Extracting test.exe upon starting CP

Featured Replies

Hello guys,

I've just seen that upon starting CP it extracts a file called "test.exe" on the splash screen. I don't want to point any fingers but think it's rather a bad decission regarding filenaming given the things that happend some months ago.

Hi Gerald,

This is an April Fool's Day joke.
We are not actually calling any of our files test.exe

We will restore the previous line tomorrow.

You have a very dark soul mate *joke*.

Well, you got me :P...

Darn I wish I could get back on you (if we would share the same office, I would probably have swapped kbd and mouse cables, turned your display upside down,...)

by "tomorrow" do you mean Apr 2? because from what i can see, you posted this on Apr 1. it's now Apr 3rd and Im still seeing "test.exe" when I start CP. (using the experimental version)

There were a few things we wanted to include in the update, we had to push it until today.
