The current SVN version of SelfModifier does not work on Windows.

The Java command in SelfModifier.spawn() does not run, because quotes are used for the value of -Dself.mod.jar.

Dennis, I have seen that you have been improving SelfModifier. Would it be possible to display a GUI error message when the Java command fails in SelfModifier.spawn()? The current situation is that on Windows the uninstaller just terminates without a visible error message.

Additionally it would be good if there was a fallback mechanism when SelfModifier fails. After a warning message, the uninstaller should continue without SelfModifier. Locked files and directories could not be removed in this case, but most parts of the application would be uninstalled, including start menu entries and desktop links.
