AppSnap 1.3.0 - Simplify Software Installation

AppSnap 1.3.0 (Windows, Freeware, 5.25MB) [download via Fileforum] is an application that simplifies installation of software. It automatically figures out the latest version, downloads the installer and then installs the software in one seamless step. AppSnap is primarily designed for Windows which does not have any decent package manager such as APT and RPM as in the Linux world.

Changes:

  • Bulgarian translation has been added
  • Latest AppSnap database is now procured from http://appsnap.genotrance.com/db/ which will soon host a web-based application that will simplify managing the application list
  • Fixed a bug (issue 28) where ZIP directory structure was not being extracted correctly
  • Fixed pre and post uninstall which were being ignored for ZIP files without an embedded installer
  • Uninstalling a zipped application was not removing it from the installed applications list
  • Fixed Paint.NET download filename, installer and uninstall
  • Renamed Gaim to Pidgin and adjusted all scrape details accordingly
  • Fixed ImageMagick version regex
  • Fixed scrape and download URLs for Adobe Reader
  • Fixed Yahoo Messenger version regex
  • Fixed Gimp installer filename, moved from .zip to .exe
  • Fixed K-Lite Mega Codec Pack scrape URL
  • Fixed Tortoise SVN regex and download filename
