Hello Liviu,
Thank you for your response and for clarifying that the restriction originates from the Azure DevOps task.
However, I would like to reiterate that this policy is problematic for us from an operational and contractual standpoint.
We understand and appreciate the importance of security ...

Re: Detection of "OLDPRODUCTS" through FindRelatedProducts action fails
We think, we were able to find the root cause for this behavior: The customer had installed an old version of our product (with all features) on the affected machine before. There were still some files left that were not uninstalled properly. After we deleted those files, the installer worked as ...

Our installer has 4 features, the user can decide to install only some of them. When an update is installed, we want the setup to preserve the selection and update the ...

Re: Language / Translation Problem with Surface theme
Hi Liviu,
yes, as far as I could see it, this problem only occurred on the prerequisites dialog.
However, the other problem "Selection of setup language is ignored" is valid for all other pages as well.
I will send my AIP file.

Re: Windows Defender detects virus when executing a setup built with AI
Hello Catalin,
our user is using McAfee VirusScan Enterprise - maybe you should tell them as well to whitelist this behavior. I will ask him whether he is using latest definitions.

A similar behavior was reported today by one of our customers. When he is running our setup, the following warning occurs:
Can you please have a look at it?

Re: Azure Devops: Build fails with AI 18.6
Hello Liviu,
sorry, that doesn't make any sense. It works perfectly fine, when I only change one thing: I switch back to version 18.5.
I didn't change anything else.
I am not using signtool.exe, but as far as I understand this message YOUR exe C:\hostedtoolcache\windows\advinst\18.6.0\x86\custact ...

Re: Changing Fonts - "Use Indirection" option
Hi Catalin,
I still don't get it.
For example, I select a text field in the "MaintenanceTypeDlg" and see, it has text style "use indirection: True" & "IndirectProperty: SubTitleStyle"
If I then go to the font settings and look for the property "SubTitleStyle", I see that the the text style ...

Azure Devops: Build fails with AI 18.6
Our build pipeline was set to always use the latest version. Today (after using AI 18.6), we received the following error:

Re: Changing Fonts - "Use Indirection" option
Hi Catalin,
you were totally right. I didn't know that you could change the theme per build.
Thank you very much for your help!
Now, only the bug using the "indirection" option still exists, leading to having to change the fonts for every single page, but at least there's a workaround :-)

Hello Catalin,
are you sure, you actually built the setup or used the "Test Installation UI" option?
I built the setup with different machines and used different machines for running the setup. The result is always the same: The background is black.
