Taking Foreground during unpack

[o-o00o-o]

for 30 seconds or so with our package when deploying on our local machines we get a bunch of flashes where the foreground window is being taken and released creating a flashing and it means that you can't do anything else on the screen at the time

It happens during this verbose message:

Creating blah\unpack

Any chance this could be resolved as it is a bit antisocial 😂

Hello!

Thanks for the feedback. I'd like to get in touch about where the priorities are for the issues you've raised. I have an email address on my profile if you'd like to get in touch.

With regards to this issue: I think this is occurring in Teste-ProjectParamsMatch - what it is doing that it is checking that the project.params file out of the ispac and checking the contents in that match the json file provided.

https://github.com/sabinio/AssistDeploy/blob/6aa33438af99446a761445d8f860259cef5672a9/Functions/TestProjectParamsMatch.ps1#L58

I can try to suppress the output of the copyhere if I try to do something like this from the docs:

$shell.Namespace($unpacFilepath).copyhere($item, 4)T

UPDATE: I could use Expand-Archive.

However, and I'm loathe to say this, but I cannot replicate on my machine the flashing. I'll need to make the change then push a branch and maybe you can test for me?

Yeah great, happy to test.

Strange that it isn't happening for you. We are still running PS 5.1 due to .net framework dependencies for some of the ms sql

Also I think it will only flash if you make another application foreground while the unpack is happening

I've removed this check as it was causing lots of problems for people as per #40
