Good thought, though it didn't work. But it gave the a similar idea. Create a directory called Skype-Setup.exe within Data\SkypeData. This prevents it from downloading it. I've added code for this to the next release.Sweet! Thanks for the input, Midas, and to John for implementing the fix. is it stealth?

After I purged my Data\ folder and logged into Skype again, Skype no longer auto-downloads the Skype-Setup.exe file.Perfect! is it stealth?

It will be handled for existing installs when upgrading as well. freakazoid Posts: 1239 Joined: Wed Jul 18, 2007 5:45 pm Re: Portable Skype (AKA sPortable) #130 Post by freakazoid » Tue Dec 05, 2023 6:45 pm freakazoid wrote: ↑Thu Nov 03, 2022 4:00 pmGoing to post this here since I do not have an account over at portableapps.com. Hopefully @JohnTHaller sees it.sPortable 8.90.0.405 cannot be installed. I'm getting the following when running sPortable_8.90.0.405_online.paf.exe:Code: Select allOutput folder: c:\apps\sPortablePreparing to upgrade sPortable...Create folder: C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Temp\nsyC8AE.tmp\DownloadedDownloading Skype...Installing sPortable...Rename: C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Temp\nsyC8AE.tmp\Downloaded\Skype->C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Temp\nsyC8AE.tmp\Downloaded\Skype-Setup.exeCreate folder: C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Temp\nsyC8AE.tmp\DownloadedDownloading Skype...Installing sPortable...Rename: C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Temp\nsyC8AE.tmp\Downloaded\Skype->C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Temp\nsyC8AE.tmp\Downloaded\Skype-Setup.exeDelete file: C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Temp\nsyC8AE.tmp\Downloaded\Skype-Setup.exeThe downloaded copy of Skype is not valid and can not be installed.

Latest version of sPortable (8.109.0.209) fails to install. Next I tried to install the last few versions of sPortable down to 8.106.0.212 and am still getting the same problem.
