Advanced Installer Community

Hi,

I've tested the project that you sent to our support email address, but I couldn't reproduce the issue. Does the issue constantly happen on the one machine that you mentioned? If so, can you try to build the package using the latest version of Advanced Installer and see if that helps?

Best ...

You're welcome, Andrii. Glad to assist.

Best regards,

Hi Andrii,

Sorry for my late reply.

Actually, setting a version tag for all the files in the folder is what our "Always overwrite existing files" option do. But since that option sets the version on all the files, you can use your script to set it only on the files you want and that should work as ...

Hi and welcome to our forums.

The 500 x 59 image size for the banner is correct. I've just tested it and it was displayed as expected for me. Do you encounter the same issue on multiple monitor resolutions with different DPIs? If so, can you send some test resources to support at advancedinstaller ...

Hello and welcome to our forums.

In order to achieve this, you can synchronize your folder to a new path by using the "NewSync" command as detailed on the "New Synchronized Folder Command Option" page.

Let me know if you have other questions.

Hi Andrii,

Indeed, your scenario is not that simple. The easiest solution that I can think of is to set the "Always overwrite existing files" option for the folder first, then select the "Do not overwrite existing file" for each file that you do not want to overwrite. This way the later option will ...

You're welcome. I'm glad this worked.

Hi,

I'm afraid that this is an old Windows Installer bug that has never been fixed as mentioned in the " Why do one or more files disappear after an upgrade is performed " FAQ that talks about the same issue.

This problem appears only when a file's version is decreased in the newer version of the ...

Hi,

I've tested your project and reproduced the behavior. However, looking at the configuration of your project I've noticed that you use the "Generate instances at install time" option for your multiple instances and this seems to be the cause of the issue.

Please keep in mind that this option ...

Hi,

Thank you for the sample project you've sent.

I tested it and, indeed, I reproduced the problem. This seems to be an Advanced Installer issue. A fix will be available in a future version of Advanced Installer. We will update this thread when the fix will be available.

Best regards,

Hi,

Indeed, it seems that the "Suite Installation.aip" project from our suite installation sample contains some misconfigurations. We will update it in a future version of Advanced Installer. Thank you for bringing this to our attention!

In this meantime, you can use the the fixed project attached ...

Hi,

Thank you for the test project.

Please keep in mind that this happens because the "APPDIR" property is not set to any value at the moment the prerequisite is launched during a silent installation.

During a Full UI installation, the APPDIR property is set on the Dialogs stage and the ...

Hi Rafael,

Issue 1: Control Panel Displays Incorrect Information
I'm not sure why this happens, maybe something got corrupted on that machine. Do you reproduce the issue on multiple clean machines? Also, it's strange to me that the installer shows version 1.3 and the "Programs and Features" view ...

Hi Henrique,

Thank you for sending me your project so I can investigate it. After looking at it, I've found that the new standard action that is supposed to migrate the properties from the main package to the prerequisite was not added to the project during its conversion.

I've fixed the project ...

Hi Henrique,

Your configuration seems correct, indeed, and the property's value should be passed correctly. Can you send me your project so I can investigate it and try to find the issue?

Best regards,
Eusebiu
