Hello.
We made an installation routine for our product. If the admin installs it all is working fine. But if he logs off and another user logs on the system the user is asked for the .msi - file to set up the software for this user.
But, unfortunately, the msi file is not here because we made a single .exe install file which gets unpacked temporarily for installation and the content is getting deleted after installation.
So, what can we do to prevent this behaviour that the user is getting asked for install files. Or do we have to distribute the install-routine in an unpacked format ?
The setup option is set to install the software per machine if user is admin, per user otherwise.
We are using the current version of Advancedinstaller. User System is Windows XP SP2.
Greetings from Germany

Hi,
This could happen if you have installed resources (an executable program, for example) that must be available to all users, in private locations (such as "My Documents" folder).
The solution would be to use only public locations ("Program Files" for example) for files that must be accessible to all users, not user dependent folders.
