Hi,
Since the beginning of Wampserver 3, I have installed and uninstalled:
- Wampserver 3.0.0 32 bit 32 times on W7 and 16 times on W10
- Wampserver 3.0.0 64 bit 26 times on W7 and 15 times on W10
- Wampserver 3.0.4 32 bit 18 times on W7 and 12 times on W10
- Wampserver 3.0.4 64 bit 16 times on W7 and 13 times on W10
- Wampserver 3.0.6 32 bit 41 times on W7 and 25 times on W10
- Wampserver 3.0.6 64 bit 36 times on W7 and 19 times on W10
- Wampserver 3.1.0 32 bit 34 times on W7 and 20 times on W10
- Wampserver 3.1.0 64 bit 26 times on W7 and 18 times on W10
That is a total of 368 times (minus four uninstallations).
Not once have I seen the phenomenon you describe and yet I use the command windows a lot when I'm developing and checking Wampserver installation procedures.
When installing Wampserver, only two keys are written to the registry:
- 1 - The Wampserver uninstall key:
-- Wampserver 32 bit
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{wampserver32}_is1]
or with Windows 64 bit
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{wampserver32}_is1]
-- Wampserver 64 bit
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{wampserver64}_is1]
- 2 - The key indicating that Wampmanager is started as an administrator:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers]
"J:\\wamp\\wampmanager.exe"="RUNASADMIN"
"J:\\wamp64\\wampmanager.exe"="RUNASADMIN"
And that's all!
When launching wampmanager.exe there are no writes or changes in the registry.
The only way to read, write or modify the registry with wampmanager.exe (Aestan Tray Menu) is to use variables Type: registry;. There are no such variables in wampmanager.tpl or wampmanager.ini. It is therefore impossible for wampmanager to write to the registry.
> HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor -> AutoRun which held a value of '& exit'
This key is not written by Wampmanager.One of the parameters for opening a command window is cmd.exe /D
/D Disables the execution of AutoRun from the Registry.
If /D has NOT been specified in the command line, then CMD.EXE will start by searching for the following REG_SZ/REG_EXPAND_SZ Registry variables and if one or both are present, they will be executed first
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor\AutoRun
and/or
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor\AutoRun
And, as you end up with Autorun = &Exit, the command window closes immediately.
The Autorun value is very often used by viruses or malware or even "non-standard" versions of Windows 10, for example specific to some PC providers.
I advise you to run your command windows from a shortcut created with in the properties:
- Target = C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /D
- Shorcut tag -> Advanced button -> Check Run as an administrator
OK - Applied - OK
If you look at the file changelog.txt or readme_update3. x. y.txt you will see a number of "Fix bug" or "Correct bug", which means I recognize the problems that are reported to me and do everything I can to fix them.
But I can't recognize a "problem" that has never been replicated in three years of developing and using Wampserver.
