Thanks 2v2w32

Thanks for your work on this Bart.S. For the next release, we should update the launcher to Unicode. I think all we need to swap is the CreateMutexA and SetEnvironmentVariable to their 'w' versions. I updated the ReadINIStrWithDefault to the current version already.

I've tried that already. 335x6m

I've tried that already. About a month ago, I noticed that Eclipse Portable stopped working with MinGW Portable, and I tracked the problem down to ANSI and Unicode. Changing SetEnvironmentVariableA to SetEnvironmentVariableW didn't do anything. I'm not sure about CreateMutexA/CreateMutexW but I would expect it to be the same.

Difference yz5g

If you compile with NSIS ANSI, you need to use SetEnvironmentVariableA (or just SetEnvironmentVariable) and CreateMutexA. With NSIS Unicode, you need to use the W equivalents.

Drop A 6u6v1u

Just drop the A. Then SetEnvironmentVariable, CreateMutex, etc. will use A in ANSI and W in widechar.

Yeah, like I said, that's 44n18

Yeah, like I said, that's what I did. SetEnvironmentVariableW with NSIS Unicode didn't set the Environment Variable, and while making no change to the code, (other than switch W to A) it worked fine with the ANSI version.

In Use 6ph68

It's in use in dozens of launchers as well as PAL, so it does work. Not sure why you were having issues.

I updated the ReadINIStrWithDefault [...] Pardon Honestly, I don't see a difference.
Oh, is the splash designer on holidays? Just curious. Smile

1.1 4j335q

The original ReadINIStrWithDefault has an issue where it erases one of the standard variables (I think $2 or something). Generally, you're not using any of them at the start of the launcher script, so it doesn't matter anyway.

MuseScore has a built-in splash and I couldn't find where it was to add a simple 'portable' and USB key (ala LibreOffice, etc). We don't usually disable internal splashes and then add our own. If you can find it, I'll add it for the next release.

Sure, 6g5u3m

but 1.1 was used in Pre-Release 1. Nothing changed. Blum
For the splash, resource hacking is needed (#).

Mixup, Nope 6d733v

I must have been thinking of a different app. And you can't resource hack that file. All that shows up is the icon files. (Yes, even when not UPX compressed)
