Important Note about installing a new version

To avoid problems, you must follow these steps when installing or registering a new version of the preview handler.

1. Close all Windows Explorer instances where the preview handler is active or has been used. Remember that the DLL remains in memory until Windows Explorer is closed.
2. Unregister the previous version by running the uninstaller located in C:\Program Files (x86)\TheRoadToDelphi\DelphiPreviewHandler or C:\Program Files\TheRoadToDelphi\DelphiPreviewHandler.
3. If you install the preview handler manually, you must unregister it using UnRegister.bat running as administrator.
4. Now proceed with the installation of the new version.
