Installer Message "This program might not have installed correctly" - Elemental - 7th Dec, 2013 06:16 AM

Hello,
I received my Raspberry Pi today and just used the Installer to install xbian to my SDCard.
Everything worked well so far. But after closing the installer, Windows (8.1) asked me, if the programm installed correcty.

If you want to get rid of this annoying message, you might want to add some compatibility information to your installer's manifest.
Adding this will prevent the message:
Code:
<compatibility xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:compatibility.v1">
  <application>
    <!--The ID below indicates application support for Windows Vista -->
      <supportedOS Id="{e2011457-1546-43c5-a5fe-008deee3d3f0}" />
    <!--The ID below indicates application support for Windows 7 -->
      <supportedOS Id="{35138b9a-5d96-4fbd-8e2d-a2440225f93a}" />
  </application>
</compatibility>

Don't know who is responsible for the installer here, just wanted to let you know that there's an easy way to solve the problem.


Best Regards
Elemental

Many thanks for the information. We will take this information on board - I never see this as I am still (and will continue to be) on XP.
