Remove version number from AI install path

Please remove the version number from the Advanced Installer installation path. Example: C:\Program Files (x86)\Caphyon\Advanced Installer 21.8.2\

Unless I'm missing something, I'll have to look for the correct path every time when scripting the command-line because the path will change after every update. I could automate finding it but i shouldn't have to.

Re: Remove version number from AI install path

Hello,

Please note that the version in the path is required for clients who install Advanced Installer side-by-side.

What you can do is use a variable for the version and then use this variable to construct the path.

After doing so, you would only need to change the variable and all the paths will be updated.

Best regards,
