Have customised the WiX installer so that
it has some nice backgrounds, and so that
the title and description text is white on
black rather than black on grey. It works
well.
This project will encapsulate the .Net web installer
and the DisplayMagician installer so that it installs
the .net 4.8 if it isn't already installed. Still not sure if
I will keep it. It is a partial work in progress.
Installer works, but there are a few issues with it.
- It doesn't register the DesktopBackground COM server
- It doesn't create a start menu shortcut with the AUMID
- It doesn't check for .Net Framework 4.8 or later
- It doesn't try to install .Net Framework 4.8 or later if not there
- It doesn't have any customised backgrounds...
- It doesn't ask to run DisplayMagician when install is finished
This registers the Application User Model ID
with Win 10 so that it recognises the application
and can interact with it. This allows Toasts, Taskbar
pinning, right-click menus and other functions to
work.
Had problems storing ChangeAudioDevice and
SetAudioVolume settings (and the Capture Device
versions) so had to slightly change the way the
settings were stored.
Also set it to a more reasonable 20 second timeout
and then it continues through the starting process.
Also added some NLog error handling in RunShortcut.
There was an issue with the IsPossible check
as it hadn't been adjusted from when I removed
the Output from the display fingerprint. The
Output number changes in the NVIDIA driver
so it is different after a reboot. I hadn't removed
the Output from the current display device
check, and so it wasn't matching the correct
stored fingerprint.
Helper messages added to the MainForm and
to the Shortcut library to try and help people
understand what order to do things in so that
the software works as intended.
Fixed an issue where Steam and Uplay don't detect the
game correctly. Now they find the processes themselves.
Also fixed ProgramSettings so that it generates a new
settings file on startup.
Also added LogLevel option to the ProgramSettings so that
I can start rolling out the NLog log statements to report
errors from the binary when it's installed on people's
PCs.
The audio onselect event had an errant bit of
logic that resulted in an exception - now fixed.
Also updated the Setup UI with nicer pictures
and some words that are more reflective of the
purpose of this software.
