ContentsOptional Features
This page is the final page of the project wizard and where you can configure some optional features for your patch.
Whether to create a log file while the patch is running. This setting can be enabled later by choosing Project > Settings... from the program menu and selecting the Advanced tab.
If checked, and the patch is run on a system without administrative privileges, the user is alerted, and the patch will continue.
Tip: Use this option when changing system settings, or when writing to a folder where permissions are required, such as Windows or Program Files.
Create backups of all existing files that are being patched before overwriting them and store them in a backup folder. Each existing file being patched will be renamed to filename.bak. If filename.bak already exists, it will be named filename.bk1, or filename.bk2, etc.
You can find this setting by choosing Project > Settings... from the program menu and selecting the Advanced tab.
Make the patch rollback the already patched files to their original state if an error occurs during the patching stage, or if the user aborts the patching stage by clicking the Cancel button. The "patching stage" is the stage when the files are actually being patched on the user's system. No rollback is performed if the user cancels before or after this stage.
If the Backup patched files option is selected, the rollback will use the backed up files from the backup folder. If the Backup patched files option is not selected, the patched files will be backed up to a unique folder in the user's Temp folder.
You can find this setting by choosing Project > Settings... from the program menu and selecting the Advanced tab.
Require that the software must be closed before proceeding with the patch. If it is running, the user will be prompted to close it.
The filename of the program executable that must be closed.
The name of the program as it appears in the program's title bar.
