C:\VssHWProviderStarWind folder created on v8 install

I'm quite pedantic about keeping the OS drive root clear of unnecessary file/folders.

1) Can this folder be safely moved to reside with the rest of the install in c:\Program Files\Starwind ?
2) Maybe you should amend your installer to put this folder in a more appropriate location.

Thanks

Tim

Sounds like a problem with setup application. We'll take a look. Thank you!

Tim,
We have fixed this. Fix will be available with the next update on the web site, in about a week.
Thanks for feedback!

This folder contains Hardware VSS Provider. If you don't need this functionality, it can be removed: execute "UnInstallStarWindProvider.bat" with from this folder to unregister provider in OS, and remove the folder.
Script must be executed with Administrator access rights.

Ah yes that reminds me:

1) Can you put up a change log for v8?
2) Put the current version/build on the download page. It will save having to download just to check for an update.
