Recently, sometime after adding some Visual C runtime merge modules, my installer no longer completes a build via the IDE.
The installer project hasn't changed, and I'm still using AI v13.2.2.
So I guess this is a recent conflict with Windows 10 or Visual studio 2013/2017.
First I see this...
...which does complete.
Then I see this...
...which never ends. Clicking Cancel does nothing. I must use Task Manager to kill AI process.
Although partly obscured, the last item in the log is 'Writing Summary Information'
If I remove the .msm merge modules, this does not occur.
This issue looks similar to this old report:
Forum Post - Problem with 8.4
That person said the issue went away after a Windows 7 update. That was a few Windows versions ago.
