Re: Unable to remove files from System32

Hello Dov, I have tested this just now and everything worked as expected for me. The file was added during the install and then removed during uninstall.

Re: upgrading service now shows two versions in programs and features

Hello Mike, The log file you have sent me seems to be from another installation. In the log file, I could see once again that the ProductCode was the same as the OLDPRODUCT (meaning that the newer versions has the same ProductCode as the old version). The two MSIs you have sent me seem to respect th...

Re: Access 2016 Runtime silent install

You are always welcome, Jenelle.

I am glad you got this working.

To be fully honest with you, I am not sure either if those files are needed, but I was thinking the same: better to be safe than sorry. :)

Best regards,
Catalin

Re: Silent installation by passing parameters

Hello Srujan, One thing to be kept in mind when it comes to .EXE files is the fact that they have dual UI's, the bootstrapper (.EXE) UI and the UI of the .MSI file. Therefore, in order to fully launch a .EXE file silently, a command line sample is as follows: setup.exe /exenoui /qn In what regards t...

Re: upgrading service now shows two versions in programs and features

Hello Mike,

After the SetVersion command line, could you please also add the following two command line parameters:

Code: Select all

Rebuild
Save
and retest this scenario on a clean snapshot of a Virtual Machine?

Hope this helps.

Best regards,

Re: Error in Installing SQL Server 2012 using launch-file custom action

Hello and welcome to Advanced Installer forums, May I ask why you are not using our predefined support for prerequisites (which I believe is much easier to configure than a LaunchFile custom action)? Now, to answer your question, depending on the time when you try to install the prerequisite, the ha...
