Re: How to temporary disable/enable Digital Signature via command line
Thank you Catalin, this was a clear case of myself of not reading carefully. But in my defense, section 6 points out "Parameters" with three (bold) bullet points. It gives the feeling of that is all; so I have skiped this section and went to the next one. A (low prio) suggestion: Please re...

How to temporary disable/enable Digital Signature via command line
I have two scenarios: release builds, which I sign with Advanced Installer, and (automated) development builds, which are not signed at all. I want to have a single Advanced Installer configuration file, but still want to choose whether I want to sign or not. Is there a way to temporary disable/enab...

Allow signing with CSP PIN-caches (Smartcard Code Signing asks for PIN too many times)
I am using the Digital Signature feature with a code signing certificate stored on a smartcard. The smartcard ist PIN protected, and requires a PIN for every session (not transaction). When I build setups, I get ask a hundred times (no joke) for the PIN. This takes me about an hour in password entry...

How do I get the Advanced Installer version to be written into summary information?
With an MSI build, under "Database Encoding", you have "Customize Summary Information" with the field "Creating Application". In this "Creating Application" meta field, Advanced Installer stores "Advanced Installer build". I want to change this to &q...

Thank you very much, Catalin. Somehow, I have overseen it completely. It works great.

Re: PowerShell cannot read/write properties which names come from variables
Had no luck... So I guess I am forced to use hard-coded property names then.

Re: PowerShell cannot read/write properties which names come from variables
First of all, please keep in mind that the AI_GetMsiProperty and AI_SetMsiProperty are both custom cmdlets created with the only purpose of getting/setting a property value. This is exactly my use-case. I need to get properties to use them in scripts, and need to set properties to use them in subse...

Re: OT: Where to get Code Signing Certificate?
I use code signing certificates from Certum , a Polish trusted certification authority. Certums' code signing certs are usually starting from 25€ (Open Source) via 129€ (Standard) to 359€ (EV, e.g. for Windows kernel mode drivers) . The identity validation is reliable, and not impossible with e.g. C...

Make the "Limit to basic user interface" option also available with build options
I am creating a setup project with a single MSI installer, web installer, and Active Directory installer. The latter requires the option "Limit to basic user interface" to be set. However, the option "Limit to basic user interface" is only available in the (global) "Install ...

PowerShell cannot read/write properties which names come from variables
I have a selection of Advanced Installer PowerShell scripts, that I just have optimized. AI/MSI property names are now not hard-coded, but supplied via parameters. Take this example: # Block for declaring the script parameters. Param($myProperty) Add-Type -AssemblyName System.Windows.Forms $propValu...

Re: Launch Conditions for .NET Framework 4.8 OS
Hi Catalin, thank you for your hints :) However, I interpret the "Supported Operating Systems" launch conditions as "exact", meaning that only the selected OSes will be allowed and no future (currently unknown/unconfigurable) OS is covered. Same with future build numbers with e.g...

Launch Conditions for .NET Framework 4.8 OS
Hi, I would like to share my launch conditions for the operating systems that supports .NET Framework 4.8... the regular "Launch Conditions" were not sufficient. (MsiNTProductType = 1 AND (VersionNT = 601 OR VersionNT64 = 601) AND ServicePackLevel >= 1) OR (MsiNTProductType = 1 AND (Versio...
