possible bug in automatic upgrade

Cata, This is a heads up - I'm not certain about it, but I think you should know. There may be a problem with replacing the existing program when you increment the product code. I've found two situations - in both cases AI appears to have done a successful install. However, in one case (on XP), the ...

Custom Message Text at End of Installation

Three things: - Would very much like to be able to leave a custom message at the end of the installation, such as "Start <myapp> from the Windows Start menu." - Also, would really like an option to start the installed app with the Finish button. - Would like the option to see the Product S...

Run Newly Installed Application...!

The only minimum requirement missing in the 1.1 release is the ability to run the newly installed app on closing the installer. Any hidden registry setting for this:-?

Shortcuts are not being created in my All Programs Start Menu list.

Thanks very much,
Michael

Application Folder

I would like to have the option to eliminate either the [Manufacturer] or the [ProductName] placeholders in the [ProgramFilesFolder][Manufacturer]\[ProductName] parameter. You should provide the flexibility to do just: a \Program Files\MyApp install - particularly when product name and vendor name a...

For now, Advanced Installer can only install files. But the next version will have support for Shortcuts too. We're working on it as we speak. Any other feature you would be interested in? Philip - superb product - nothing beats free, and you put InstallShield to shame already for the simple logica...
