Add support for Live Soft Action installers (LopeSoft)

Anoniem 11 jaar geleden • bijgewerkt 11 jaar geleden • 3
I came across an installer that has a cluster of offers Unchecky misses before actually downloading and executing an msi for the product in question. The downloader is available here. (LopeSoft FileMenu Tools)

I had some trouble identifying the company behind the actual installer. It doesn't look like something LopeSoft themselves designed.

I noticed that it downloads the msi to a temporary folder. A more efficientway of bypassing the downloader/installer could be something like the following:

  1. Detect a downloader / installer of this type.
  2. Determine the URL the downloader intends on using by examining the EXE. (hopefully this is possible)
  3. Terminate the installer / downloader (possibly notifying the user.)
  4. Download the MSI / installer directly.
  5. Execute the downloaded file under the same user account the downloader was initially executed as.
This process may also work for downloaders like the CNET downloader.

Alternatively, a browser extension may be able to redirect the download to the actual installer instead of the downloader. I'm not sure how possible this is.

Hi,
Are you talking about the statistics checkbox?


Unchecky does not handle those kinds of checkboxes. Statistics/crash reports are not a PUP.

Update: marked as declined, please leave a comment if you meant something else.

Lost all entries in my HOSTS file

Anoniem 10 jaar geleden • bijgewerkt 6 jaar geleden • 2

I've had the exact same problem as this guy


http://unchecky.userecho.com/topic/732301-your-update-to-the-hosts-file-deletes-any-valid-entries-in-the-file-not-acceptable/


I had a LOT of custom entries in my HOSTS file, including a lot to get rid of ads, but in the past couple of days I've noticed I am seeing ads again, so I looked in my HOSTS file, and the only entries are for localhost and Unchecky, as much as I liked it, and it seems to work, if it's destroying my HOSTS file, I have no choice but to uninstall it!!


There isn't a backup of the HOSTS file at all, and I'm not sure I have a recent one myself, I hope you don't just dismiss this like the other guys, and actually have a look, obviously it's a REAL BUG, and causing REAL PROBLEMS, could you at the least attempt to work out why, rather than just dismiss it because of "a lack of feedback", not that I can think of what else could be added. If you need I can include a copy of the hosts file since it's now very short ...

Thank you for the detailed report, it does sound like a real issue.

As explained in the other thread, Unchecky uses special comment markers to mark the beginning and the end of the block that it added. We tested the mechanism extensively, and found that it works very well.

One issue that I can think of is that your hosts file is being managed by some other program, which reordered the comment blocks of Unchecky. Is that the case?


One possible way to remedy similar problems in the future is to backup the hosts file before modifying it. We will consider it for the future versions of Unchecky.

Портабельная версия программы не планируется. Так как Unchecky интегрируется в систему, сделать истинно портабельную версию не получится, так же как не получится, например, сделать портабельный антивирус.

All three of your reports are installers based on installCore.
one, two, three.
They should be handled by v0.2.1.

It presents no risk as far as I can tell. Thing is even If I want to continue with the install I can't use the mouse anymore, I have to use the keyboard to navigate throught the installer.

Unchecky ist das beste Programm, das ich jemals hatte

Anoniem 12 jaar geleden • bijgewerkt door Unchecky 11 jaar geleden • 1
Es funktioniert so super und still im Hintergrund, Ich wollte es nicht glauben, aber es stimmt und das Programm hat mich schon vor vielen ungewollten Programmen und Toolbars bewahrt.
