Hide MSI files on prerequisite install

Hi,

I have created a chained installation of 2 MSI files. I have configured on Advanced Installer the Prerequisites and they are working just fine.

However, I wanted to encapsulate both msi files after building my installer so that they are not available on the target folder -- in case a user tries to click the MSI files separately and install them without my custom installer.

Is there a way to "embed" the msi files in the final exe created by Advanced Installer? I could not find that option.

Thank you in advance!

Re: Hide MSI files on prerequisite install

Hi Matheus and welcome to Advanced Installer forums,

This is possible by choosing "Single EXE setup (resources inside)" option from the Media page -> your_build -> Configuration tab.

All the best,
