Looking for help with Standalone on Win 7

[Paul Hibbert]

Thanks for the suggestion Tom. Istalling over the 1st version does work OK, it's just that this guy decided to use the uninstaller and ran into serious problems, so I am a little concerned about the other 1200+ copies out there.

I'm hoping this was just a one off, but until I understand the issue I'm a little nervous. I think its wise to avoid installers in future unless they are really necessary, this was such a simple app that it didn't really need one, but I was trying to make life easier for the end users - lesson learnt - keep it simple!
