[Tool] GD Defiler

Please try again, I updated the publish URLs to https, not sure if it’ll help but worth a shot.

I am also getting that same error. I tried re-downloading but it didn’t work.

same error

I get the same error when it’s directing to the https.

I uninstall the 0.2.2 ver and install new 0.2.3 ver. I can’t find GDDeFiler from start menu anymore. But why I can’t install new version. It’s said that ‘you cannot start application gd defiler from this location’ anytime. Can you help me to install this :confused::confused::confused:?

I’m going to do some research today to find a reasonably priced install packager solution, it’s getting to be more and more clear that the web publish isn’t a viable way to try distributing the application as too many people have issues and too many things can break it (AV, IE security zone settings, etc.).

I’m doing some network maintenance today so things will be going down here shortly (website, etc.), after it all comes back up I’ll see what I can do to remove the publish aspect of the GD Defiler.

Thanks for being patient with me guys!

Maintenance is over, everything should be up and running.

For those of you having trouble (or anyone else feeling adventurous), please try this packaged installer:

If you have the publish already installed, please uninstall first before using the installer above. In my testing this looks to be the way to go. :slight_smile:

Soul

I have used that installer after uninstalling the old one and can confirm that it works. Yay!

installed and working… thanks soul

Glad that resolves it! I’ll be working to add an update available check a la the old TQ Defiler to the GD Defiler, and will stick with the new installer. I’ll be pushing a publish after that forcing those still on the publish to switch (but only after I’ve got the update check incorporated).

Thanks for trying it out!

Updated the installer to require Windows 7 at a minimum, and to bootstrap the install of .Net Framework 4.7.2 at the end if needed. Please let me know if it causes issues.

Soul

The packaged installer did the trick for me too.

Thank you, sir!

Merry Xmas from Vietnam, Soul, and thank you a billion times for the packaged installer for GDDefilier !

(can’t quote your message cuz I just made this account minutes ago, lol)

I was feeling really bummed for the last few weeks because of the “mismatch” error, and I couldn’t install it from the site in your signature. Thanks to this alternative one though, everything finally worked again.
Much appreciated your efforts and works for this !

The package installer is working good for me. Thank you for your hard support. Happy late Xmas and Boxing day :smiley:

Merry Christmas to you as well! Glad it’s all working now! :slight_smile:

Happy Xmas back at ya! :wink:

Soul

Working great now. Thanks for your hard work and happy holidays!

having trouble installing this new version hmmm.

What kind of trouble?

Just posted a new version, this will begin the removal of the publish version of the GD Defiler.

0.2.3.3 (12/28/2018)
-Added update check with the ability to easily choose to update now or later.
-Disabled error reporting/suggestion screen for now as the email server no longer provides this functionality.
-Updated application manifest to require administrative rights in order to update/mod properly.
-Published version now forces use of packaged installer.

Please let me know if you have any issues with this new package.
