Installer for .NET 2.0 application for Windows 98

由 萝らか妹 提交于 2019-12-07 18:33:49
问题 How can an automatic installer for .NET 2.0 application be created for Windows 98? I mean for application and also for .NET 2.0 if missing. I tried to do it by creating a setup project for Visual Studio 2008, but I didn't succeed. I installed IE6 SP1 manually, but Installer still crashed. Windows Installer 2.0 is installed. It's impossible to install Installer 3.0 there. I unchecked Installer at Setup Project prerequisites, but still it's not possible to install the application - the error

问题 A synopsis of my question: Is it possible to use your own, custom variables (the way that you can use [TARGETDIR]) in the Registry screen of a Windows Setup project in VS2010? Specifically, I need to store my assembly's strong name and assembly version in the registry, in order to register a COM object on a machine without the installing user having admin rights.

Visual Studio 2010 update registry in setup application

问题 I've recently created an application for my brother to use, it has several entries stored in the registry that it uses. I created a Setup Application in VS2010 so he can install the application to his PC with ease and set the entries to some default values for him, which he has changed. e.g. I have a entry called "SummaryFolder" and the value of "Successfully Installed" - so when it was installed it would have the default value. He will have changed this by now to an actual folder on his PC.

问题 I overrode OnBeforeUninstall to stop my application's setup project from uninstalling it under certain circumstances, but it seems like it is just not being called and has no effect. protected override void OnBeforeUninstall(IDictionary savedState) { if (ApplicationIsBusy()) throw new ApplicationException("Prevent uninstall while application busy."); } I am able to cancel uninstall by overriding the Uninstall method, but by then the setup project has already closed my application. How do I

由 守給你的承諾、 提交于 2019-12-06 05:51:38
