deploy tool flawed regarding WMP11 (1 Viewer)

[Spooky]

The deploy tool of RC3 asks me to manually download WMP11 and put it into the deploy location. However, it says I should download wmp11-windowsxp-x86-de-AT.exe, but the link provided only has the wmp11-windowsxp-x86-enu.exe. Furthermore, there simply is no wmp11-windowsxp-x86-de-AT.exe, only a wmp11-windowsxp-x86-deu.exe. After downloading and clicking next, the deploy tool tells me, that it can't find the file.

This is not a big deal of course, since I can simply rename the file to '...de-AT.exe' or install WMP11 beforehand. Just wanted to point that out.

Hi,

for reporting,
will be taken into consideration.

I just found a download that is in fact named wmp11-windowsxp-x86-DE-DE.exe so I guess there probably is a wmp11-windowsxp-x86-de-AT.exe too somewhere, but haven't found it so far

English version as well

Only one of my PCs needed the WMP11 update, & the file downloaded during install was not named the way the installer expected. Renamed file & continued.

Btw. is it planned for future releases of MP or rather the deploy tool, that it will download and install WMP11 by itself, just as it does so with the other dependencies?

Unfortunately it's not possible as there is a WGA control during both the download and the install...

Hm, the downloadlink provided by the deploy tool was without WGA check and the installation method used by the deploy tool also circumvents the WGA check. Otherwise I wouldn't have been able to install WMP11 on all clients (cough).

Highly depends on OS.
