Installed files timestamp changed

Post by Mikeblt »

The Actual Installer 6.0 Pro is not preserving the original files dates.
This is not quite good in many cases and I did receive a reply from the support team that this feature is not supported.

I understand that was easier to update the files date stamp for a normal installation where the uninstaller can easy find the original files based on the new dates.

I found the data.zip option ((with 7za.exe) that works great and is preserving the original dates.
But has the drawback to push the forced Uninstall option (that will remove all my customers files created after the original installation, in the same install folder).

I was just wandering if you plan to update the program to execute correctly uninstall when using the data.zip option? I meant without using the force uninstall option.
