Re: Really simple - I need MSI not AIP

Hello and welcome to Advanced Installer forums,

The .AIP is an Advanced Installer project that builds the .MSI. To generate the .MSI simply choose the Build operation from the toolbar and then look for the .MSI in the "<YourProjectName>-SetupFiles" folder next to the .AIP.
The keyboard shortcut for the Build operation is F7 and for Run is F5.

Since you are new, I highly recommend you read our tutorials for a better understanding of how to use Advanced Installer to efficiently deploy your products.This will also help you better understand support team's suggestions now and in the future. The Simple and Professional tutorials are especially important.

All the best,
Mihai
