Hello,

Yes, it is possible.

In order to achieve that, please go to "Product Details" page and, in the "Name" field, add the following:

Code: Select all

[|ProductVersion]
e.g.:

Code: Select all

Your Application [|ProductVersion]
Hope this helps!

No, that changes the product name to include the version. I only wish to have the version number as part of the MSI name.

Hello Andy,

If you want to make only the MSI name contain the version, please go to "Builds" page --> "Output" section --> "MSI Name" field.
