Reason 11: The Windows Logo Process
If you're applying for Microsoft's "Certified
for Windows" logo, you should know that it can be a convoluted and
expensive process. The process provides concise guidelines and tools for
application developers to use in optimizing their applications. Most applications not specifically written with the logo
in mind will fail in
one or more conformance testing aspects.
The number one reason products fail the logo
certification involves
setups. The guidelines specify strict rules about
where files must go, how to do version checking, and which files should
be reference counted. Often products fail one or more of the usability
requirements as well.
The upcoming requirements new and future versions of
Windows and Microsoft platforms promises to be even more stringent.
