Newbie - Opening a file after installation
I have created a basic .msi installer and have also included a customised .hta file that drops with the installer package. I wish to call and display this .hta to the user once the .msi installer has finished installing. I have tried calling it from the "Installation interview" section but it seems as though it cannot call .hta files? :confused: can you confirm how I can call a .hta screen once the installation has finished.
Second prize would be to call a vbs file (also included in the .msi installer) and the vbs file would call the .hta file on the local machine...if possible.
