Which protocols are supported for 'Updates configuration file URL' in Updater panel of an installer project?

Our organization produces applications for Mac and Windows platforms and in both cases we use an update-configuration methodology, with a remote file. On the most recent MacOS editions, the path to the remote file must use the https protocol.

Uninstall after updater has run requires Repair beforehand

We have created a 1.6.5 installer, and an updater that calls it for previous versions (1.6.4 and below), and are now encountering a problem with the Windows uninstall command for the first time ever. We've built our versions and updaters with AI 9.x for 10 releases in a row, the same way, and this ...

Re: AdvAI Search not looking in USB

I need more explanation of what you mean by "choose an ID component (ComponentId) which doesn't get changed from one version to the next from the Organization Page -> Component Properties"

Re: AdvAI Search not looking in USB

We too are having trouble with an .msi that we want to run as an update to an application installed on a USB drive. (Our primary post is topic 20091.) We're resuming our efforts to solve this problem, and searching the forums led to this thread.

Re: Upgrade/update fails with permission error

Further investigation has shown that in our situation, the upgrade can be successfully performed (using the same .aip files we sent you earlier in this thread, modified to allow install on a fixed drive) in the following situation. If we load the target install on a C: drive and then run the upgrade ...

Re: Upgrade/update fails with permission error

We're assuming that the installer features described in the MSDN page (URL provided above) are manipulated, within an AI project, in the Resources:Files and Folders panel. Given that assumption, is there any *specific* permissions setting to apply to a file -- especially a .dll file, which may by ...
