How to start application after updating automaticall

I use the AI 7.1.3 enterprise to create a exe with bootstrapper and the msi included.

When a user updates my application, the installation is started with the parameter /qr so that all is done automatically.
But with this the finish dialog is not shown and though the value of then checkbox 'launch application' not evaluated.

But I want my application to be started in case of such an update, either by a command line paramter or any other solution.

thank you,
Chris

Hi Chris,

You can use a Launch File or Open URL custom action placed under the InstallFinalize standard action to launch your application.
Let me know if that helped.

Best regards,
Gabriel
