Ability to cancel long operations
I work in virtual machines 90% of the time and some operations can take a really long time in certain projects, like clicking on the Files item in the Table Editor. It would be handy if it were possible to cancel that operation by simply clicking on another item instead of completely locking up ...

In our system, the machine that we develop our installers and the machine where we build the installers are not the same. As such, we are making extensive use of the Project Path Variables to point the different parts to the correct locations when it is time to build. The one exception seems to be ...

We're in the process of automating our build procedure for one of our products and I've finally migrated the build process of AdvancedInstaller.

XP/Vista Registry Issue
I've got an installer that could run on both Vista or XP, and I'm having a problem with a registry entry.
If I add a value into the Current User/Local Machine when I try to install on Vista, the error is:
