Thanks for your work on this, Patrick. Smile I added in path portablization and defaults for the open and save locations based on my Documents, etc folder detection code. I also added in a higher-res icon and UPX compressed it to save space, getting it down to 21MB.

I did not experienced this at any time nor Have had a reports like this.

OK I just replicated this, Win 8 64 bit...will install on the machine locally to see if it is from PA or from the base application. My guess is it is trying to hook an online manual

This is fixed in rev 2. Note that there is no help manual, so it doesn't make much difference other than preventing an accidental crash.

John never realized this issue, I e en just installed it on desktop, did not crash the program but clicking it did nothing anyways.

The entry in the Updater Database for updating from 1.0.2 to 1.0.2 Rev2 is incorrect.
(it's trying to update LibreCADPortable with the Platform v11.2 update installer)
The line which says:

UpdateFrom-1.0.2.2-DownloadFile=PortableApps.com_Platform_Setup_11.2_UpdateFrom_11.0.1.0_or_11.1.0.0_ONLY.exe

should say:

UpdateFrom-1.0.2.2-DownloadFile=LibreCADPortable_1.0.2_Rev_2_UpdateFrom_1.0.2_ONLY.paf.exe

Thank you.
