stand-alone .exe as a prerequisite

[peterk]

I actually have 3 bare .exe (docker that ships just a zip file with exe files) files that I need to somehow add a a prerequisite. I am not sure the best way to handle this. I want to have a condition for the version of the .exe so if a new updater has a newer version it will prompt for installation. I could create an AI project and create my own "custom docker installer" exe containing the three files but I don't know if that is the right approach.
TIA

Hello Peter,

I'm not really familiar with your specific scenario.

However, you should be able to create an installation package for your EXE files just fine with Advanced Installer.

Regarding the prerequisite, you could use our "Prerequisites" page.

I am not sure the best way to handle this. I want to have a condition for the version of the .exe so if a new updater has a newer version it will prompt for installation.

If I understand this correctly, you could achieve the desired behavior by using the "Check for updates before installation" option from "Updater" page --> "Pre-Install Updates" section.


Best regards,
Catalin
