Before you install
- Runs on: Windows. the application must be 4.0.7 to 4.1.6.
- Space: about 256 KB for the download, plus [WORKING SPACE] while it runs.
- Rights: an elevated prompt (it writes outside your profile)
- Know first: [PREREQUISITE] — what has to be true before this tool will run at all.
Download and verify
Take the build for your platform from the [SHARE] and check it against the digest on the shelf row before you unpack anything.
certutil -hashfile feedfold-1.9-win64.zipExpected: ce365fe2e985. The shelf row carries the same digest.
Install
Copy it into place and put it on the path. Nothing here installs a service or a scheduled task.
Windows
Unpack the zip, then:
xcopy feedfold-1.9-win64 C:\Tools\feedfold /E /I
setx PATH "%PATH%;C:\Tools\feedfold"
feedfold --versionCheck it worked
Check the version first, then run the one command the tool exists for:
feedfold --version
feedfold driver --re-register
2 drivers re-registered, 0 failuresExpected output is the line shown above; anything else means [TO DO: write the failure list].
Removing it
Delete the folder and drop the path entry. The tool keeps no state of its own.
rmdir /s /q C:\Tools\feedfoldIf it goes wrong
- [KNOWN FAILURE 1] — the usual fixes for this tool have not been written down yet. Add them the second time somebody hits one.
- Wrong error number or a fault you cannot name: run the tool's own diagnostic first (shelf row).
- Before any repair that writes to a store, take the export — backoff is the tool for it.
