Re: Growing Setup size without reason

Hi Leo, well, sadly that is not the answer. Would be too easy to solve i guess ^^ My SourceDir is an untouched directory inside the parent directory of my aip-File and my Output directory, so they sit parallel to each other. The Source Folder doesn't include the location where the output is stored (...

Re: Dialogs

Hi, In some cases I also need more custom informations (or something including a FolderBrowserDialogue) during installation. So my solution here is always to create my own dialogues as executable little programs and add them using "commands" and before/after installation. If the command fa...

Growing Setup size without reason

Hi Leo, I've investigated a little bug in filesize of the setup itself and the display of the "needed disk space" inside the installer (I'm still using Actual Installer 6.9) While we made new versions of our little tool, the size of the setup continuously grew a little bit. Now I've made a...

Re: Close Running App on Uninstall

Thanks, great, that makes me much more flexible in adding background-programms inside commands, which do every strange thing I want my system to do on (un)installation and which in some cases fail to do it. Will test it these days :-)

File searched inside old source dir

I have a bug regarding a changed source directory. In my application, there is a file called "NamedPipes.dll", this file is inside source directory folder (automatically added). Due to a change of the source directory, every file now seems to be read from the new location, also this file: ...

Re: Close Running App on Uninstall

Thanks Greg, so, at the moment, I did a workaround in my case for this shutdown of the application. But for the user, its not really comfortable. So again my question: Is it possible to abort the uninstallation, if any of my "Before Uninstallation"-Commands failed? Lets say it doesn't matt...

Re: Close Running App on Uninstall

Thanks, I completely forgot the option to use cmd commands. Sadly, in my special case, killing the task or process is no option :-/ Because in the programm I need to close (CAD-CAM-Software), user may never loose any unsaved changes. Therefore he needs to be prompted to save his work manually and I ...

Re: Cannot register Codebase Dlls

I know this, but there is no possibility to register codebase ! I've already tested every option in there. May I just add the entry from msdn ( https://msdn.microsoft.com/de-de/library/tzat5yw6(v=vs.110).aspx ): Option: /codebase Creates a Codebase entry in the registry. The Codebase entry specifies...

Close Running App on Uninstall

I like the feature to define a running app that must be closed before installation. In my case, working with codebase-dlls which can be accessed (and blocked) by another programm, I also would like to define a running app that must be closed before uninstallation! Becaus if the programm using my dll...

Cannot register Codebase Dlls

Up to now I could not find a way to register my assembly-Dll codebase, did I miss anything? As a workaround I wrote myself a little .exe that registers my Dll (2 classes within) and a second one to unregister after uninstallation and used them in commands. It just provides the funcionality of Regasm...
