There already is a "notes" field for each application. Do you need it to pop up after every application update or what is the behaviour you are after?

I added this feature for the next release. Implementation details:

  • Returning 1 from the script (PS / Batch) will ignore the update error (not show the error in the error window, but still display the failed state)
  • In PS the error information is available in the "apperror" variable (string: RequestedUrl, Exception: Error)

I fail to see how this helps. You will get a notification about invalid URLs when downloading applications in the error window. Persisting this information is somehwhat problematic considering the "dynamic" nature of applications. Unfortunately, the original issue in the forum has been deleted by the author so Ican't have a look at it anymore.

Can you tell me what additional value you expect from this feature?

I'll close this for now since I do not see a issue here currently. If a specific problem occurs, I will fix it though (please post in the forum) since there shouldn't be any portability issues with Ketarin.

I've been testing it, works fine for me. I use the following path:

"..\Downloads\cdburnerxp-setup-{version}.exe"

When I use Ketarin on a different drive letter, it successfully locates the existing file and determines that no update is necessary. Can you please post the log for your case? Also I'd suggest to continue discussing this in the forum.

OK I will check that. Maybe this is a problem that is already meant to be solved anyway.

Why isn't the variable "root" helping in this case? Also Ketarin stores the relative path as well and uses it as a "backup". What are the exact problems with portable usage?

Can this feature be considered done or are we still aiming for a simplification of that functionality? Like actual script based variables?
