Hello, From what I can see in the log file, it seems that the PowerShell custom action is failing. After having a look over the .AIP file, I could notice that the PowerShell script is empty. If you do not intend of doing anything with it, could you please remove it and let me know if the issue stil ...

Hello and welcome to Advanced Installer forums, I have tried to test this scenario and everything worked as expected for me. The issue that I am having is in regards to the start menu entry where after installing both products, it results in 2 folders of the same name rather than just 1 folder (comp...

Hello and welcome to Advanced Installer forums, In what regards the error your receive, could you please re-attach the screenshot as it seems you forgot to attach it?

Hello, I am afraid that this is not possible. The launch condition is evaluated by a custom executable that is embedded in your setup file at build time if the launch condition is checked. Please let me know if there is anything else I could help you with and I will be glad to assist. Best regards, ...

Hello Ed, You are alwyas welcome! In addition to what I've mentioned above, you can maybe try to perform an upgrade but do not remove the already existing files. Please have a look on our "How do I prevent a file or registry entry from being uninstalled or repaired?" article which I think ...

Hello, This sounds like a strange behavior, indeed. I have tested this just now and everything worked as expected on my side. The file was correctly copied in the specified location. In order for me to further investigate this, could you please forward me a copy of your .AIP file and the verbose log...

Hello and welcome to Advanced Installer forums, Yes, that should be possible. Have you tried using our "Registry" page? For instance, you can recreate the registry hierarchy in the "Registry"page: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\UninstallString and have the package create...

I will let you know if in the upcoming future we will decide to implement such a feature.

Hello Steve, The dependency installs but the install doesn't pick up that the driver has been installed until after out install has run rather than during it which we need. Have you added the prerequisite as a pre-install prerequisite and it did not work? If so, did you change the "ODBC Driver&...
