Sign the installer with SlimeVR certificate

This one is for me, writing here so I don't forget. Need to get code signing sertificate and sign the installer builds.

Visual C++ redistributable for Feeder App

Feeder app needs Visual C++ runtime and some people may not have it on new windows installations.
Installer should download it from https://learn.microsoft.com/en-US/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist?view=msvc-170#visual-studio-2015-2017-2019-and-2022 along with the feeder app.

Follow Microsofts Guidelines about Config files / Install locations

As in #31 the installer has some Problems.

As i did read some guidlines (im no expert) we should change some stuff:

Config File should be written in %appdata%\SlimeVR\ -> Uninstall might leave this existing (wanted or not, is there a way to have a question to remove the config in uninstall)
Server should register itself in SteamVR not the Installer (need help on that. Also a problem how and when to unregister ifself when you uninstall the app <- this needs discussion or a good solution how todo that correctly.

Installer should change the following:

Installer: Migration, how to keep track?
Installer: Do not Grant every user access to the SlimeVR programm directory (needs testing, Serial might be a problem?)
Installer: When run with local rights install as app in user dir? ( There should be a location )

Install the SlimeVR Overlay

This is blocked on the autoupdater. The plan is for the MSI installer to call the autoupdater cli to handle all of the dirty work.

This came up when I tried to install the archive for slimeVR

Installer requires Steam even if the SteamVR Driver is not being installed

The installer requires Steam even if the SteamVR Driver is not being installed, so installing the SlimeVR server just for use with OSC is not possible without a workaround.

Tested workarounds:

Install Steam
Add registry key
- For 64 bit, at the path HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Valve\Steam (will need to make the path), add a string value with the name InstallPath and the value of C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam
- For 32 bit, at the path HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Valve\Steam (will need to make the path), add a string value with the name InstallPath and the value of C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam

Ex. file Add_Steam_Install.reg for workaround on 64 bit machines:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Valve]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Valve\Steam]
"InstallPath"="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Steam"

Ex. file Add_Steam_Install.reg for workaround on 32 bit machines:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Valve]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Valve\Steam]
"InstallPath"="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Steam"

Running the installer as a non-admin account and separate admin account

When the installer is elevated to admin priveleges in a split account system, the installer will move over to the admin account, then install and check for SteamVR there. When being run on a non-admin account that has SteamVR installed on it, when elevated, the installer will instead target the admin account and find a lack of SteamVR.

Two available tested workarounds:

Temporarily grant the non-admin account admin priveleges to run the installer, then remove the admin priveleges after installed
Copy openvrpaths.vrpath from %LocalAppData%\openvr\ to C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Local\openvr\ before running the installer to set the target correctly on the admin account

Redundant Installation of JRE

I had already installed Eclipse Temurin 11 for x64, added java to path, and successfully run 'java' in terminal. But when I start the installer, it still install openjdk jre again. I wander what happened.

And for some Network problem, I may need proxy tools to download it. Can installer use System Proxy Configuration?

Failed to copy drivers, even when box is selected, then aborts download.

install issue

this error:

Installer does not fail when not able to unzip files

When for some reasons the installer is not able to unzip the files and fails, the install continuous without visible error/warning for the user.
If you look closer to the log you will see that there was a error but that does not help.

Installer doesn't always install WebView2

The installer doesn't seem to always install WebView2.

It seems that sometimes running the WebView2 installer from https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/webview2/consumer/ as an administrator is still required after running the SlimeVR installer in some cases. I can't reproduce this, but iirc I've had it myself and I've seen numerous cases of this in the support channels.

Relevant support posts potentially exhibiting this issue:

Downloading Java JRE... Failed to download Java JRE. Reason: 0x38 "OpenSSL SSL_read: Connection was reset, errno 10054".

Installer removes already present desktop shortcut

When prompted by the installer to create shortcuts.
Deselecting the "Create desktop shortcut" option will delete an already present "SlimeVR Server" shortcut on the desktop

Update paths and shortcuts in the installer

Following changes should be made to the installer to reduce user's confusion:

Windows version should be downloaded from SlimeVR-win64.zip instead of SlimeVR.zip (available since 0.4.0, old will be available for some time, possibly 1.0.0)
slimevr-ui.exe should be renamed to slimevr.exe (will be updated in the release after this chane released), start menu and desktop shortcut should point to that
run.bat & run.ico files should be removed during an update. If icon is needed, it can be used from slimevr.exe or it can be renamte to icon.ico

installation aborted

it says that it failed to copy slime vr driver

cant trust the file on windows

all it says when i try and download it is "slimevr_web_installer.exe isn't commonly downloaded. make sure you trust slimevr_web_installer.exe before you..." the rest it won't show me but I don't know how to trust the file, and no one will help me

SlimeVR installer steamvr cancel issue

Small edge case in the SlimeVR Web Installer

Steps to reproduce:

Start the web installer
Enable SteamVR Driver in the Components step
Continue the installation
Wait for when it asks for the SteamVR folder
Cancel the browse window

Result: the installer hangs and the user needs to cancel out

Documentation URL leads to a 404

After the installer installs SlimeVR, and checking the "Open Documentation" option, the page opened leads to a 404.
