WinXcorners fails to install when trying to download the zip from google #84

Closed docquantum closed 2 years ago

When trying to install using choco install winxcorners:

ERROR: The remote file either doesn't exist, is unauthorized, or is forbidden for url 'https://doc-0k-a8-docs.googleusercontent.com/docs/securesc/ha0ro937gcuc7l7deffksulhg5h7mbp1/rmsbf3b1n6rg93jscurh80t5fps7m5l6/1562515200000/12606421919403606798/*/0B_iiJl28uix-MG84QTI2cFlNUWs?e=download'. Exception calling "GetResponse" with "0" argument(s): "The remote server returned an error: (403) Forbidden."

As the zip exists on Google Drive, the link will likely need to be periodically updated.

If instead the latest beta off of the GitHub is used, then this will likely not be an issue.

It looks like an abandonware. I planned to update one after release the stable version 1.2. However, the time has not yet come. I'll deprecate this pkg.

Yeah, I don't think it ever will be updated at this point unless someone new picks it up.

Unfortunately, I have not found any equivalent tools to add hot corners to Windows, and the 1.2 beta has been stable for me.

The 1.2 beta is not running for me due to access violation error. The 1.2.1 beta is running for me. I just submitted the beta version pkg instead of deprecate it. You can install one with this command. choco install winxcorners --version=1.2.1-beta -y

Seems the install went well.

The only issues I foresee is that there is little information on the chocolatey package descriptions about the beta, and also the fact that the install has no easy way to access it aside from going to the chocolatey ProgramData folder.

Thanks for the fix. If you find that the other things I brought up are worthwhile to fix, I'm sure they would be appreciated by others aside from me. Otherwise, feel free to close the issue.
