Do Not Uninstall Folder and Files
I have 1 folder and 3 subfolders with files that I install with my program and I do not want these uninstalled during a uninstall by the user since this has additional files that are added by the program during the use and would be lost if these are uninstalled during the uninstall of the program. Can someone explain how I would accomplish this? Thanks in advance!!
Re: Do Not Uninstall Folder and Files
Hi and welcome to Advanced Installer forums.
Thank you for your interest in Advanced Installer.
By default, any file that is added by the application after the installation will not be removed when the application will be uninstalled.
If you want to keep a file that was installed with the application you can go in the Organization page, select the component that contains that file and check the "Permanent" checkbox.
Let us know if this helped, otherwise give us more details about your scenario.
Best regards,
Eusebiu
