			<description><![CDATA[<p>what he posted was a copy of my explanation of certain entries (or lack there of) in the mass storage INI file.</p><p>there was a special case where we had one updated driver in the pack that replaced THREE native drivers.</p><p>99% of the time an updated driver simply replaces an existing driver...</p><p>I had to write special code so that this one driver that actually replaced three native drivers would result in archiving all three of the native drivers. this was accomplished by adding a special entry containing no HWIDs. In this way DriverPacks BASE would archive the files but not replace them with any file. (because they are now covered by a different driver).</p><p>Took some creative juice on my part to make it work... and it looks unusual in the INI file.<br />If you read the INI and did not know what / why it was that way it would not be obvious what was going on.<br />Some guy was editing the pack and stumbled into it and got confused. That text was cut from the middle of my expanation of the &quot;weird looking&quot; entries.</p>]]></description>
