Just posting this in here since I have mentioned this in the user discussion group and it seems a fix has yet to be implemented into dev-cpp at this time.

Issue: Bad dev-cpp.cfg causes vUpdate to fail on Win32 (nt based).

Cause: The problem is that dev-cpp when it generates dev-cpp.cfg adds extra quotes around some of the variables. For example it generates: $BIN=""C:\Program Files\Dev-Cpp\Bin"" instead of $BIN="C:\Program Files\Dev-Cpp\Bin".

If a patch to dev-cpp could be generated to fix this in the near future it would be appreciated.

  The $INCLUDE and $LIB fields have the same problem
