Possible windows association bug fix #5

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
I’ve been thinking about that windows file association bug and have an idea 
you could try to fix the problem. I noticed that the file/product version is 
staying 1.0.0.0 on all the exe files you update. Try this to see if it fixes 
the bug. Each time you update the exe change the file version to match the 
revision number. Example BGA_ver_85 would become file/product version 1.0.8.5 
that way window should see it as an update instead of the same file. It worked 
with a VB program I tested it with it should work with yours in Delphi as well. 
Hope this helps.

You can try rev87 and go to Help->Tools menu, there is now a File association 
request with current running "BGA.exe". I tested it only on Win7.

I'm not using file/product version because it cannot be automated.
