  • Bundle 32-Bit and 64-Bit of all WSCC tools

    About WSCC

    I am using WSCC (Windows System Control Center) to download and update the following tools:

    • MiTeC Utilities
    • NirSoft Utilities
    • Other Utilities
    • Sysinternals Suite

    At the download site of WSCC the portable versions are offered on top, installers are offered below the portable versions.
    I am also using the portable version of WSCC.


    Set-Up of WSCC

    When you extract the portable version to any folder and start it, then a Wizard shown, that helps users setting WSCC up correctly.

    In the first step you can select, what tools you want to install:
    1b597bb9-d6d6-417b-a113-5a891bbfb417-image.png

    For each tool set (like Sysinternals Suite) you can select various options (lie the installation path):
    6abbe750-8ce8-46cd-98ca-2fce8073bb0f-image.png

    The default folders for the tools are:

    %WSCCFOLDER%\Apps\MiTeC Utilities
    %WSCCFOLDER%\Apps\NirSoft Utilities
    %WSCCFOLDER%\Apps\Other Utilities
    %WSCCFOLDER%\Apps\Sysinternals Suite
    

    For the MiTeC Utilities, the NirSoft Utilities and also the Other Utilities you can also define, if

    • only the 32-Bit version should be installed (default option)
    • only the 64-Bit version should be installed
    • both versions (32-Bit and 64-Bit) should be installed

    Default Settings
    c89507e0-288e-49ed-b1d5-c1fe1a8f8a75-image.png

    My Settings
    6de20d91-4a1d-4e3a-966c-e77398ac2df1-image.png
    I selected to install both versions (32-Bit and 64-Bit) support VulnDetect.


    Bundle MiTeC Utilities

    The 32-Bit version and also the 64-Bit version of the MiTeC Utilities are all stored in the same folder.
    Here only the following two applications have a 32-Bit version and also a 64-Bit version:

    %WSCCFOLDER%\Apps\MiTeC Utilities\NetScanner.exe
    %WSCCFOLDER%\Apps\MiTeC Utilities\NetScanner64.exe
    
    %WSCCFOLDER%\Apps\MiTeC Utilities\XMLView.exe
    %WSCCFOLDER%\Apps\MiTeC Utilities\XMLView64.exe
    

    It should be easy to bundle them with one rule:

    %WSCCFOLDER%\Apps\MiTeC Utilities\{Application}.exe
    %WSCCFOLDER%\Apps\MiTeC Utilities\{Application}64.exe
    

    Please consider, that in the future some more MiTeC tools might have both versions!


    Bundle NirSoft Utilities

    The 32-Bit version of the NirSoft Utilities are placed in the folder:

    %WSCCFOLDER%\Apps\NirSoft Utilities
    

    The 64-Bit version of the NirSoft Utilities are placed in the sub-folder "\x64":

    %WSCCFOLDER%\Apps\NirSoft Utilities\x64
    

    Here some examples:

    %WSCCFOLDER%\Apps\NirSoft Utilities\AppReadWriteCounter.exe
    %WSCCFOLDER%\Apps\NirSoft Utilities\x64\AppReadWriteCounter.exe
    
    %WSCCFOLDER%\Apps\NirSoft Utilities\DevManView.exe
    %WSCCFOLDER%\Apps\NirSoft Utilities\x64\DevManView.exe
    

    It should be easy to bundle them with one rule:

    %WSCCFOLDER%\Apps\NirSoft Utilities\{Application}.exe
    %WSCCFOLDER%\Apps\NirSoft Utilities\x64\{Application}.exe
    

    Bundle Other Utilities

    The 32-Bit version of the Other Utilities are placed in the folder:

    %WSCCFOLDER%\Apps\Other Utilities
    

    The 64-Bit version of the Other Utilities are placed in the sub-folder "\x64":

    %WSCCFOLDER%\Apps\Other Utilities\x64
    

    Here some examples:

    %WSCCFOLDER%\Apps\Other Utilities\Everything.exe
    %WSCCFOLDER%\Apps\Other Utilities\x64\Everything.exe
    
    %WSCCFOLDER%\Apps\Other Utilities\putty.exe
    %WSCCFOLDER%\Apps\Other Utilities\x64\putty.exe
    
    %WSCCFOLDER%\Apps\Other Utilities\SumatraPDF.exe
    %WSCCFOLDER%\Apps\Other Utilities\x64\SumatraPDF.exe
    

    It should be easy to bundle them with one rule:

    %WSCCFOLDER%\Apps\Other Utilities\{Application}.exe
    %WSCCFOLDER%\Apps\Other Utilities\x64\{Application}.exe
    

    Bundle Sysinternals Suite

    The tools of the Sysinternals Suite are already bundled,
    Means: when you expand the Sysinternals Suite, then you see each tool only once.

    The only exception here is the tool Sysinternals RegDelNull, that is listed twice:

    C:\PortableApps\PortableApps\_WSCCPortable\Apps\Sysinternals Suite\RegDelNull.exe
    C:\PortableApps\PortableApps\_WSCCPortable\Apps\Sysinternals Suite\RegDelNull64.exe
    

    @Tom This is a issue, that sould be fixed!

    @Tom

  • Improvements for the CSV export

    I am using the CSV export on a daily base, it is really very useful.
    But sone things should really be improved.

    1. Recommended Version
      For some tools (like “MiTeC Icon Explorer") the recommended version (5.2.0) is older, than the installed version (5.3.0). In the list of applications you do not show a recommended version.
      In my CSV export I have 15 applications, where the recommended version is different, but only for 3 entries the recommended version is newer.
      Therefore, the recommended version should not be exported, when it is older or equal to the installed version.

    2. Export Tool Collections
      All tools from "Sysinternals" are bundled as "Sysinternals Suite".
      The whole suite including all apps is not exported.
      You should export the package headline ("Sysinternals Suite") and also all included tools.
      I do not know if it causes trouble when the package headline ("Sysinternals Suite") has an empty column "File".

    3. Identical naming for Apps in Tool Collections
      All tools from Sysinternals begin with the text "Sysinternals" (like "Sysinternals DebugView" or "Sysinternals Process Explorer") what is great, when you sort the exported CSV.
      Also all tools from MiTeC begin with the text "MiTeC".
      But only some tools from NirSoft begin with the text "NirSoft" and none of the tools from Nenad Hrg begin with "Nenad Hrg".

    4. Export status "Patch" and "Update"
      In the UAT instance you show the status "Patch" and "Update".
      This status is not yet exported, but it is really very helpful!

    Please consider these suggestions for the CSV export.
