Re: SVN, Advanced Installer and Build Nrs

I think this issue is closely related to https://www.advancedinstaller.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=45643 as not only the version number has changed in the aip, but indeed also the product code.

:idea: Would it be an idea to keep the product code in a separate file -or- allow the product code to ...

SVN, Advanced Installer and Build Nrs

I am using SVN for version management
Using a single .rc file to define my version number
Advanced installer "extracts" the version number from my binaries.

That's all just great!

But when I change my version # and rebuild my setup script fro the command line, advanced installer modifies the ...

Re: SignTool.exe gets broken after February 27, 2020—KB4535996 Windows Update

There is a workadround available. I can confirm it worked for me. (from MSDN site, see previous post)

-->> One workaround would be to rename the wintrust.dll file in the signtool.exe directory and then copy the new wintrust.dll into the directory. (From the Windows\System32 folder into the signtool ...

Re: Finding AdvancedInstaller.com

FYI:
:idea: Scanning the subfolder using the 'Find file' action of finalbuilder works. I then put the path of the found file into a project variable which is later on used to actually trigger the setup script builds.

:roll: Unfortunately if multiple advancedInstaller versions have been installed ...

Finding AdvancedInstaller.com

Hi

We perform a build of our setup script from within finalbuilder. For this, I created a (finalbuilder) variable that contains the location of AdvancedInstaller.com

Now we migrated from AI 12.3.1 to 12.4 which changed the path to AdvancedInstaller.com

I would like to have this a bit more robust ...

Re: Attached Custom actions

Fixed!

As it turned out I had to add the DLL as well as the EXE to the "Windows Volume/Temporary" folder as temporary filesd, and than use "Launch EXE with working directory" to get things done during script execution.

Before, when I put the DLL in the temporary folders section, and added the EXE ...

Attached Custom actions

Hi

I have this custom action (CreateDemoLicense.EXE) that depends on a 3rd party DLL (KeyLib.DLL).

I manage to add my custom action and call it, but unfortuately it fails because it is missing the DLL. How can I add the DLL to the installation so it is available to the EXE I call.

BGInfo: I do ...

Remove old application defaults

Hi Dan,

I am reworking the installscripts now using Advanced Installer and I am verry happy with the difference from installshield.

I have a question though: I found the ‘allow side by side’ option for upgrading. But the upgrade dialog defaults to keeping the old version, whereas I would like to ...
