Got it. More precisely, even for nightly builds, at least installers until 6.2.0.2827 (2013-03-29) were doing well with Windows XP.

If it is something like renaming the library, changing a bit system setting, editing slightly registry, or so on that is able to do as a pure user to disable that library, would give it a try supposing it does not take too much your time to instruct it.

Understand. Even the expiration of their official support of Windows XP is in 11 months, ought to be questioning on and/or actually raise questions directly to him how he can do like that. Wonder how much MS-based software developers and users will be suffering more from such technological...

So you don't like XP people to use Eraser any more?(^_^) :) The forum gets friendly back with Firefox people again anyway.(^^) Thanks for this.

As far as I am aware of, the Eraser installer since 6.2.0.2833 (2013-04-23) shows "This is not a valid W32 application" and fails to be invoked on Windows XP SP3 (32bit). This continues till the recent 6.2.0.2940 (2013-05-11). These installers, however, all work well on Windows 7 SP1 (32bit)...

When right-clicking on a short-cut, i.e., a link to a file or a folder, it shows two same entries for Eraser context menu. I am not quite sure since which version it has been behaving so, but it does with Eraser 6.1.0.2214 and 6.1.0.2221 at least, on Windows XP. Thanks.

Sure. I'll try, and make the story shorter but clearer. I remember that the check box "Integrate Eraser into Windows Explorer" defaults to "checked" and the "Default file erasure method" to "Gutmann (35 passes)" when I installed the Eraser 6 for first time. I unchecked "Integrate Eraser into...

Thanks Joel. I found the file Task List.ersx, deleted it, uninstalled the old, and installed 6.0.6 r1376. It works. Just for accuracy, though %APPDATA% on my system indicates "drive:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\" where I searched before my reported here yesterday, Task...

I updated Eraser from 6.0.6 r1372 developing version to r1376 stable one on my Japanese Windows XP SP2, which causes the Eraser application crashing and a window prompting "Do/don't send report to Microsoft?" appearing everytime when I tried to start it. Before I do so, I have ever tried to...
