I cannot see any difference between the old version and this new one.

I even uninstalled the previous version and I still cannot figure it out how can one do this, for example:

 

* Added a command line option so POI Loader can run automatically without requiring user interaction.

* Added the ability to choose POI files to ignore while installing.

 

Am I missing something here?!

Have you read the help file first????

 

Running POI Loader in Silent Mode

 

You can run POI Loader in Silent mode, which means POI Loader runs using the same settings from the last time it was used. If any of these settings are now invalid, the POI Loader wizard launches, allowing you to adjust these settings and continue to install your Custom POIs.

 

To run in Silent mode, call POI Loader from the command line with the Silent mode option enabled, for example:

 

> PoiLoader.exe /silent

 

NOTE: Silent mode is not currently supported for Windows Mobile, Pocket PC, or Palm devices.

 

Adjust the settings for each individual data file:

 

If you want to ignore certain files, check "Ignore this file?".

 

If the file contains proximity alert points, check the appropriate box.
