SetupBuilder update

Hi Folks,

I just heard from Friedrich Linder about SetupBuilder:

Hi Charles,

it’s so good to hear from you, my good old friend. I am still alive and working hard on SetupBuilder. Trademark for SetupBuilder has been renewed for another ten years last month. I have purchased new EV dongle, EV cloud and even the brand new Microsoft Trusted Signing certificates in August. SetupBuilder 2025 will support all of these. Unfortunately, I have lost access to NNTP newsgroups some time ago. Our Support E-Mail is busy as usual.

Please tell our Clarion friends that I’ll make an SetupBuilder announcement very soon. SetupBuilder will continue to support all modern code-signing certificates (I had to rewrite major parts of the compiler to handle it).

There are already new forums setup on the Lindersoft website for SetupBuilder 2025:

You can see that the patent for SetupBuilder was just renewed in August 2024:

So it looks like SetupBuilder will continue to be the installation building tool that we all depend on.

Charles
