Important Note about installing a new version
To avoid problems, you must follow these steps when installing or registering a new
version of the preview handler.
- Close all Windows Explorer instances where the preview handler is active or has been
used. Remember that the DLL remains in memory until Windows Explorer is closed.
- Unregister the previous version by running the uninstaller located in
C:\Program Files (x86)\TheRoadToDelphi\DelphiPreviewHandler or
C:\Program Files\TheRoadToDelphi\DelphiPreviewHandler.
- If you install the preview handler manually, you must unregister it using
UnRegister.bat
running as administrator.
- Now proceed with the installation of the new version.
Looking for the installer? Check the Release Area.
