Not enough disk space upgrade problem.

[jeport]

I tried to update my Homeseer this morning to the latest version. After the install was complete, I tried to run it and received:

"Homeseer.exe is not a valid win32 application"

I panicked (mainly because I have to leave for work and don't want to have my wife upset that things aren't running properly ;-) ) and realized that when I did the upgrade, I had little space left on my hard drive and Homeseer could update the whole file.

I was able to figure this out quickly, but another person may not. Shouldn't the updater make sure there is enough space before starting a download?

It sure should and now that each plugin price is at a mainstream program price I think we should be expecting each plugin to come with an installer and an uninstaller. Would your buy Trend Micro for $40 dollars and expect the same results. I would be very upset to start the install and run out of disk space. I would also be irate if I installed it and couldn't un-install it. I don't mind the latest price increase of plugins but with that main stream price tag come a bit more expectations.

A note...

The upgrade was performed from within the installer itself and not simply running the installer program.

Yes I realize that jeport. The updater still needs to check before installing. In addition there should be an uninstall for all plugins now that the price increase has taken effect.

Just wanted to make sure. Either way it sucks...

Have a great night!
