January 29, 201510 yr just wondering what is the naming convention is for the folder of the download, some internal code? ips_47a95 = Beta 5 ips_bf07b = Beta 6 i guess random names as mine not the same
January 29, 201510 yr Community Expert Probably this random string is being stored and tied to member who downloaded it to try to track who is sharing the software. I mean, it's feasible to do it, if they want.
January 29, 201510 yr Each download receives a random file name. Example I downloaded b5a 4 times checking issues going on on my Wamp server.... Each had a different file name after opening the zip files.In my case this is a good thing figuring out Wamp / beta issues.*** Added Note ***Adriano has a good point!
January 30, 201510 yr We don't tie any anti-piracy efforts to the name of the zip. It is trivial to rename the file after downloading it. The names are just random.
January 30, 201510 yr Management The reason they are random is because zips are built on request based on what licenses you own and what you are upgrading. So it creates a temporary name as it builds the zip since it is possible multiple clients may request a zip at one time.

February 2, 201510 yr We don't. Each app has its own language file (although some language strings are shared across apps and are subsequently in the 'core' language pack).
