Re: .AIP file fails to open in fresh install of v9.2

I just had this very problem happen, but in v14.5.2. Since I didn't have the old dialog files anymore, I followed your recommendation of creating some dummy ones in a dummy project. Then I exported them to the Dialog Repository. The actual project then opened properly, but I wasn't able to figure ...

Ok, I don't know what is wrong with that VM then. I won't worry too much more about it. Thanks for your time and testing.

Re: Pre-requisite not being recognized by the installer as already installed, Windows 10

Simply put, I do not have another machine to test this on. On the machine I have, the correct registry key is indeed set.

However, I have figured out another aspect of this- thus far the installer has been launched from a shared folder, which acts like another drive on the Windows 10 VM. On a whim ...

Re: Pre-requisite not being recognized by the installer as already installed, Windows 10

No, we are not signing the .exe outside of Advanced installer. It is an .exe, but it is signed by Advanced Installer. I did send an email pertaining to your previous questions, but the only response I have received thus far from your company was a blank email. Do you still want me to send you guys a ...

Pre-requisite not being recognized by the installer as already installed, Windows 10

My installer has the " Visual C++ 2010 SP1 x86 (MFC Security Update)" prerequisite specified. When I run the installer on a Windows 10 VM (without the Creator's update, but with the anniversary update, if it makes a difference), the installer always tries to install the prerequisite, even if it is ...

Re: Customize updater error message

I was able to get it to work in Resource Tuner. Thanks for your response on that- it is still kind of strange that Visual Studio couldn't do it properly.

Another question though: I have now editted some select bits of text in English. We do not have the means to create our own translations of these ...

Re: Customize updater error message

I have tried to edit a string in the string table from Visual Studio 2013, but I'm running into several issues:

1) I have editted the string table in Visual Studio, saved the dll, and closed it. If I re-open the .dll, Visual Studio claims that "[path]\Updater-res.dll appears to be corrupted ...

Re: License expiration check

But we can't change the warning message that appears when the user chooses an update which was released after their maintenance plan has expired. More importantly we can't prevent or disallow them selecting an update for which they don't have a maintenance plan- we can only warn them about it. I ...

Re: License expiration check

Is there any plan on implementing the feature requested by Rik HS? I also would appreciate the ability to (a) prevent the user from downloading updates that they are ineligible for due to their license expiry date, (b) edit the message that appears above the release notes when the user tries to ...

License expiration check w/out License check

The licensing engine that we use is not well suited for the Advanced installer method of checking for a valid license before updating as described in this article:

http://www.advancedinstaller.com/user-guide/updater-advanced-functionality.html

However, I like the functionality whereby I can pass ...

Re: Advanced Installer exe not installed in proxy connection

Out of curiosity, what was the fix that you made for this issue? Did you give the user a dialog box allowing them to enter the username and password? Or some other solution?

I skimmed the release notes for 11.1, but didn't find anything.
