Hello Srikanth, From what I can see, you have a problem during an "Upgrade" . An upgrade is essentially the removal of an older product, followed by the installation of a newer product. In case there are no previous versions installed, the setup will proceed with a normal installation. Aft...

Hello and welcome to our forums, What you want to achieve is actually a default setting of Advanced Installer. "Pre-Install" prerequisites are displayed in the Boostrapper "PrerequisiteDlg" in case they are not installed on the target machine, otherwise the dialog will not be dis...

Hello and welcome to our forums, First of all, sorry for the delayed reply. Due to security reasons, we had an improvement regarding the "Password" field from the "Account tab". Even if it displays "*" , you can still set your password property there as explained in the...

Hello George, I have tested your scenario and I reproduced the behavior. Having a deeper look into the log, it seems like the application is launched after the installation is over, but the process is ending immediately (I have tested this using Windows Task Manager, where I could see the applicatio...

Hello Thiago, I have tested it and you are right. The time to wait before performing the specified action is, indeed, in minutes, not in milliseconds. Unfortunately, there is no way you can set it to execute after 30 seconds, the minimum time to wait before performing the action being 1 minute. Than...

Hello, Can you give us some more details about your Operating System, please ? For example the Windows Version and Architecture. Can you replicate this behavior on multiple clean machines ?

Hello and welcome to our forums, Yes, this is the expected behavior. Chained packages are packages embedded in your MSI. That being said, if you don't enable the "Run as administrator" option in your current package, you will be asked for permision for each of your packages. Also keep in m...

Hello and welcome to our forums, I have tried to reproduce your scenario, but I did not encounter any problems. I have created a setup using a trial version of Advanced Installer on a Virtual Machine and then imported it on Main Machine. Is this part of trial, where you can't fully test even though ...

You're welcome! I am glad I could help.

A major upgrade is a two-steps process: 1) the old version is uninstalled 2) the new version is installed For deciding if a file is installed or...

Hello, Unfortunately, I could not reproduce your scenario. I have tried to follow it step-by-step but the problem did not reproduce. Can you please send us the .aip (project files) by e-mail at support at advancedinstaller dot com so we can investigate their settings, followed by a test case which r...

Hello, Just to make sure I fully understand your problem: Do you mean that your setup does not run the application after it is installed ? Or do you mean that your setup does not run properly ? Can you please send us the .aip (project file) by e-mail at support at advancedinstaller dot com so we can...

Hello Hagay and welcome to Advanced Installer forums, Yes, this is achievable by "Creating a Suite Installation" . As for the files you want to copy and don't have an installer, you can simply add them in "Files and Folder" page from the "Resources" group. If you want t...

Hello and welcome to Advanced Installer forums, First of all, sorry for the delayed reply. Unfortunately, there is no predefined support for your scenario. As a workaround, you can use a "Custom approach to launch a file, folder or URL" . After that, you can create a predefined "Launc...
