Hey, I have used the new Install feature of Keatrin to get applications to run the downloaded file automatically. I ahve some apps whcih are downloaded as zip files. Is there anyway that I can get Ketarin to auto unzip the file immediatley after it's been downloaded?

Ok guys, Can one of you post a step by step foolproof way of downloading from Codeplex. I ahve tried following some of the things posted in this thread but can't get any of it to work. I am just confused. I'd appreciate a simpler tutorial if possible. Thanks Neil

How do you set Ketarin to download from codeplex? I'm having problems doing that. Thanks Neil

Right, I ahve just updated to the new version of Ketarin and had a run through of the install feature. I didn;t realise it had this. I now know what you were on about. Forget my previous post. A few more questions: 1. Where is the list of applications and settings actually stored? 2. If I opened Ketarin on a different PC and wanted to download and install only a few of the applications listed. What would be the best and quickest way? I'm asking this as the download location set by me for my personal Pc will not exist on their systems.? 3. What's the best way of downloading from codeplex?

How do you do this: create a custom app install list Basically I was after a solution that allowed me to keep one set of application preferences to download the latest versions and then be able to quickly choose whether i want the commands to run after for each one and whtheri actually want a specififc app downloaded in the first place (ie: on a different pc) I'll give the sourceforge solutions ago when i get backto my main pc. I have a very simple solution.Atleast so far it has worked perfectly for months and it does not require anything overly complex: *Go to SF and download the file you want.For example i use Firefox so i download the file and select Copy download url from Download Manager. *Then i paste this URL to Ketarin and substitute any constantly changing numeric parts(like version number) with variable that captures the info from the same SF site.As a mirror i always use mesh.dl For example: http://mesh.dl.sourceforge.net/project/sevenzip/7-Zip/{version}/7z{version:replace:.:}_extra.7z *Then add any other settings and it works.No need to use UA,Referer or any timeconsuming regex commands(well you could do it for version number tho...)

Hello I have 2 queries for all you experts here :-) 1.) I have a whole variety of applications configured in Ketarin which update a folder on my drive called "Setups". That folder contains the setup files that I use on a variety of different systems. It works perfectly. Now, I want Ketarin to auto update applications on my own personal PC by using the "run commands after update" area byinserting the silent switches and such. however, some of the applications i have set to update, I do not personally have installed on my system, nor do a i want installed. Is there a way to quickly enabled and disable the "commands to run after update" for specific applications so it will always download the latest files but will only auto update specific ones. Also, if i run ketarin on another pc with the same application database but only wish to choose a selection of the programs to download and auto update, how would i do this? 2.) I am having dreadful issues trying to set up auto downloading from sourceforge. Please can someone let me know how to do this as I get highly confused here. Thanks Neil

Hello, Is anyone able to try and show me how I can add both a 32 and 64 bit version of Logitech's Setpoint software to Ketarin? I know I can gett he 32bit version from filehippo but how do I get the 4 bit one in Ketarin?

ok, If I made an app rule for both stable and beta? How could I use both rules to download both the 32 and 64 bit versions?

what about global program settings from the options window?

Right, I have just added Ultramon as one of my applications and have added it as so: Name: Ultramon URL: http://www.realtimesoft.com/files/UltraMon_{version}_en_x64.msi Get variable from this page: http://www.realtimesoft.com/ultramon/download_beta.asp where it says "Current version: " Basically I want Ketarin to always download the 64bit version but the latest version and if a beta is available then the beta instead of the latest stable version. I have currenlty set it up as above but what happens when 3.0.7 beta becomes stable and no beta is out then my app rule will fail!

ok, What about the other questions above like export settings and app list and stuff for use on other machines?

Hey, no problem. Right, I read the first of those tutorials. I know what regexes are in basic terms but have not looked into them before. For some apps I added today I just fecthed the HTML of the download page and used the built in commands to set the start and end bits of code to a speciifc variable whcih i named {ver}. (I didn;t know there was a standardised way. I will aim to get these changed. How can I alter these variable names I have defined myself in bulk throguh all my added apps as I have quite a few now! How can I export all my program settings and list of apps and associated settings to a file so it's easy to import on a different computer. Also, I have my desktop PC and a netbook. I have Ketarin stored in a folder whcih is syncronised between the two. How can I get my list of apps and all settings to work when I open Ketarin on both the desktop and netbook as currently if I open ketarin on the netbook, no apps are listed. Thanks Regards, Neil

ok, I apologize. I am new to this program

Hey, I ahve been messing around with Ketarin today and just came back from being away for an hour and ran it to check for updates and all but 3 of them fail as in "The Operation Timed Out". They all worked earlier and my network connection is working. Any ideas? Thanks Regards, Neil

Hey, Any chance of anyone doing some easy to follow Video tutorials for Ketarin on maybe the following subjects: 1.) What Ketarin is 2.) How it's used with file hippo 3.) How it could be used for other apps 4.) Templates 5.) Using Ketarin for apps which are more difficult to setup I for sure would be interested in watching some of these to learn more about how to use it!
