Azure DevOps - Timeline for minimum required version 18.6.1

[ankur]

"We want to provide the best experience for you and support the newest Advanced Installer features. To do so, we will no longer be supporting older versions of the software in the near future. Please note that the minimum required version is 18.6.1 and the detected version is 17.3."

I am not sure how recent the change is but I noticed above warning message when I was setting up a new Yaml based Azure DevOps build pipeline for Advanced Installer Build project.

Can you please help me understand if there is any specific timeline around when the older versions prior to 18.6.1 will not be supported on Azure DevOps build pipeline tasks?

Hello,

Please check the Invalid Advanced Installer version detected forum thread discussing the same scenario.

These changes are exptected to be included in a major update (3.0) soon (I do not have a date for this):

Please consider upgrading your version of Advanced Installer as soon as possible.

Best regards,
