Growing Setup size without reason
Posted: Tue Jan 15, 2019 10:29 am
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 new version with even some more files, but the size of the setup-file is about the half of the last version.
In numbers:
File size setup of last version: about 54 MB
"needed disk space" display: about 70 MB
really installed files: about 39 MB
File size setup of new version: about 26 MB
"needed disk space" display: about 41 MB
really installed files: about 41 MB
Besides updates of some files, the main change was, that I've removed the "Dokumentation" folder inside Installation->Files and Folders and put it in again using "Add Folder...". Before, every single document in it was added by files I guess (some pdf-Files).
If you need them, I can also send you the setup files per email or whatever u prefer (if your inbox is big enough)
Kind regards
Adrian
