The app is a modern windows app with context menus (right click on items and if they have options a context menu will pop up) and tooltips (hover mouse over items and if they have a tooltip it will display).
Many people have used the app and have had no problems with it. I don't understand why you are having the issues you are having 
The extra folders are for the app. All you need to do is run the app. |
I strongly disagree. Instructions are always needed, even if they are simple. It's best practice for any mod, patch or software release. I did find several posts from other users who also had trouble installing this, so don't tell me I'm the only one. Check the last posts in Trevally's instruction thread you'll see what I mean.
Like I said, I'm quite savvy for things like this normally, and I can read very well. The problem is that a lot of things with this app are not 100% intuitive and user friendly. For example, for someone to know where to look for those File= and Note= helpers, he has to know he has to expand the nodes for each patch (which are all collapsed to begin with). This is not intuitive. Then again, once you double-click on a dependency, it may open the related archive, but then there are no further instructions, so it's not any better. There's also no clear list of what files you should backup, so the only way to know is to check the messages that prompts everytime you wish to install a patch and backup the file listed. This is not intuitive !
Don't get me wrong, your app is great and your fixes too. Your documentation however, is non-existant and the app is not very intuitive without them.
