I finally figured out I can copy the x64 prerequisite and set the copy to install only on ARM64. This seems to meet my requirements.

In my situation I want to install the .NET Desktop Runtime x86 on x86 machines, the .NET Desktop Runtime x64 on x64 machines, and the .NET Desktop Runtime ARM64 on ARM64.

I would like to check for the prescence of the .net Desktop Runtime for ARM64 in my app, and I don't see any ARM64 prerequisites in the list. I am running Advanced Installer Version 19.9. How can I do this, do I have to manually configure it?

I am trying to figure out whether I can set up a schedule where my app checks and installs updates on a regular basis. I only have the professional version, so I don't think so, but I'm a bit confused. When I click the `Automatic` option in the `Updater Execution` section (#1 in attached screenshot)...

Thanks for the reply. I had tried this already and it doesn't seem to work that way for me. But I must be doing something wrong. I have attached my aip file for your review. It only has the files added to the 'Program Files 64' folder, but they get installed to my Program Files (x86) folder when I r...

I would like to install some Firefox preferences to a folder on the target machine conditionally based on whether the user has 64 bit or 32 bit Firefox installed. If the target machine has a folder named C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\defaults\pref\, I want to write two files to it. If the target ...
