Forgive me for what seems to be a stupid question, but I have searched both here and other places, and can't seem to find it.
I have a basic MSI project that installs files and then calls some InstallScripts, which accesses some files I have placed in the "Support Files" section. Now when I go to build the release, I want to build a single file that I can distribute, including the support files. Right now I can only get the "setup.exe" file to include the files in my Program Files\Product Name folder, and then it also puts the files in the Support Files folder in my distribution directory, as separate files. How can I have it create ONE file that includes everything, including support files?
Thanks so much in advance - this is driving me crazy...
If you have the files that you included in the Support Files view added to the "Disk1" location, it will exclude those files from your single exe and place them in your distribution folder (Disk1) as you are seeing . You would need to add those files instead to the "Language Independent" or "English" (if you are using a language other than English, that will be listed here). Those files will then be compressed into your single exe.
Hope that helps.

Just so that you understand the difference between them, you should familiarize yourself with the different Support Files location uses. I have posted a couple of our HelpNet links below:
