Hi Pelle,
Withe the Beta #2 if I try to edit the manifest XML resource it gets corrupt.
Generally some random characters are appended to the end.
The only way to solve the problem is to edit externally then reimport it in the resources.

This code is actually untouched since 2003-02-02. If you are lucky it works. DWORD alignment in resource files affects the data size, so up to three random characters might appear. The alignment works for other resource types, with some internal structure that gives the actual size, but this is just a plain text file. I will try to fix it...

Thanks.
For now I'll try to write DWORD aligned  :lol:
