i had posted here earlier today, but it seems that someone deleted it.

Why cant you just use ONE topic to cover all info about your release? You already have another here anyway. There's no need for 2 topics to cover the same thing.

Sorry, I came here for the first time to publish a theme. Because the first published theme cannot upload attachments and pictures, I was worried that the external pictures and attachments could not be displayed and downloaded, so I published it to the download area again. I originally thought that the download area and topic posts They are separate. I didn’t expect that a new theme would be opened when the download area was released, so I repeated it. I will pay attention next time, please forgive me for the inconvenience! At the same time, I hope that the moderators or forum administrators with delete permissions can delete this topic, thank you!

Hello,

 

You couldn't upload those things because they are restricted to new members. I've upgraded your account to "advanced" level and those restrictions should be gone. It is OK to keep two threads, usually that happens because one is used for development talks (very technical, brainstorming, etc) and the topic created automatically from the Downloads portal should be used for answering questions (support) to normal end-users.

 

No need to delete, I will just include the tag "development".

 

:cheers:

First lots of thanks for providing coolInstall tool with such a simple interface. It will be nice to have command line support in CoolInstall similar to what we already have in WinNTSetup by JFX. How coolInstall is better than WinNTSetup ? Please provide dark theme support within CoolInstall so that visually impaired users can also enjoy it within from WinPE.

Thanks & Regards

Thank you for your interest in coolInstall. You mentioned that CoolInstall supports the command line. I will consider this feature later. Due to limited development tools, it is somewhat difficult to support dark themes.

Hello YamingGrhapati

Thanks for sharing your useful program.

When downloading I recognized filename is CoolInstall8.0.830 where version should be 2.0.830.

Is this intended?

 

Best regards   T.
