Hi <ROW Property="ProductVersion" Value="1.0.0-beta5" Type="32"/> (we were getting product version from somewhere that is directly written into .aip file) If you enable Package Validation an invalid ProductVersion will be catched by ICE24 : ERROR: ICE24. ProductVersion:...

Hi Glen The Win8 SignTool fails with errors because "the OS (Win7) does not support the options selected". Did you copy the signtool.exe file from its install location (usually "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8\bin\x64") to another folder? Note that Windows SDK 8+ installs n...

Hi Glen I will send you the version of signtool.exe that we have been using. The OS is Win 7 Pro 64bit. We do not have Windows SDK installed (we use Embarcadero RAD Studio). I downloaded our copy of SignTool.exe years ago (2006) which we probably downloaded from MS at some point. We use a .pfx file....

Hi I tested the file you attached, and running the setup as Administrator with UAC set to Default still gives the same error. I've tested again on Windows 7 64-bit directly from the built-in Administrator account. The only change from first version was to add parameters to quietly install the prereq...

Hi This issue is not limited to my own prerequisite. I tried specifying the predefined prerequisite for "Visual C++ 2010 SP1 x86" as a feature-based prerequisite, and it behaves the same way (download fails when running as Admin, download and install succeeds when running under normal user...

Hi How to enable .Net framework 3.5 (Includes .Net 2.0 and 3.0) on windows 8 without connecting to internet to dwonload the package> when i add framework 3.5 as windows feature it also needs internet to dwonload it. .NET Framework 3.5 (or newer) can only be installed as a Feature on Windows 8 and 8....

Hi Now all we need is to be able to have the custom dll form appear on top of the installer instead of behind it. Which is a professional problem where you don't have the ability to customize dialogs in the installer. Has anyone found a way to get a custom dll form show up in the foreground? We had ...

Hi Is there any tool available that can use a ".aip" file (or feature in the application) to help in the creation and/or maintenance of user-level documentation for an installer? If not, how about something in a human-readable format for developers? We are not aware of any tool that create...

Hi I want to check the prerequisites are installed or not .Net 4.5 IIS WCF activation is installed For this you need to add a Search for each prerequisite. If they are not there I need to show a error message. This can be achieved by adding a Display error message or Display message box custom actio...

Hi I'm wondering though why it's necessary to check the OS version via the registry lookup if it's already been checked by the "Windows Version" checkboxes above. Indeed, it is not necessary to check the OS version. Several fixes for Windows Installer prerequisites will be included in Adva...

Hi Just in case others are looking to distribute the Access Runtime, after a lot of testing I used a different prereq test: ==== Registry value exists: HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Registration\{745FB377-0A59-4CA9-B9A9-C359557A2C4E} HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Registration\{90140000-0...

Hi The problem is that the exe still seems to be downloading ALL of the prerequisite files each time rather than simply proceeding with the install. Is there a way to stop this? IF the prerequisite is already installed, the most likely the cause is that the Install Conditions are incorrect. For your...

Hi Just please help us show us any example so we can download and figure out what we are doing wrong. I've attached a project sample. AI f27625.aip This project was tested successfully on Windows 2008 SP2 x86. Here are some notes regarding this project sample AI f27625 . The target was to create an ...

Hi ... My app is running under Visual Studio 13 on the Windows 8.0 platform. Note that Advanced Installer already has predefined prerequisites for Visual C++ redistributables. More specifically, predefined prerequisites for Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2013 were added in Advanced Ins...

Hi The best solution, IMHO, is a File -> Close option :-) Like you can "Close A Solution" in Visual Studio. This was discussed within our development team and the decision at this time is that we won't add a File->Close menu item. The rationale for this decision was that the usual workflow...
