order them online. And finally, each column is now sortable, so you can sort by things like cheapest or most recently added. Just click on the title of whichever column you'd like sorted.

So anyway, for those of you that may interested in purchasing something for me, my Wishlist page is now current. Enjoy.

Edit: I added a "Last Updated" field as well, in the upper-right corner of the page. Use this to determine at a glance how long it's been since I last updated the wishlist.

v1.6 beta - Unable to unpack Inno Setup file

Thu, 11/15/2007 - 21:38 — MysteryFCM

I'm trying to unpack an Inno Setup installer thats suspected of malware, but UE has presented an error telling me it doesn't support the Inno version used?

Signature detected: Inno Setup Setup Data (5.1.13)
This is not directly supported, but i'll try to unpack it as version 5110
; Version detected: 5113
Critical error: The setup files are corrupted. Please obtain a new copy of the program.
Unpacking failed. This version is not supported.

Are there any plans to add support for this and newer versions of Inno?

Universal Extractor Slovenian language file

Tue, 11/06/2007 - 16:24 — Anonymous

Hello all.
Thanks for making the program.

Here is a coded slovenian translation, until it's included into the release
If you need the slovenian translation, copy the stuff, make new text file named "slovenian.ini" in the "lang" folder, Open it up and paste. Save the file and now you can use this language in this great program too :D
