VO Plugin Wizard

Apr 16, 2016 Luxen link
Specifically for those who don't know how to navigate through a computer's file system, I made a simple wizard for unpacking plugins. The UI was built with MMF2, and the unpacking is done via Info-Zip's unzip tool. I have a few updates to do that will make the tool more useful, but it technically is "complete".

Community, let me know what you think about the program.

And its broken. Or, it was in the middle of recording yesterday...

It appears that it is not extracting the files where its supposed to; whether this is an issue in building the command or a security thing, im not sure yet. Ill remove the warning sign from the download link when I fix it, or at least put in error handling.

SORRY!

sorry, but work has been clogging up my computer time. I should have time free tomarrow night, and Ill throw in error handling then. I've also asked some knowledgeable people if there is a way around the securities, should that be the issue.

I found several bugs, which I ironed out. It now tries to make a test file, polling if it can write to the correct directory, as well as making sure the program has admin rights (it IS messing with stuff windows normally doesnt allow).

I also added a debug screen, and dropped the -u(pdate) flag from unzip. The latter means updates will ask you over command line to resolve, but allows it to unzip when nothing is being updated. Ill find a more sane way to do this eventually.
