Install/Uninstall
If you wish to place executable files on your own, you can extract them from installer file (.msi) by the following command:
msiexec /a [source msi file path] targetdir=[destination folder path (absolute path)] /qn
In such case, please note the following:
- The settings file will be created at:
[system drive]\Users\[user name]\AppData\Local\Wifinian\ - When you check [Start on sign in], a registry value will be added to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
Remarks
- To rename a wireless profile, press and hold its name.
- Rescan of wireless networks by OS itself is triggered by some actions and if no such actions take place, seems to be performed once per one minute.
- Automatic connection by Engage function applies only to wireless profiles whose automatic switch are enabled. If a profile whose automatic switch is not enabled has been already connected, automatic connection will not be executed.
- When you connect to a wireless network by OS's wireless menu, the order of wireless profiles may be automatically changed.
- A wireless profile is associated with a specific wireless adapter and if the adapter is not in place, such profile will not be shown.
