Mismatch between application and driver versions
2 posts · Closed
There seems to be a mismatch between the RAM Disk application version and its driver version. For example, last year, when I upgraded v4.3.3 to v4.4.0, I noticed the driver version did not change.
And now, when I installed RAM Disk v4.4.3, I also see a discrepancy amongst its files' version numbers. For example, the RAM Disk .exe file is correctly version 4.4.3, but its .dll and .sys files are still version 4.4.2.
This difference in version numbers arises from our current build process. When we update the driver, it is rebuilt using the application version number that is current at the time. However, during the release phase, we typically only rebuild (and increase the version number) the main application file (EXE) and not the driver files, which results in the mismatch you've observed.
We appreciate your feedback and attention to detail. We understand that such version number discrepancy in the RAM Disk files may be confusing, and we are already looking into ways to adjust our release process to ensure the numbers align consistently across all components.
