installshield

Is it possible to programmatically set the "Run As Administrator" flag on exe file or shortcut file? Does Installshield support this functionality if i'll do it as part of the installation process? I'm trying to find the relevant command line / API / installshield command for this. The upstream build process should be manifesting your EXE with the require administrator attribute. This doesn't have anything to do with InstallShield or the shortcut. Done correctly when the user clicks the shortcut, Windows will see the manifest and UAC will prompt for elevation. 来源： https://stackoverflow.com

How can I stop installshield from registering fonts? I've got a number of installshield projects deploying web applications, which all feature GlyphIcons and FontAwesome fonts. Installshield automatically registers these files (*.ttf, *.eot, *.otf) with the operating system. This is a problem because the file can't be removed for uninstalls or upgrades. The instructions here or here don't work since those fields simply don't exist in my version of installshield/project type. Is there another way to disable this behaviour without renaming the files? I found a suggestion on the Installshield

I have created bat file for automatic build. It's create installer of my product. But problem is that before run automatic build script I have to change product code manually from install shield. So, is there any way to change product code automatically ? because everything is automatic except product code. As Phil says you can do this via the COM automation interface for Installshield , but there are also other ways as explained here: Installshield Build Automation . Essentially : The link above shows a small sample of how to use the standalone build executable ISCmdBld.exe - which you might

We've decided to create a custom bootstrapper for our deployment solution. We are currently re-writing and re-designing our deployment strategy for all of our products. Sadly, none of us are deployment experts. Here's what we have so far: A. The MSI packages will be authored in InstallShield. We will use whatever feature Installshield offers (IIS integration, COM registration, Registry, etc). The dialog's created by InstallShield will not be used (that is what the bootstrapper is for). The MSIs will be installed silently. B. Whenever we need to write CA's for stuff that InstallShield can't

Our company has switched from using InstallShield Express to using Inno Setup (5.5.2 version). We've got years of old installs utilizing InstallShield, but have always relied on InstallShield's Upgrade Code GUID to handle the uninstall of the previous version. I need to be able to uninstall any previous InstallShield installed version from our new Inno Setup installer. After some research it looks like I need to call MsiEnumRelatedProducts() and then uninstall any found products.

I'm using InstallShield 2013 to make a Basic MSI installer for an application that requires Windows Platform Update KB2670838 . For .NET frameworks and other requirements, I select them in InstallShield in the Redistributables section. KB2670838 is not available. If I download KB2670838 from Microsoft I get a .msu file. Can that be included in the installer somehow so that it automatically installs if needed? If not, is there a way to stop the install and tell the user that "KB2670838 is required but not installed. Get it here..."? @Glytzhkof Good point. So how do I get InstallShield to abort
