Thanks

Hi, Thanks for suggesting the 64-bit version. It helped us progress from our initial issue. We are using the same aip file that was sent. However, we have made the following changes: - Package Type = Mixed 32/64-bit matching the platform - Installation Type = Per-machine if user is administrator, pe...

Hi, We are currently using Advanced Installer to install an Excel Add-in. We are currently building the executable with the Install Parameter value set to "Per-user only". This installs and registers the Excel Add-in correctly and we can see the option is added in the Excel ribbon. We have...

Hi Catalin, We have tried that. The -cmd_line affects all types of installation (not just a slient install) from what we have found. If we add in the silent commands to the -cmd_line then during the full UI install it pauses as it silently installs the Prerequisite. We only want our Prerequisite to ...

Hi There, We have an EXE installation file that is dependent on another EXE installation file. We are using the New Prerequisite command to generate this in our DevOps pipeline as the dependent installer is managed by us and changes regularly. We have been trying to get silent installations working ...

Hi Liviu,

From our testing, we found that the -cmd_line also affects the UI install, rather then just the no UI Silent install. We want to add a silent install (no UI) option to our Prerequisite.

Is this expected?

Thanks,
Connor

Hi there, We are using Advanced Installer to install an Excel Add-in. The Installer is generated as part of our Azure Devops pipelines. We are currently adding prerequisites to our installer in our Devops pipeline. We now have a new requirement, to make our prerequisite a silent install. How do we a...

Hi Catalin,

Just to confirm, do we add this manually to the "Properties" window in the "Install Parameters" page?

Thanks,

Hi there, We are using Advanced Installer to install an Excel Add-in. The Installer is generated as part of our Azure Devops pipelines.

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for your quick response and the above recommendation!

We have managed to get this working, and now the registry values are being removed as expected.

Thanks!

Hi there, We are using Advanced Installer to install an Excel Add-in. As part of this, we write values to the registry. We use a generic AIP file and configure this within our Devops Pipeline for each product. Behavior experienced is as follows: - If we have one product installed, when we uninstall ...

Hi there, After updating to Advanced Installer 17.0, we have noticed that the Prerequisites screen appears differently. Is this a bug or intended functionality? If so, is there a way to revert or change the look back to what is was like in version 16.9? Reason for this, we believe the 16.9 version o...

Hi there, We have noticed that with one of our users, that there appears to be a intermittent 'pause' at the ProcessDlg step of the install. Using the same installer, sometimes there is no pause, whilst other times there is a pause. This pause can be upwards of 15-20 seconds. We have done a verbose ...
