Change ProductVersion


Recommended Posts

Hi,

I am using 3.3.8.1 and Scite lite. I would like to change the ProductVersion of an exe file created with AutoIt.

I know it can be done with full version of Scite and AutoIt 3.3.14 (with AutoitWrapper of Scite). But since of many script breaking changes I don't want to upgrade to AutoIt 3.3.14; even 3.3.10 make problems with my code.

What options do I have to change ProductVersion?

You can simply only update to the full SciTE4AutoIt3 and stick with your old AutoIt3 version. .....should work fine.

That is what I tried first. I had AutoIt 3.3.8.1 installed with Scite lite. When I try to install Scite full version (4.2.0) I get errors already when installing. There are include files missing. I tried to create empty include files, but when there are other errors. The 3.3.8.1 version of AutoIt has problems with parts of the code from Scite.

I tried an older version of Scite (3.6), but with the same errors as 4.2.
If you can help on this, I would be happy.

Thanks a lot. That is of course possible. There are several tools available for doing the job of changing the productversion. I could also write a program in another language and so on. But I really would like to do it with AutoIt.

Are you getting Autoit3Wrapper errors or something?

You could always copy your 3.3.8.1 setup to a separate directory and install the latest and greatest AutoIt3 & FUll SciTE4AutoIt3 and then add the following directive to your script which still requires the old AutoIt3 version:

#AutoIt3Wrapper_AutoIt3Dir=c:\path\to\autoit3\3.3.8.1

I am back to this problem. Unfortunately I can't remember what I did in July 2020 exactly. I could find out that I installed full version of AutoIt 3.14.5 on that day in July.

But I can't figure out what I did exactly. I still want to change the product version and I need to compile with 3.3.8.1 since of script breaking changes. I have installed 3.3.8.1 with SciTE lite in C:\Program Files (x86)\AutoIt3. And I have installed full version of AutoIt 3.14.5 in C:\Program Files (x86)\AutoIt3_33145.

How can I now compile the .au3-files and change the product version? If I would just compile it with 3.14.5 I run into the script breaking changes.

You need to do the contrary.  Follow the steps :

1- uninstall autoit completely and remove all directories

2- install 3.3.8.1 in C:\Program Files (x86)\AutoIt3

3- rename the folder to C:\Program Files (x86)\AutoIt3.3.8.1

4- install 3.3.14.5 and FULL version of Scite in C:\Program Files (x86)\AutoIt3

5- open your script and add the following directive at the very beginning

#AutoIt3Wrapper_AutoIt3Dir=C:\Program Files (x86)\AutoIt3.3.8.1

ps. Tested with Alpha version  and working fine
