Installer install-interception.exe opens then immediately closes. #29

Closed dukew13 closed 8 years ago

I've made sure that the program is running in an administrator cmd prompt and tried compatibility settings, neither have fixed the issue.

Without further information I can't help you, me and others are using it without problems. I'm gonna close the issue in about a week if there's no activity.

I managed to force an install, sorry for the useless post. The executable wouldn't open unless I specified the path in a cmd prompt and I wasn't noticing the spaces in it were throwing an error.

@dukew13 thanks anyway. If you can describe your problem exactly it may be helpful for a potential fix. I don't recall having issues executing the program (from the command prompt) from a directory containing spaces.

I'm not exactly sure what happened but more or less opening the install-interception.exe would close immediately after opening, so I had to use "C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\Interception\command line installer\install-interception.exe" /install in an administrator level cmd prompt (opened using windows + x). I'm relatively new to windows command prompt so I know it was my fault that I forgot quote around the path, though I'm unsure why it didn't work when I tried to open the application directly. I'm using Windows 10 Home Edition 64 bit. Also, to uninstall I needed to reboot, quickly enter "C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\Interception\command line installer\install-interception.exe" /uninstall as shown in another closed issue. I'm sure most of this was obvious to a experienced developer, but sadly not a lot of discussion has been made about this API outside of this Git. Thanks for replying so quickly, also.

Ok no problem. I can see it was a usage problem indeed, not a bug. Windows requires quoting paths with whitespace, you may also opt to cd into the executable directory and just execute it from its name, not the entire path, this is more common to do.
