Keeping vendor licensed payware versions straight


Recommended Posts

Ok. At different times, I purchase two payware packages that include FSUIPC. Will these be download permits rather than included software so we do not get version clobbering from different vendor products as we install the apps?

And yes, it is about time you got royalties for royal work!

I have to allow vendors to package FSUIPC, as there will be many folks who (a) don't know what it is and don't care, and (b) have no access to the Internet or don't want to bother anyway.

I keep asking vendors to make sure their installation programs do NOT overwrite a later version if one is found already installed. Most do incorporate this check, and I write to those who don't and complain. But this is the most I can really do.

Note that there is no conflict regarding the *access* rights to fSUIPC these differing installs might have. Their access is through a key, which is operated at the time of the access. There is nothing different about the module itself. And if the user has purchased FSUIPC for the additional facilities, these are parts of his installation. He will want to preserve the Key file, or at least the information he entered when registering, but this should not be affected by vendor installs.

Hope this makes it clear.

Regards,

Pete
