Resolved Issues
Upgrading from 1.3 to 1.4 failed to install all necessary files
Upgrading from Audit Log Service 1.3 to Audit Log Service 1.4 correctly attempted to downgrade several third-party DLLs; Windows Installer prohibited this move, resulting in the files not being present on the computer.

Resolved Issues
Deleting a measurement now logs an audit event and requires a reason
Previously, deleting a measurement in OMNIC Paradigm software did not require the user to enter a reason. Now, a reason is required, and the reason is logged as an event in Audit Manager.
Audit Manager no longer displays Unknown Account
If the event could not detect a Windows domain account, the account was displayed as unknown account. Now, the audit event captures the user currently signed into Windows.
