I am running 2003 SE. I have noticed problem when I upgrade programs and use the FileDialogChanger 1.65 (and the other versions). If for example I want to install my SK Tools upgrade to \storage card\My Programs\

(I am just using SK Tools for an example. This is a general problem with all upgrade installations).

What happens is that it adds another SK Tools directory within the existing SK Tools directory.

Example: I started with the first instal of SK Tools at \storage card\My Programs\
This results the creation of a new directry (as it should of)
\storage card\My Programs\SK Tools\

Then I try to upgrade SK Tools

I select storing the program atain at:
\storage card\My Programs\

It will not let me. It automatically opens the existing direcrory of the old instalation:
\storage card\My Programs\SK Tools\

If I click install then I get the new installation added this way:
\storage card\My Programs\SK Tools\SK Tools\

The only way to stop this is to uninstall the old version or delete the directory.

Is there a registry hack that needs to be done to stop this so it will just install over the old installation and keep all my .ini files and such (with other installations)?
