[BUG] When I do a Vaicom update it just opens the update.cmd file in Notepad++. Doesn't update.. about vaicompro-community HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi Snacko, I'm unable to reproduce this, I gather you have .txt files opened always by Notepad++? It should run the command window and does on three systems I have tried it on.

The code calls for updater.cmd

{

    try
    {

        string basefolder = State.Proxy.SessionState["VA_APPS"] + "\\" + Products.Products.Families.Vaicom.VaicomProPlugin.rootfoldername + "\\";
        string localfolder = basefolder + "Updates" + "\\";

        if (File.Exists(basefolder + "updater.cmd"))
        {
            File.Delete(basefolder + "updater.cmd");
        }

        if (Directory.Exists(localfolder))
        {
            Directory.Delete(localfolder, true);
        }

    }
    catch (Exception e)
    {
        Log.Write("Cleanup: " + e.Message, Colors.Text);
    }

}```

As I said in the last sentence of my original post, I changed Notepad++ and removed it's .cmd file association. Then ran the update again, and it worked fine. It was not opened in Notepad++.

I think I have also had .bat files called from programs to run, and I also have .bat files associated with Notepad++. But they just run and don't open in Notepad++.

I think you understand what I mean? And if it doesn't do that on your systems, then maybe there is something with .cmd files on my system that is causing this. It just started with this last release. But I did just reinstall a fresh windows 10 pro about 5 weeks ago, so maybe something is different on this OS?

Anyhow, if nobody else has this problem, then don't waste any time on it. It was just surprising that it happened, and I had never seen that before..

Cheers!! And thanks for all of your great work!!
