So, I’m working on a huge installation project and when I go to debug it, it seems as if it’s reading that the installer is in the installation folder for my SB program. The reason why this is a bit concerning is that I am checking for the existence of an answer file which normally wouldn’t be in my set up builder installation directory. Is this expected behavior? Or is what I believe should be happening correct? What I believe should be happening is that when I click debug if it’s not already been compiled the installation should compile as if it was a normal install to the location specified and project properties then be run from there. At least that’s what I think should be happening I could very well be wrong.

Hello,

it's very well possible that a debugger started installer and the real have different "default" folders and so the debugger instance is looking for the answer file in a potentially wrong folder (but only in the debugger mode).
