MSI Package

[spruha96]

Hello! 

I have to create a MSI package. One of our files we are trying to package, the name of it is too long. 

These lengths are simply too long to process.  The only solution I can provide is to store the package in a .ZIP file and as part of your install, decompress and then install.

This is why we were told to create a .MSI package. Can someone help me do this?

Repackager can be used to package legacy installers. Please go through below link for more details:

How long are the filenames. There are limitations based on the target drive format. Maybe you can paste the filenames here?
