Thanks for confirming.

Actually, should be fixed now.

What URL is it on? BTW, 16.0 is no longer in beta.

Thanks, it's an issue that only occurs if you use grouping in flat directory comparison mode. We'll have it fixed in the next builds of 15 and 16 beta.

I can't reproduce this. Maybe something in your options?

It should not ask if there are no previous versions left.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\ExamDiff Pro 16.0_is1]

This is not a previous version though, it's the current one. The setup does not need to uninstall it, it just does upgrade in place.

Yes, now it's a bug in 16 beta, the fix will be in the next build.

Please use the other topic we already have for installation issues.

You can find it here attached.
I do have the targets with your folders. Not sure why but we are changing the way this works so there's no point in trying to debug your issue.

Like here?
I'll need your test sample to debug.

Please look yourself for XP. (See attachment).
I'm unable to find the log file for 10.
Please use OS version along with the bitness, it's hard to follow sometimes. The log you attached shows that a previous installation was found, so the Uninstall ...

It's supposed to show (and does) show targets for shortcuts and symbolic links:

N.B. In the 32 bit version the "target" column is not allowed.
You mean Windows XP, right? If so, targets are only available on Vista and up


P.S. Intalling v. 16.0.0.7 the 32 ...

Are you saying that a lnk file which contains (as target) eg "C:\This\That\Other\Somefile.xyz" will ALWAYS be shown as not equal to one that contains (say) "C:\This\That\%blah1%\%blah2%" no matter what the two environment variables' values happen to be for the person who is running the compare? (Or ...

I'm not sure what problem has to be solved here. LNK files are just binary files, and they are compared as such. The target column is purely information (in case of LNK files), and it is hidden by default.

The original issue, again, will be resolved. We are not likely to have an option specific ...
