Using a InstallScript C# .Net Wizard to connect to a WinForms solution where I used the dependency scanner to identify project outputs. The install package is copying the un-merged app.config file to the target directory instead of the solutions merged MyApp.exe.config file. This results in a executable that does not properly pickup configuration file settings not only because the file isn't named correctly but it also does not merge in target environment settings (ie. release, debug, etc.). How do you have the Installer copy the merged MyApp.exe.config file to the Install Directory? Try this,

I'd like to change the security attribute of a directory that InstallShield creates under the CSIDL_COMMON_APPDATA - can someone please advise on how to do that during the installation process? It's a script-defined folder. Thank you. you can also just easily call Windows commands "CACLS.EXE" or "ICACLS.EXE" -both are easy command line tool, e.g. icacls file /grant Administrator:(D,WDAC) - Will grant the user Administrator Delete and Write DAC permissions to file Under InstallShield 2008 it's Installation Designer > Components > [somecomponent] > Destination Permissions Note that the directory

Background information: We used to have a Visual Studio 2010 based installer project, but our install situation got a lot more complicated, and with the projects going away anyway in 2012, we figured we'd start learning WiX / InstallShield LE . The Problem: InstallShield LE seems far too limited in the MSI files it creates to fit our needs -- (example, if you check the Office 2007 prerequisite, even though the error says you need "Office 2007 or later" it will fail if you have Office 2010 installed instead -- you can check one or the other, but you can't create an OR condition -- there's a lot

I have a few component MSI packages that need to installed together to form the end application. The problem is: the components that make up the package can be updated and the component relaunched on the http file server. What approach should I take? The installer that I am writing is the 'master' installer. Which needs to be able to read what version of each component is installed on their client machine in order to perform an upgrade only on that one component. Also if the application is installed for the first time the installer will download and install all required components. I am using
