Thanks for the clarification. I also thought "Uninstall" was the right place to check - I have never noticed the "Products" location before (and several products don't appear there - not just ours)....

Thanks for the clarification. I also thought "Uninstall" was the right place to check - I have never noticed the "Products" location before (and several products don't appear there - not just ours)....
A client is using an automated deployment system and wonders why our software does not create a registry key (GUID) in HKEY\SOFTWARE\Classes\Installer\Products. Their system relies on this key to...
Thanks :) Did not notice the "& App" part :o
I noticed the same issue. So I delete the firewall exception first and then add it again.
I have made an improved uninstaller for a project with a custom uninstaller script, but I notice that the uninstaller exe is not replaced during an update of existing installations. This means that...
I was unable to re-create the issue in an example project, so I have sent the original project by e-mail.
In one of my scripts it appears to be a conflict between "wait dialogs" and "progress dialogs". The setup application crashes when attempting to open the progress dialog after a wait dialog has been...
I'd be happy to try the internal SB81.
I'm aware that the risk of a file lock is always there, but a Windows reboot is simply not a good solution in our case. So I just want the installation/...
Good to hear you were able to re-create it. I have not explanation why this turned up in SB8 and not SB7. I will probably replace the "Install File" functions with my own file update handling (from a...
Thanks for the reply. I will send the script by e-mail.
The only other change apart from updating from SetupBuilder from v8.0 to 8.1 was adding a #ifcompvar statement around the "Install File"...
After I updated to SetupBuilder 8.1 I noticed strange behavior by our setup files on a couple of machines.
First, FUNCTION:check In-use returns 0 (not in use)

Moving the function from the bottom of the script to just after all files are transferred to the installation folder appears to have fixed the problem.
Ok, thanks. Just thought I'd check before I did more testing.
What could generally cause this function to crash?
My installer crashes at the line "Access Control: Grant File Access". This have worked fine earlier. I recently updated to the latest build of SB - v7.7.3769. Any ideas?
Thanks!
What's the difference between silent mode (/S) and quiet mode (/Q) (if any)?
Is it possible to hide the file progress window in silent mode (i.e. show no GUI at all)?
I consequently get decryption error -61 (Bad or missing decryption key) when attempting to unzip an encrypted zip file even though the correct password is indicated. The file decrypts fine with other...
It is very time-consuming to add check for files in use manually. Would it be possible to get this as built-in functionality?
At least I would like a function to check if any of the files that...
I thought so. I think I'll go the DLL route - but thanks for the example anyway :).
Is there a function to get the ip address of the machine you are installing on in SB?
I noticed there was a post from 2007 regarding setting service recovery options from SB (when creating the service), but is there any news on this? This would be a very practical feature.

Good to hear! :)
It turned out that just before it creates the service the setupbuilder project adds some Firewall settings. This caused the setup to stop/ crash on Windows 2000 at that point so it never reached the...
Okay, thanks. I will try again.
In addition I've found that a restart is required in order to make Windows 2000 fully aware of changes to the system path. The error message actually shows that...
