Hi, The AppX engine is not public like Windows Installer. So there is no point in a custom implementation and additional features are out of the question. Visual Studio 11 offers everything you need to create AppX packages. If you need more than Visual Studio 11 offers, you can't use AppX. Regards, ...

Hi Silvio, Your EXE has the same version and size in both installers. This is usually a bad thing because it may lead to unwanted behavior. So an improvement would be to increase the version in your new package. We were able to reproduce the problem, but the installation seems to work correctly. The...

Hi, Please note that the "Skip post install searches" option was a minor hack designed to support prerequisites which are always installed. This is why it was transformed into a feature which supports prerequisites that are always installed. A prerequisite with an install condition which i...

Hi, The double backslashes show up in the output path AI imported from my Visual Studio deployment project. This is a bug in the import process and it will be fixed in a future version. Thank you for bringing it to our attention. As for the relationship between the Interop, AxInterop, and other dlls...

Hi,

Can you please send us the .AIP (project) file you are using to support at advancedinstaller dot com so we can investigate it?

Hi, The first problem I noticed was that the Deployment Package Folder path was composed with double backslashes Can you please give me more details about this? What do you mean by "Deployment Package Folder path"? In the Visual Studio IDE, most of my dll references are stored in the folde...

Hi, Please note that property values in Install Parameters page cannot use other properties. This is why a "Property set with formatted" custom action is required to set your custom property to the formatted path. Regarding the custom action share, we are unable to reproduce this behavior....

Hi,

Hi, Advanced Installer already has a command line interface . Please note that instead of getting separate licenses only for build, you can get a floating license . It can be used by any developer on any machine (non-simultaneous use). We found that this type of license is much easier to manage and ...

Hi,

We will consider adding more features to the Free version. Thank you for your suggestion.
In the meantime, send us an email at support at advancedinstaller dot com with more details about your project and a link. Perhaps we can work something out.

Hi, Try removing the control event which sets [HOST] to itself. It's not necessary and may affect the property value. If the problem persists, please send us a verbose installation log so we can investigate it. Regarding the Windows Installer dialog problem, I'm not sure why it happens. Can you plea...

Hi Justin,

This improvement is already on our TODO list and will be available in a future version. I increased its priority.

Hi, This is not recommended because it prevents the user from uninstalling the application. Even if the service is running, the uninstall can still be performed. The only inconvenience is that it would need a reboot to finish. However, if you really want to prevent the uninstall, you can try this ap...

Hi, The uninstall doesn't work because Register product with Windows Installer option is unchecked in Product Details page. Additionally, since it's unchecked, you cannot enable the Disable Modify , Disable Repair , Disable Remove and Do not show in list options as required by the how-to . Please en...
