Hello,
During addition of ARM64 platform to our product installer(desktop app), I found that the build type set to EXE (single or with resource next to it) will generate an installer that does not work on the ARM64 architecture (Windows 10 or 11, latest or otherwise).
The error pops immediately when the installer is run on an ARM64 machine: "This installation package is not supported by this processor type.". The hardware used was a Surface Pro X with Microsoft SQ2 processor. Same result on VMs.
The MSI built types work just fine.
The test was done also on a new, simple, *follow the wizard*, installer project, with AI version 18.9 (also upgrader afterwards to 19.3 with same result)
As the MSI build works, the workaround is acceptable for us, but I think raising the issue is still worthy.
Best regards,
Gabriel Iacob
