Required Windows Installer version minimum doesn't show error message

Hi

When setting Windows Installer version to 5.0 and using the Bootstrapper in Advanced Installer there is no error shown when starting the setup on a system with a lower Windows Installer version.
Tested with an old Windows Server 2008 Image with Windows Installer 4.5

When launching the created exe there seems to happen nothing, so the customer doesn't know whats wrong until starting the exe with /exelog
A simple popup error message would be enough.

Kind regards,
Michael

Re: Required Windows Installer version minimum doesn't show error message

Hello Michael,

I've tested the scenario on a Windows Server 2008 machine, but the launch condition for Windows Installer 5.0 was always triggered. Can you please send us the .AIP (project file) and a verbose log of the installation to support at advancedinstaller dot com so we can investigate them?

All the best,
Daniel
