Hello!
I had a shot at installing v0.3.0 earlier today, but the installer objected, saying that an older version was present and should first be uninstalled.
However, it didn't advise HOW to uninstall the older version. There was no uninstaller available in Windows 7 Programs and Features. So I tried installing v0.1.15 and then using its uninstall option, but still v0.3.0 objected about an older version.
I thought for a while, then searched the Notes 8.5.1 program folder and found three DLLs containing the string "Sky" and renamed them (for example, SkyTusExt.dll became SkyTusExt_OLD.dll). Perhaps I didn't have to rename them all, but anyhow I did. (Please advise which of these you use to trigger the error message.)
After that, c0.3.0 seemed to install without issues, but when I started the Notes Client or for some other reason my Windows 7 locked up entirely, and I had to reboot. After the reboot I looked at my names.nsf and the contacts didn't have Skype awareness, not were the three DLLs present in the Notes program folder, so perhaps the v0.3.0 installation failed. I didn't have any more time for testing today, had to start doing "real" work for my clients!
What do you think might have happened?
By the way, your plans for future releases -- as mentioned at http://dpastov.blogspot.com/2010/06/new-version-of-skytus-is-available_23.html -- seem to be exciting.
Cheers, Tony.
