Folder Creation

Wed Oct 27, 2021 1:32 pm

During a project build, i created a new folder under a synchronised folder.
I then saved the project and committed the change in SVN.
When i built the project into an installer everything went fine.
I installed the application and found that the new folder was not present.

Is this due to the folder above it is being synchronised, if so what do i do to prevent it being removed?
Thanks.

Hello Ian,

I have tested this scenario (without SVN, though) and everything seemed to be working as expected on my end.

After adding one more folder on the disk (under the folder that is synchronized), the folder was correctly added in my Advanced Installer project when the synchronization was refreshed.

Also, after the installation, the folder was created on disk, as expected.

With that being said, in order for me to further investigate this, could you please create a sample project that reproduces this and forward it to me, together with a step-by-step test case which I can follow in order to reproduce the issue on my end?

Best regards,
Catalin
