​​Version 2025.2.1
September 29, 2025​
​​​
Summary of Changes:​
This new MSI installer version addresses two critical issues:
1. Critical Installation Path Fix: The installation folder now correctly defaults to c:\chldview instead of C:\Program Files (x86). Installing into the wrong folder was previously preventing ChildView from running or opening certain files.
2. Corrected Help File: We have updated the Help file to the correct version, as the file initially included was incompatible with certain system configurations.
The core functionality remains unchanged, so the ChildView version number will stay 2025.2.0.
