you must install the 32-bit Windows imaging component (WIC)

Hello,

I have created installer for my application which was running fine. Now when i created new installer for release and tested on a clean windows server 2003. I got following Error from installer .

"you must install the 32-bit Windows imaging component (WIC) before you run setup"

my question is why this error is coming now and how is it related with my installer which was working fine till now and what's the solution for this without adding WIC.exe as pre-requisite?

Hello,

I have discussed the issue with the development team and Advanced Installer does not use Windows Installer Imaging component as a prerequisite.

Can you please send us the .AIP (project file) and a verbose log of the installation to support at advancedinstaller dot com so we can investigate them?

All the best,
Mihai

Hi,

I noticed Windows Imaging Component is one of your prerequisites. If it's needed during install, try setting the prerequisite as global. This way it's installed before your MSI is launched.
