问题 I have an installer project I created using Visual 2012's built-in InstallShield Limited Edition Wizard. I have a need to modify this project on a new computer. The source code was saved and obtained via Team Foundation Server. So far, I've opened the solution in Visual Studio 2015, installed the Visual Studio Installer Projects Extension, and I'm still receiving the (incompatible) message along with the collapsed message "The application is not installed" for the installer project

问题 We have around 8 different programs each with its own MSI / EXE installer. What is the best way to create a single installer that will give users a list of the 8 different programs and then based on the apps the user wants to install they will start the installer one by one. The installer can run and just launch the app installers one by one and don't need to automatically install all the apps behind the scenes. Thanks 回答1: I'd use the free InnoSetup for that. It also comes with Pascal

问题 I have a WiX 3 project that has hundreds of files, and I can't seem to figure out how to include them all using a wildcard. I have tried this: heat.exe" dir ".\!Build" -gg -ke -template:fragment -out "Files.wxs" This produces a fragment .wxs file, but I'm not sure what to do with it. Any help would be much appreciated. 回答1: Try this command heat dir "Your_Directory" -gg -ke -template:Product -out "Files.wxs" It will create this structure in the generated wxs file {Files.wxs}: <Fragment>

问题 I'm using Wix 3.x and the user should be able to choose the target directory. My Setup.wxs is currently like here: http://pastebin.com/uH1EjbDQ What is the simplest way to ask the user for a custom target directory? (INSTALLDIR/TARGETDIR?!) I have seen example in which people build there own dialog pages but this isn't really necessary, is it? Update: When I add <Property Id="WIXUI_INSTALLDIR" Value="INSTALLDIR"/> <UIRef Id="WixUI_InstallDir" /> after <UIRef Id="WixUI_Mondo" /> but before <

问题 I am working on a window application (Ex. a calculator) in VS2015. I had created a setup file for this application which will install the application in PC. Can we write code inside the setup project (like adding a new .cs file or something like that) because I am trying to create my own product key (custom key) specific to every PC? Also, that code should run while installing the product very first time on desktop asking for the product key to the user. Once the window application gets

问题 I'm trying to install a certificate in the Local Machine Store in a custom action. The certificate is installed, but when I use it to query AWS, I get this error: Object contains only the public half of a key pair. A private key must also be provided. The installer is running elevated , the target is Windows Vista. If I use a separate .exe to install the exact same certificate, using the exact same code, it works. So what is it that differs when installing a certificate using the Windows

问题 I have written and am maintaining a number of Wix installation source files which I use to build MSI files for distribution of my application. I have not explicitly programmed for any kind of upgrading, updating, reinstallation or anything of the kind -- there is a single feature that consists of a number of components with stable GUIDs and I have observed that at least a clean installation does what I expect it to. However, I (and anyone in possession of the MSI files I distribute) may
