Hi @Lmanthen ,

Installshield 2015 isn't compatible with Visual Studio 2017,VS2017 support starts from Installshield 2018.

Thanks,

I selected 2019 as the Product Version then clicked InstallShield 2019 Release Notes to jump to the InstallShield 2019 Release Notes available at this link:

https://docs.revenera.com/installshield25helplib/rn/ReleaseNotes.htm#sysreq

I clicked the System Requirements link at the top of the web page.

I found these Visual Studio versions listed, meaning that InstallShield 2019 supports these specific Visual Studio versions:
