Version display in 'Programs and Features'

Postby hhehl » Tue May 15, 2012 11:08 pm

I set the version in my build script as follows:

AdvancedInstaller /edit ${versioned_project_file} /SetVersion ${version} -noprodcode


where version is major.minor.maint.build

i.e. 1.2.3.4

In the tmp file created by AI I see <ROW Property="ProductVersion" Value="1.2.3.4"/>

When the product is installed the version displayed in "Programs and Features" show only "1.2.3"
How can I get the entire version displayed?

Hello and welcome to Advanced Installer forums,

I've tested your scenario on Windows 7 machine and the application version number is displayed correctly (i.e. 1.2.3.4) in "Programs and Features" window. Can you please test your package application on a clean machine? Also, if the behavior still persists can you please send us the .AIP (project file) and a verbose log of the installation to support at advancedinstaller dot com so we can investigate?

Why do you want to use the fourth field in the product version format? Please keep in mind that Windows Installer ignores the fourth field of the product version.

If you have any questions let me know.

All the best,
Daniel

The last digit is used to identify the build.
I emailed the information you asked for.
Thanks
