Hi In order to achieve this you can create a property in the Install Parameters page (i.e. DESKTOP) and set its value to 1. Then go in the Organization page, select the component that contains your shortcut and set its condition based on the property you created (DESKTOP = 1). When you run your pack...

Hi, Please keep in mind that the intended functionality of the path variable is to store the whole path to a directory, not only the name of the directory.

Else, it is not supported by Advanced Installer to keep the username and password, when they are modified directly in the services.msc. This situation is similar to the case when s...

Hi Scott, You don't have to write your own custom action. In order to be able to update the registry during maintenance you have to do the following steps: Remove the persistent properties you created and create them again as you see in the example below, but do not select the "Set persistent p...
