Re: Setting REBOOT property to Froced in custom action does not give reboot prompt.

Value of a serach property when it fails.

Hi,

What is the exact value of a search property when it fails? Can i compare it with "" (empty string) to check whether a search has failed?

E.g. i want to perform a custom action when my search fails.

Kind Regards,
Chetan.

Updater for 'Exe setup with resources next to it' does not work

Hi,

I'm trying the Updater to check if new updates are available.
This works fine with the installer built with embedded resources but not if i buld the installer with 'resources nest to it'.

Please find the installation and the updater projects in the attachment.

Warm Regards,
Chetan.
