Install of multiple Microsoft Hotfix (MSU) files via single MSI file

Hi,

I need help to create custom MSI build (with resources) that will install single/multiple Microsoft MSU type files. I have a working VB script that will install all MSU files from the directory it is being run without restarting the PC. However, I am not sure how to include MSU files and run VB script against them for my MSI build. I am open to other better options as well.

Thanks,

Robin.

Hi Robin,

VB scripts can be run from the custom actions page with a Launch attached file or Launch file predefined custom action for example.

However, you could try to add the MSU files as prerequisites from the Prerequisites page.

All the best,
