Program files missing after installation

[ScubaD]

Hi!

I have created an installer package with the free version of Advanced Installer (v. 2.02). The installation seems to work fine and the program is installed according to the control panel's Add/Remove programs.

The problem is that the files are never installed. Anyone had this problem before?

I am using a single msi file and install the package on Windows XP SP1. I have a few application files and also added an OCX to the System32 folder and marked it for automatic registration.

Help, please!

Hi ScubaD,

Please send the .aip project file to support at advancedinstaller.com so we can try to duplicate this problem on our test computer.

Thanks,

Philip

I have mailed you the project file.

Everything looks fine in the .aip project you sent.

The only problem I see is that you placed your files in Application Data and not in the Application Folder.

The Application Data folder is a special windows folder that translates to C:\Documents and Settings\<UserName>\Application Data.

You should place your files in the Application Folder instead. You can change the location of this folder from the Install Parameters page. By default, it has the following value:

[ProgramFilesFolder][Manufacturer]\[ProductName]

Let me know if this fixes your problem.

Best regards,

Philip
