Hello,
maybe I just don't understand which criteria Advanced Installer uses to determine if a file in a synced folder is new:
I have a folder that contains DLLs. The Version of 3 DLLs hasn't changed, just the file date and the file size have. Unfortunately the file sync does not recognize these ...

prerequisites needing internet connection
Hi,
I have a package that depends on .Net 4.8. I have checkmarked that it gets downloaded ("Download single file from URL"). However, it seems that the installer looks for an internet connection even if .Net 4.8 (or newer) is already installed. Can I prevent AI to do that somehow?

MSIX and Software deployment
Hello,
does anyone know about a whitepaper on how to use MSIX packages for automatic software deployment on Terminal Server (Server 2016,2019, 2020) via SCCM? As you might know, these tasks are done with SYSTEM rights, no user interaction and fully automatic. But MSIX packages are installed in user ...

Re: Package Software versions...
Today I did some further testing:
1) using version 21.10042.0 to update package 19.10064.1 --> Did not work (a newer package of "package name" is already installed
2) using version 20.20042.0 to update package 19.10064.1 --> Did work.

Software versions...
Hej guys,
maybe I am a little confused, but...
since when is version "19.10064.1" more recent than "20.10042.0"? I cannot install my major MSI update because the package (20.10042.0) claims that a newer version is already installed. I have Adv. Installer 17.3 installed...

Re: Problem with uninstall
The good thing is: You can checkmark ANY file in the components as "shared DLL Reference Count". Even if not all files are listed within the above mentioned registry key, they will be properly tagged and not uninstalled as long there's an instance installed that is using them.
However, I do NOT ...

Re: ODBC Connection on a non-default port
Hi,
thanks (again) for your reply. However, it didn't help. So I monitored what happens when you de-klick the "dynamically determine port" checkbox and enter the port your config needs. It creates and HKLM entry (at least for a "system" ODBC entry):

Re: ODBC Connection on a non-default port
Hi Daniel,
thank you so far. What is the correct syntax for defining a PORT in the ODBC config (Data Sources dialog)?
I now have used and LASTUSER=username with no password (but there's one)

Thanks Daniel,
I'll explain...
1) I have set up the ODBC connection in the package (which does not allow me to set the PORT so that the default config applies (checkmark for Default Port is set):

The setup is as follows:

Re: ODBC Connection on a non-default port
Hello,
this problem revisits me from time to time... sorry... :-)
The reason it comes back is, that the tag "use default port" in the ODBC client configuration dialog is NOT UNSET when defining a custom SQL connection which I do as follows in advanced installer:
Driver={[DBDriver_PROP]};Server ...

"simply" the topic:

best way to register 32bit ActiveX components?

what is considered the best method to register ActiveX components within a package? I haven't been really into that until today, so a little more insight in the mechanics and some links are very much appreciated
