Installer automatically cancels?
I have an installer build with AI 22. It seems to work fine but I have one user having trouble. For this user, they select their options and then press 'Install'. It then gives them the "Do you want to run this file" dialog which they select 'Run' and then gives UAC which they accept, and then it ...

Prerequisite for any build of .NET 8?
My question is if there is a way to have a prerequisite for ANY version of .NET 8 to be installed rather than a specific build. My quandary is that I have an application that is an addin to another application, but also has a way to install and run outside of the parent. If the parent is installed ...

Silent Install can't be uninstalled
I had a user point out to me that they were unable to uninstall the application after using silent install. I tried it and I'm able to reproduce this as well. It doesn't seem that the installer is getting copied to the location for uninstall. When you install via command line with silent switches i ...

More consistent install location
Would it be possible to set the install location to something that is not version dependent? Possibly as an optional parameter or something? Currently the install path is "C:\Program Files (x86)\Caphyon\Advanced Installer *version*\bin\x86\advinst.exe" and it seems like new versions or point ...

Re: Text File Ensure Line Occurs Once
For anyone else that comes across this I was able to get this working by doing the modifications inside the action itself, I just needed to run the action as deferred and with full permissions because it was modifying files under Program Files.

Re: Text File Ensure Line Occurs Once
Ok thank you. If I'm doing a custom action, though, should I just make the text update inside the custom action?

Text File Ensure Line Occurs Once
I am trying to update a text file through the installer but with a slight twist. I need to ensure that the file exists and that a line exists, but exists only once. End user machines may or may not have the file, and if they do the line may or may not exist. If I do an append it will add it to the ...

Re: Xml combining nodes
Yes that's what I get and no that's not what it's supposed to look like. The final xml should look like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<RevitAddIns>
<AddIn Type="Application">
<Name>Keynote Manager +</Name>
<Assembly>C:\Program Files (x86)\Revolution Design\Keynote ...
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<RevitAddIns>
<AddIn Type="Application">
<Name>Keynote Manager +</Name>
<Assembly>C:\Program Files (x86)\Revolution Design\Keynote ...

Re: Xml combining nodes
It doesn't seem like there is a way to make it create the xml each time but would love to be proven wrong. I'm going to try to install an empty xml file with 'always overwrite' and the do the 'update' to actually fill it out...

Xml combining nodes
I have an install project that creates an xml file that was defined by using the 'import xml file' function. The attached image is the basic configuration.
I have users that are getting this xml on their machines:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<RevitAddIns>
