A fix for Snapshot

As you all know, using Snapshot to switch between different versions of JDEdwards® EnterpriseOne® is not without its little issues:

* The shortcuts are all pointing to different folders, making it hard to find the correct one, plus it makes it easy to run the wrong one, screwing up half of the configuration;
* Snapshot does not restore all registry settings properly, causing innumerable (and different from release to release) issues;
* There's only one PATH variable, making it easy to run wrong executables (e.g.: RDA, FDA, UTB, etc. are started from FastPath using the "first one found" copy of the EXE) or to load wrong DLL's, again causing more grief.

To fix all of these issues, we have released a free piece of software, named OneExplorer - it's downloadable from our WEB Site.

Just unZIP the executable onto your Windows® Desktop and delete all - now superfluous - OneWorld® icons.

This executable will be the only one you need to run - it fixes the [known] OCX, etc. issues and then starts up the correct version of OneWorld® - the one you have restored with Snapshot last.

It also fixes the PATH variable for OneWorld®, just before it starts it up.

Enjoy!
