Fixes & Enhancements
Fixes
- Universal Co-Installer
1. Fixed some registry entries added by INI file during the installation are not removed during the uninstallation.
2. Finding specific registry entries when parsing an INI file worked only on English OS. It is now fixed and registry updates are successful regardless of the OS language.
- Universal Installer/Uninstaller
1. Added a new feature to display icons of the installed software packages if the installation process involves installation of several application like modem driver, DLD application, NetWaiting application, Modem Diagnostics application, User Guides, etc.
2. UIU when uninstalling HDA device could wrongly detect that it had in-build driver and ask OS to install it instead of the uninstalled driver. If that happens the device is marked with the exclamation mark in the Device Manager.
3. After installing the modem driver it was inheriting a reboot request from a previous device installation. The fix is a command line option "-DPME". When set it will disable this enumeration. The UIU will then refresh device manager before installation to ensure the modem is enumerated and appears in device manager.
4. During uninstallation of the driver the UIU deletes the shortcut on the desktop. The Icon intermittently did not disappear even though it was been deleted. Fix was to refresh the desktop to ensure the icon is removed.
5. Add feature to invoke another UIU based on the devices PNP ID
6. If the device is not present in the system and the driver is installed silently a message box will still pop up to notify the user. This is now resolved and the error is reflected in a log file
- Digital Call Progress
1. Intermittent system crash when disconnecting modem call with AOL 9.0 Optimized application
Enhancements
- Not Applicable
