Will do as soon as I get this thing to at least compile. Actually, since there is no abstract layer for nt_wfopen(), all calls to this function have to be modified. Alternatively, the function can be modified to ignore perms parameter and alternative version of setup.exe can be compiled then. That is the way I chose, but there is some problem in another file that I cannot fix myself. You can see my previous message about that. Regardless, this is the simple patch:
