... and sighs deeply.
I have great pains. Our application consists of a launcher and various dlls.
The launcher looks at the fileserver for newer versions of the dll's and copies them over if required, then the main process is run inside the dll.
It works nicely, or should, and means that users always run the latest version. Win-win. Except.
When we copy over the files to the file server from the build server, one of the dll's is marked as from an 'unknown source' and is blocked. I could go into group policies and disable the blocking but that would be for any other dll/exe that should be blocked.
For now, after each update I have to manually unblock the file. Does anyone have an idea of a better solution?

Wow, NetZ is still around? Then I clicked on the article link.  I haven't used NetZ in ages, IIRC there are better solutions -- have you tried Download ILMerge from Official Microsoft Download Center -- as compared to something that was a decent idea 12 years ago.

Seems that comments on articles are not sent to the author anymore automatically.
NetZ is still around, be it in a somewhat dormant state, the source code is available on GitHub but no one seems interested in it anymore, what a pity.
I did one simple test with a .NET 4.0 application, and got that working.
I know about ILMerge and Fody Costura, and have put those to good use already, the interesting thing about NetZ however is that it zips and encrypts your application which might offer some level of protection.

I share your pain, I have an installer that 'updates' a certain dll to a version that was released when the earth was hot. The worst thing is that version of the dll doesn't have voodoo for the program to work...
|
|
|
|
|
But should you do voodoo?

HooDoo you do it otherwise??

Do do that voodoo - now go do that voodoo that you do so well.

If that's the same "unblock" option you get for files downloaded from the internet, you just need to delete the "Zone.Identifier" alternate data stream.
If only someone had written a library[^] to let you do that easily...

Is this a managed (.NET) dll or a COM Dll or classic dll (neither COM nor .NET -- native dll)?
I'm assuming it is a managed DLL. However, if it is a COM dll that you have a dependency upon you may find some other requirements for that item which are causing the problem.
Edit
Here's something else interesting:
Applications that receive less than full trust from their host or sandbox are not allowed to call shared managed libraries unless the library writer specifically allows them to through the use of the AllowPartiallyTrustedCallersAttribute attribute. Therefore, application writers must be aware that some libraries will not be available to them from a partially trusted context. By default, all code that executes in a partial-trust sandbox and is not in the list of full-trust assemblies is partially trusted

Well it is from Microsoft...so mostly not. 
However, I thought maybe it would lead to something that might help.

It probably was accurate during beta testing. Now, a few releases and updates later - I would be seriously surprised if it was.

That's just cruel. With an adequately hard desk, at least you have the bliss of unconsciousness to look forward to.

Hi All,
I looks like I will be forced down the snake route, so as some one who has an ammount of Vis Studio experience (VB, VB.NET, C#) and a very solid background in C is there a route other than the Python for Beginners book I have gone through that basically give you an overview and simple examples rather than this is how you automate X with it. I mean I can write a text adventure, not automate things.

This may help: Amazon[^] Chapter nineteen seems particularly relevant from what I've seen of Python so far.
