How to make Installer show the installed packages? [solved]

[arachnaut]

I have downloaded all the packages - MSoundFactory Essentials, Monastery Grand, the MDrummer ones including DrumEmpire2020.

On one computer I installed them through the menu 'Download & Install' button and they show up as installed.

But on a second computer they don't show as installed in the 'Download & Install' screen.

I installed these second ones by copying the downloaded packages to the second computer and then clicking on the 'Install manually downloaded products or MDrummer packs'.

Is there some way to get them to show up as installed? Maybe by copying some install file from the first computer to the second one?

Actually, a rudimentary search revealed the answer.
In the folder '%appdata%/MeldaProduction/Downloader' there is a file 'Settings.xml'.

The 'Installed' XML attribute had a 0 value. Just change to 1.

It now looks like this:

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Downloader>
	<item Download="0" Installed="1" name="MSoundFactoryEssentials"/>
	<item Download="0" Installed="1" name="MDrummerEssentials"/>
	<item Download="0" Installed="1" name="MonasteryGrand"/>
	<item Download="0" Installed="1" name="Studio2008-2018"/>
	<item Download="0" Installed="1" name="ElectronicGenres"/>
	<item Download="0" Installed="1" name="DrumEmpire2020"/>
</Downloader>

The "Install manually.." doesn't really mark it as installed. The problem here is that it doesn't know what it is. But perhaps it could check it based on the name. I'll make it happen for the final release.
