Re: How to prevent users from installing directly to system folders like "Program Files"?
I'm sorry, but our the problem is different than "installing under ProgramFiles". We don't want users select "ProgramFiles" or other system folder as APPDIR.

How to prevent users from installing directly to system folders like "Program Files"?
Hello,
What is the most simple way to check whether user selected (using an installation dialog) as a main installation patch some system folder like 'C:\Program Files" and force him to use a custom path like 'C:\Program Files\MyProgram" ?
Many thanks for help. J.

Re: Error: The specified path '' is unavailable
Do you have any simple workaround for this problem? We have project created with 10.3 and we can't load it with 10.2. Thanks for help.

A switch of theme disables VerifyRemoveDlg
After switching to a new theme we have to remove all cleanup actions and create them again in order to show VerifyRemoveDlg during uninstallation. Just wanted to let you know... hope you will address this issue in next update.

Re: Resource CleanUp behaviour
I did what you told me, but during silent installation (using /qn switch) it didn't work. Are "Wizard Dialog Stage" custom actions executed while "UILevel < 3" (no GUI)?

Re: Resource CleanUp behaviour
Is it possible to set AI_CLEAN_RESOURCES_UNINSTALL from inside the setup.exe package. We don't want users to set any properties from command line, just to make default action "Not to remove resources" (AI_CLEAN_RESOURCES_UNINSTALL="0"). Thanks for help.

Is there any way how change this default behaviour ...

How to skip "prerequisites dialog"?
How to skip "prerequisites dialog" when all prerequisites are already installed? We need .NET framework 4.5 to be installed before the installation starts, but we don't want to bother user if the package is already installed. Is there any simple way how to do that?
