Advanced Installer Community

Hello Thiago, I have reproduced your scenario and indeed, I have encountered the same behavior. First of all, please keep in mind that Windows Installer ignores the fourth field of the Product Version by default. In your case, version 18.6.0.2 is the same as the version 18.6.0.3. Even if the fourth ...

You're always welcome, Thiago!

Hello and welcome to our forums, I have some issues when it comes to prerequisites. In case one is not installed properly, e.g. user pressed (accidentally) cancel when prompted to install, it seems the prerequisite is handled as if installed. In order to avoid this behavior, you can uncheck the &quo...

Hello Kiran, Our development team further investigated and it seems that Advanced Installer gets the file name and its extension by parsing the URL string. So, that's why your .EXE file was opened with Notepad, because the file that was downloaded from that URL was actually "software.aspx"...

Hi Kiran,

Unfortunately, I do not know a timeline for releasing this fix. It is on our TODO list with a high priority.

We will update this thread as soon as it will be available.

Thanks for your understanding!

Best regards,

Hello Srikanth,

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 ? For testing purposes we always recommend to be used virtual machines with clean states so that when something ...

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.

Catalin
