Leftover Files in Temp folder after install/uninstall
Hi,
After install/uninstall, I noticed there were a lot of leftover files in the Temp folder. Most of them are different folders that contain ISBEWX64 file and one is a copy of the setup.exe, prq and msi. I already tried rebooting the machine and the files were still there.
My settings are MSZIP for compression and Extract from Setup.exe.
Is there a way for Installshield to automatically delete these files?

I think that cause is when the message to reboot the computer pops up (from ScheduleReboot), it restarts right away and doesn't have the time to do the ISSetupFilesCleanup. Is there a fix for this? I tried moving the ScheduleReboot after IsSetupFilesCleanup but that still didn't remove the temp files.
