Re: Build frequently crashing

Hello and welcome to Advanced Installer forums, Unfortunately, I can not say for sure why that happens. In order for me to further investigate this, could you please forward me a copy of your .AIP file and the verbose log of the installation process, by e-mail at support at advancedinstaller dot com...

Hello Agyorgyi,

I did not delete this topic because it may be helpful for further users facing a similar scenario.

If you want, you can delete the attachments (simply edit the post, delete the attachment then save the post).

Re: Access AI_ProgramFiles

Hello Alexander, Could you please try to retrieve the "ProgramFilesFolder" property instead? The AI_ProgramFiles is a custom made property and I am not quite sure if you can retrieve its value. With that being said, your script could look like this: $programFiles = AI_GetMsiProperty Progra...

Re: EXE to install only x86 32bit to run on ARM

Hello, Thank you for your followup on this. In the article you have given me, it states that: The other problem is that an MSI has a master table including a ‘platform’ field, and initially, I couldn’t work out what to put in there. If I set it to ‘Arm’ or ‘Arm64’, then msiexec.exe reported that the...

Hello, I figured out how to pass all the values of each user inputted parameter to the .msi. I needed to specify each parameter in the install command lines.

Re: EXE to install only x86 32bit to run on ARM

Hello and welcome to Advanced Installer forums, Unfortunately, I am not very familiar with the ARM architecture. First of all, just to make sure, in order to repackage your application, are you using our Repackager.exe tool or the "EXE to MSI" project template? As I am not familiar with th...

Re: Installation Order of Operations

Hello, Since you have mentioned that you have a suite installation, I imagine that the features you are talking about are actually feature-based prerequisites (please correct me if I'm wrong). If that is the case, the order is actually dictated by the prerequisite's order. For instance, let's say yo...

Re: Source File Not Found ????

Hello,
i can't see ExtractFilesFirst property in install parameter page
The property is not there, by default. You have to add it and set its value.

Hope this helps.

Best regards,
Catalin
