I love AppTrap and use it everywhere. Thank you for your hard work.

As much as I love it though, I'm afraid to install it to computers of
persons that are not power users. They often confuse themselves when
they try to update an application and the usual "Leave files", "Move
files" dialog box appear.

I think it would be easier for such users (and probably all of us) if
the aforementioned dialog box would change in the following.

Thank you for reading, keep up the good work

I have the same pain as you and I love your design very much.

I want to go one step further, to add an extra checkbox saying "Ignore
this app", which will ignore the updates next time. What do you think
about this?

Cheers,
Libin

Sounds like a very nice option to have. But only if you can be
absolutely sure that AppTrap always understands which application to
"ignore" and doesn't confuses with others by error or whatever.

Sorry I'm not a programmer so I'm ignorant in what kind of control you
can achieve with such an option :o)

Cheers
