Whatis there? The following garbage is there. Microsoft Autoupdate Exclusive test package, Microsoft Autoupdate Reboot test package, Microsoft Autoupdate testpackage1, Microsoft AUtoupdate testpackage2, Microsoft Autoupdate Test package3.

Someone decided to trash the one part of Windows that was usable? The file system is no longer usable. The registry is not usable. This program listing was one sane place but now it is all crapped up.


But that is just the start of the crap. Later I have listed things like Windows XP Hotfix see Q329048 for more information. What is Q329048? Why are these series of patches listed here? Some of the patches just things like Q810655 instead of saying see Q329048 for more information.


So after more than an hour of craziness and making my programs list garbage and being scared and seeing that Microsoft.com is a terrible website I haven't run Moviemaker and I haven't got the plus package


The lack of attention to usability represented by these experiences blows my mind. I thought we had reached a low with Windows Network places or the messages I get when I try to use 802.11. (don't you just love that root certificate message?)


Can you guys coordinate between you on how to deal with this situation on our bits? Bill's situation is worse than my personal experience but still, this aspect of the system needs to be looked at carefully and become a sign off item for each release.


I don't know what it means to "own website issues", nor am I yet sure the best way to handle the complex mess of coordinating between product teams, WU, and MS.COM. Dave, would you please forward the other reply you mentioned?


I have always been concerned about this and feel that this has a lot of engineering implications. I also feel that the reason is it such a mess is because marketing teams own release to web in this company. Frankly, we should be up in arms about this and want to program manager and develop whatever code we need to to ensure that every customer that even thinks they want to download our bits can do so in as easy and painless a way as possible. Downloading is the first step to setup and we should think of them equally or as one experience. But, if you want nothing revolutionary and want to band-aid (which is fine and understandable) then I agree with your plan to give it to Dave.


I don't think you can abdicate this entirely to marketing. If WU is the preferred way to deliver bits to end users we all need to drive WU to deliver what we need, both individually and as a collective request from DMD.


One of the biggest issues today is that WU provides no way to promote a download to an end-user. We want to promote MM2 and WMP9S to end-users as something new and cool that they can get for Windows. Three lines of text describing it buried under "Windows XP" in a page that the user has to purposefully go find just isn't good enough. Why can't the WU client-side piece proactively display a bubble "Look! Cool, new features for Windows XP" and the option to display a much richer "advertisement" for the feature if the user wants to read more?


Other issues -

MUI - I guess this is getting fixed now but it's always been an issue for us

Link to download through WU - why can't we send a user right in to WU to get MM2 without them having to wade through the whole site?

Critical updates that aren't really critical - if you machine is behind a firewall many just aren't critical

Too many fixes bombarding users all the time - I routinely ignore them now and perhaps update once a month as otherwise I'd be rebooting all the time

WU's inflexible release schedule. If there is a major tradeshow at which we want to announce we need flexibility in timing the release


So, I take from this that we have lots of opinions and input. However, no one appears to be saying that we, WMPG, are chartered and/or should own this. So my feedback on the thread would then be that Dave should take ownership for driving groups around today's inconsistencies, and that we should send this mail to Bharat (owns WU) as well and ask who in his team can take requirements from DMD.

In the Webinar conducted by Mr.Travis - he demonstrated the Home Automation and he was telling that he had done using RBPi 4 for his Home Automation Project along with Ignition Maker Edition.

Can we get access to any Video, how he started working on the RBPi 4 for the Home Automation Project.


Is it possible to install Maker Edition 8.1 on a Raspberry Pi 4b 8GB? I know the post also mentions installing Edge. However, I would like to run Maker Edition on a headless Pi server and acess via a remote client.


Ignition Edge, available starting with version 7.9.2, is a new stripped-down version of Ignition that is specifically designed for use as an Edge of Network device. It is well suited for devices wi...


For anyone reading this in the future, the instructions for installing Edge mentioned in this thread can be followed for the most part to install Maker Edition, however a couple of changes need to be made.


I was able to install 8.1 Maker Edition on a RasPi 4b running 32-bit RasPi OS Lite. The Pi is cabled to the router and I configured the Pi has a headless server. I used the Ignition Installtion for Linux 32-bit ARM architectures (Ignition-linux-armhf-8.1.10.zip).


If using the 32-bit Raspi OS lite, you will need to create a Downloads or other temp folder in the home directory of the Pi and move the installation file to it. (sftp via filezilla, etc.). At this point you can unzip the installation file as instructed.


The Edge installation instructions in this thread call to change file permissions to make them executable, the instructions omitted the ignition-util.sh file. You should use the following command instead:


Thanks, That is good to know. Although I had to download the 64-bit version directly from the Raspi Foundation mirror. I wasnt able to find an option for it in the Pi Imager. Which is weird becasue I could have sworn it had been there last year. I think the Raspi Foundation removed the 64-ibit version out of the Pi Image options. Anyway, I went ahead and configured using the 32-bit version. Which is working pretty well as-is. I may not go to the 64-bit afterall.
