I also could use this feature. Please add me to the list ${L_SMILIES_SMILE}$

It looks like we encountered this problem also. We were still building the project using 15.5.1. We now updated the installer to use 18.8.1. Would we need to set the property to prevent this issue?

Yes, although this would only work if folder A is created by our own setup. And I would prefer to just inherit the permissions of parent folders instead of setting strict permissions on subfolders. So here my feature request: Please make folders inherit permissions by default even when creating subf...

I stumbled upon the same issue. Here the simplified scenario. We create the following directory structure in AI: A |-B |-C Permissions of folder A: - Admin: Full Control - SomeUser: Full Control - Everyone: Modify Permissions of folder C: - Admin: Full Control - SomeUser: Full Control Now we want th...

Too bad. However I did some more research and found the following interesting sites: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/hansr/archive/2006/02/17/patchreboot.aspx http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/hh968413(v=vs.85).aspx http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa387290(v=vs....

In order to achieve this you can try to create your own custom action which will query the target system for pending reboots and if found, then set the "REBOOT" property to "FORCE". This looks like the solution I'm looking for though I don't know how to query the system for pend...

Thanks Daniel. I understand that there is an endless list of requested features. :) However maybe you can help me to make a workaround. I also send a mail to support about this, but maybe it would be better (for other users) to handle my question in the forum. I've made a .js script that will check ...

I added an EULA rtf file to the installer with a picture/logo in it, but the picture is not displayed. Doesn't Advanced Installer support pictures in the EULA?

Sorry for reviving this old thread, but I'm having the same issue with the hotfix KB971512 on Vista SP2 (needed to support DX11). The prerequisite checks a dx dll but as a reboot is needed, the check fails the second time. It would be nice when the prereq wizard shows the 'need reboot' status or so ...

That workaround of the custom feature dialog is a bit too much work for just having a version number displayed. I do think that displayed the feature based on just one of the version checks wouldn't be much work will it? Any chance that this will be implemented if I post it as a feature request?

Igor Markovic

When creating a prerequisite that will check multiple file versions, the prerequisite dialog will display e.q.: Required: 6.62 or higher. Found: Nothing. However the prerequisite is installed, but we do an extra check to decide if we need to reinstall the prerequisite. It would be nice if f.i. the f...

Thank! Works like a charm!

We have enabled the bootstrapper feature 'Uninstall a package with the same version (if found)' in the bootstrapper options. Now we have to support silent installations as our customers are pushing the software through Microsoft SCCM. I have the silent installation working for both the bootstrapper ...

Igor Markovic

Yes, this would be a great feature! Just an option like 'debug build' or 'reinstall same version' would be great for testing purposes as we create a new installer every night (and sometimes even multiple on the same day). This will let our testers just start the installer without the need of first u...

Removing the readonly flag from the file also solved it on my machine. Is it possible that this issue gets solved in a future release (if it is allowed by the security permissions) as it will also affect alot of others I guess?

Thanks for figuring this out!!

Igor
