Single installer for x86/x64/ARM64

Mon Oct 31, 2022 11:56 pm

My goal is for a customer to be able to click the download link on our website for "Windows" and the installer works, regardless of the CPU architecture of the PC they are running. ie the same way Mac works - the customer clicks the link for the Mac download and it works regardless of the CPU architecture.

As it stands today I think I need to create two projects, one for x86/x64 mixed and one for ARM64, build the two installers, then come up with my own magic to wrap the two with a script to launch the right one.

Hello,

Thank you for your suggestion!

Please note that we already have this on our TODO list of improvements.

I will update this thread as soon as I will have more information about this/when this will be implemented.

Hello,

I'm afraid that this has not been implemented just yet.

However, as you previously mentioned, what we can do here is create a package for each and then a wrapper over those 3 added as prerequisites.

We can use as an install condition the following properties: VersionNT (for 32-bit), VersionNT64 (for 64-bit) and AiArm64.

For more details about this, please have a look over the following article:

How do I install resources based on the Operating System version?
