OS version message

I have version 3 and version 4 of a product. Both are 64-bit only. V3 was originally built with AI 8.3 and was upgraded over the years to 11.7.1. When run on a 32-bit system, I get the following warning: [Window Title] Windows Installer [Main Instruction] This installation package is not supported b...

Re: MSVS 2013 repair dialog with every MSI built

For anyone who finds this, the most recent dll's still work for fixing this:

regsvr32 /u "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\bin\x86\mergemod.dll"
regsvr32 "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\bin\x86\mergemod.dll"

Re: MSVS 2013 repair dialog with every MSI built

Sorry, didn't get a notification. No, this is not a clean machine. Everything was working fine, but this problem started up again today. I installed VS 2013 Update 4 last week, so that is likely what triggered it.

Re: Modified StartMenuShortcutsDlg

Could you detail the steps needed for the desktop shortcut? I am having a similar issue. The desktop shortcut is the only one the user should be able to toggle. However, I didn't want to add a dialog for just one checkbox. When I copy the checkbox to another dialog, unchecking it has no effect; the ...

Re: MSVS 2013 repair dialog with every MSI built

I installed VS 2013 today and encountered the same problem. I used the same solution when I had this problem a few years ago (registering mergemod.dll):

I have several copies of this DLL, but just used the same one as before.

Re: Icon missing in maintenance dialog

I had forgotten about that. Our installation has nothing to modify, so the button didn't make sense. Thanks.

Icon missing in maintenance dialog

One of my installations is missing the icon for the Modify button. See attached image. Suggestions? Using 10.9.1 until product ships, then will be updating to 11.x.

Re: 64-bit package only allows per-machine installation type

I'm sure you're aware, but the reverse is also a problem. I'm using 10.8.

I imported an old aip project with the package type set to 64-bit. The installation type is "per-machine .... per-user". It will not let me change the Installation Type, saying the two settings are not compatible.

Removing CancelDlg

Is it possible to bypass the cancel confirmation dialog? Microsoft's current guidelines recommend this and I tend to agree for our simple setup: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ee915058.aspx#streamlining "Don't confirm setup cancellation. If users click Cancel during set...

Re: Installation size keeps changing

Figured this out. I've been having another problem where my installs were corrupted. Didn't put the two events together. I am building directly to a network drive, which always worked well before I upgraded to 8.3, but has been inconsistent since then. I will change my build process to build locally...

Installation size keeps changing

Is there a reason the installation size would constantly change? I'm using 8.3 Build 36963. If I run the install 4 times in a row, I will get 4 different sizes. For example 38000 KB to 38300 KB. I disabled the cache, but that did not help.

Enhanced User Interface requires elevated privileges

Subject says it all. I'm using 7.2.1. When using the EUI, I receive the following error if I am not an administrator and install on a per-user basis: "You do not have sufficient privileges to complete this installation for all users of the machine. Log on as administrator and then retry this in...
