Re: Signing does not work after installing KB5074109

...forgot to say that if I call Signtool from command prompt, it works OK.

Here's the command I use (which works OK):

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Caphyon\Advanced Installer 23.5.1\third-party\winsdk\x64\signtool.exe" sign /debug /fd SHA256 /sha1 <my_cert_thumbprint_here> MyApp.exe

If I uninstall the update, it works OK, but since my PC is company IT controlled it keeps pushing the same update again and again. Have you ...

Re: Advnced Installer VS2019 integration stopped working

It works now! The problem was Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI). After repairing that, Advanced Installer started to work OK. Case closed.

Re: Target dir bug

I sent you two AIP files. One before changing the Application Folder and another AIP after changing.

Here are the repro steps:
1. Create a new project without changing the Application folder. Now the folder path is [ProgramFilesFolder][Manufacturer]\[ProductName]

Target dir bug

Hi! The default target dir in the app is [ProgramFilesFolder][Manufacturer]\[ProductName]. If I want to change the default dir, it will not be changed in the aip file (it adds MultiBuildTarget instead).

If I want for example this directory; [ProgramFilesFolder][Manufacturer], the aip file content ...

Re: Detect if folder exists and run exe if not

Thanks a lot! I checked the instructions you linked already earlier, but I thought I can use it for registry check only. But I re-checked it and found out that you can actually check if a file exists, so I created a new package prerequisite in Pre-install folder and just added following new "Install ...
