Re: Custom Install Paths and Major Upgrades
Hi Catalin. Thank you for the response. In order to set a folder for a feature, a property based folder must be used. There are two issues I have with this solution: This results in an unorganized list of folders in the "Files and Folders" view. Compare "MyFolder1" with "TES...

Re: Prevent IIS Features Being Installed
I have tested this just now using both Advanced Installer 16.7 and 16.8 and everything worked as expected on my end - only the selected features were enabled in the "Windows Features" ("Turn Windows features on or off") pane. Hmm... it also seems to work correctly for me if I cr...

After that, you can use the following command in your command line : AdvancedInstaller.com /execute <path_to_project_file> <command_file_path> For more information about this, you can check o...

Re: Is Advanced Installer taking Customer Issues Serious?
While it is true that marketing features are important for us (they bring in new revenue without which there would be no Advanced Installer at all), continuously improving and enhancing our existing product is most definitely a top priority.

Re: Enhanced UI and Command Line Parameters
Thanks for the update. This is why I think the option to disable the EUI should be put back in. Issues like this and the feature disablement issue ( http://www.advancedinstaller.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=34248 ) are more likely to pop up. The Windows Installer/MSI technology is ... finicky ...

Hello, This is the second issue I'm running into since the Enhanced UI (EUI) change (reference: http://www.advancedinstaller.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=34215 ). I have the following batch file: REM Path to the installer executable SET SetupPath="C:\Users\spero\Desktop\Install64\Statistica 14.0....
