Hi.
Can anybody tell me what's wrong with the attached RightNote SPS file.
Validation says OK and the download puts the zip file in the ...\AppData\Local\Temp\.. where it is unpacked to ...\AppData\Local\Temp\RightNote.
Then something goes wrong, and I get an error message (.exe missing) at the end.
The destination folder RightNote_3.2.3 is created in my test folder, but it only contains a config.ini file from Rightnote. The remaining files are left in the AppData folder.
I've tried several computers, different/shorter paths but I can't get to work. Am I overlooking something ?
Kind regards Regmos

Hi Regmos.
You did everything right and it is probably a bug in the SPS Builder. In fact if you put your SPS file inside the special SyMenu folder [SyMenu]\ProgramFiles\SPSSuite\SyMenuSuite\_CacheCustom you will be able to install it in SyMenu without any problem. I create this folder exactly to include a custom SPS file.
I see you already load the SPS on the cloud and since it is correct I'll publish ASAP then, quietly , I'll try to find and fix this annoying bug on the SPS Builder.
I ask you only a little modification. The program licence is freeware but it should be more correct to signal that the freeware version is only a trial version. Do you agree?
Thank you so much for your help!!

Hi Gianluca.
You're welcome. It's nice with a forum, where the developer plays such an active role. You are almost the Donald Lessau of launchers.
...but it should be more correct to signal that the freeware version is only a trial version. Do you agree? I wasn't sure what to name it, as the trial is optional on first launch. You can change it as you like.
Kind regards Regmos

Well... SPS is too young, I think I'm the only person in the world able to reply to such a question
I read well the license of RightNote. Ok, it's a mess (trial for professional and then go to the freeware...) and I haven't understood well. Anyway you are right the program is fully freeware. No need to change the SPS. And it is online!
Thank you.
