Hi,

It's not from your post which project type you have, but if it is an InstallScript project you could check the MAINTENANCE variable.

Something like

if (!MAINTENANCE) then
//create textfile
endif;

If you have an InstallScript custom action, you could put a condition on it to have it only run on first time installs. E.g "Not Installed"
