Re: Installation failed due to PS execution together with WDAC (Windows Defender Application Control)

Hello and welcome to our forums, I have to admit that I might not be the most experienced when it comes to WDAC. So far, the solution I've found to be able to run MSI packages was to have the certificate installed on the machine. Please allow me some more time to test and investigate this and I will...

Re: Create custom dialog

Hello Mike, Thank you for your followup on this and for the shared steps. This is happening due to some internal logic that is going on behind the scenes. What you can do, if you want to hide those buttons, is to select it and then create a Control Condition that will hide/disable it. Screenshot_134...

Re: Create custom dialog

Hello Mike,

I am not quite sure why this is happening.

In order for me to further investigate this, could you please let me know what theme you are using and a test-case (e.g. the steps you are taking in order to reproduce this)?

Best regards,

Re: Prerequisite checkboxes checked, even when action is 'Skip'

Hello Chris, Yes, that is exactly what I'm saying. As per my observations so far, it looks like this behavior does not exhibit when the "Framework" option is checked. I've noticed this by observing the behavior for .NET Framework 4.8.1 which does not have the same outcome. Best regards, Ca...

Re: Powershell Script don't run during installation Windows 10 LTSB2016 (IOT), Manually it's OK.

Hello Markus, Thank you once again for the followup on this. That's really strange, as I've just tested this on a normal Windows VM and it launches the correct 64-bit PowerShell launcher. It's true, however, that I do not have access to a machine with a Windows like yours and therefore can not reall...

Re: Prerequisite checkboxes checked, even when action is 'Skip'

Hello Chris, Thank you very much for providing the sample project. Upon testing this, I can indeed confirm the behavior. I have forwarded this to our development team. In the meantime, I have noticed that this works as expected if you check the "Framework" option for the .NET Runtime prere...
