Windows Installer Minimum Version Question

[tlentine]

In AI (v. 7.0.1), is the Windows Installer Minimum version 4.05 = Windows Installer 4.5?

I want my MSI to take advantage of Chained Packages, which I understand to only be available using Windows Installer 4.5 or greater.

Will specifying 4.05 as the minimum Windows Installer version prevent my MSI from running on systems with versions of Windows Installer < 4.5?

Thanks!

Hi,

Yes, "4.05" is the value returned by the VersionMsi property. In a future version of Advanced Installer the user-friendly version will be displayed.

Will specifying 4.05 as the minimum Windows Installer version prevent my MSI from running on systems with versions of Windows Installer < 4.5?

Yes.
