Editing old setup.exe
All,
My apologies if this is a dumb question. Ive inherited an old setup.exe file that was created with InstallShield, but very little else. We had to move servers and the setup is failing. How can I view what it is trying to do so I can see why its failing?
Thanks
Lon

Hi Lon,
For example, you can launch it with next command line argument:
/v"/l*v c:\my_log.txt"
and analyze the resulting msi log.
