Why does uupdump/aria script etc never oblige my CustomAppsList.txt as a whitelist/blacklist for apps, any ideas?
I got it working: [Store_Apps] SkipApps =0 AppsLevel =0 StubAppsFull =0 CustomList =1 I'm assuming I tried using a combination of customlist with something else, thanks! Got to love uupdump/aria
SkipApps must be 0 (otherwise everything is skipped). AFAIK, the AppsLevel does not matter if CustomList is 1, as the latter overrides it. You should name your personal Apps list "CustomAppsList2.txt". If found, it is preferred over "CustomAppsList.txt", and updating the tool does not overwrite your personal list. @abbodi1406 - Would it be possible to apply the same mechanism to the settings, too? So, I could have my personal setting file "ConvertConfig2.ini", which is not overwritten on a tool update. Values are first read from "ConvertConfig2.ini", and only if they are not found there, from "ConvertConfig.ini" (and from the executable header itself, as third option).
@Carlos Detweiller Pros only use uupdump to download, conversion is done manually later with their custom choices CustomAppsList2.txt was made because uupdump website doesn't provide a way to control apps however, most settings in ConvertConfig2.ini are affected by choices in the website, supporting that file might cause a confusion if the user accidentally forgot about it and got surprised when his website choices are not reflected
That's exactly what I do (and also because I download on Windows 7). But I also tend to frequently overwrite my settings when updating. Talking about the standalone package, not the website (I'm using my own local UUP Dump app anyway). Then, the website would just not make use of the file at all, only the original one. I'm not talking about automatically generated ini, just a way to have local overrides.
