Updating to 2.2.1 and win10

[kjl]

So had the previous build of audacity and upgraded with the old version still installed, but ever sence 2.2.1 installed constant error in win10 64x side by side.
Using the programs and features to uninstall either version resulted in the "left over version " to not work and required a manual deletion of the remaining
folder, but still get this error;

Code: Select all

This is a known issue, but it is harmless. Windows Application Event Log is complaining because Audacity provides both an explicit and a wildcard reference to the same object in the manifest. This issue is believed to be resolved in the soon to be released 2.2.2 version.
