Disable automatic creation of new product code on version change
We have a setup project that extracts the product version number from the executable file. The file version number changes with each new internal build we release, and when that version number changes, AI automatically creates a new Product Code. We do not want a new Product Code for each new ...

ARP entry not removed after product upgrade
Hello,
I've released several versions of a product over the last year, changing the MSI product code for each version but leaving the upgrade code the same.
When installing a new version over a previous version, the previous version is automatically uninstalled, but its entry remains in the ARP ...

Re: Per machine if admin, per-user otherwise not working for non-admins
Thanks for the explanation, Daniel.
Is this constraint imposed by Windows Installer, or by Advance Installer? Is there a way around this?
We really want an installer that automatically selects per-user or per-machine depending on the user's account privileges. We don't want the end user to be ...

Per machine if admin, per-user otherwise not working for non-admins
Hello,
I've got a fairly simple installer with Installation Type set to "Per-machine if user is administrator, per-user otherwise." Works great when I install as an admin - the app is correctly installed per machine for all users.
When I try to install from a normal user account (Windows 7, no UAC ...

Re: registering multiple file extensions with one mime-type
Great, in the mean time I've worked around this by setting it up with the first icon in the development environment and then editing the icon index directly in the project file.

Re: registering multiple file extensions with one mime-type
Hi Bogdan,
Thanks for the explanation regarding mime types - I figured it was an MSI limitation.
I reproduced the crash with a new project, specifically by performing the following steps:
1) Create new Professional project
2) Add attached executable file to File and Folders
3) Create a progid in ...

Installer themes/graphics do not scale with DPI settings
Hello,
I believe I've encountered a bug in installers produced by Advanced Installer. I've created an msi using the Azure LightSkyBlue theme, but when I run it on a computer with enlarged text, the background graphic no longer stretches across the entire window. You can reproduce this by going to ...

Re: registering multiple file extensions with one mime-type
Also, my main executable has two embedded icons. When I try to map two different ProgIDs to the second embedded icon, I get this error message:
"A row with this key [c:\somepath\my.exe#1] was already registered in the table"
And then Advanced Installer crashes.
Anyway to reuse the second icon ...

registering multiple file extensions with one mime-type
Greetings,
Evaluating your product and liking what I'm seeing so far. However, I've run into one issue.
My application needs to register two file extensions, both of which should map to the mime type "text/tab-separated-values", which is standard for tab-delimited text files. When I try to ...
