I don't think that this is possible. The standard icon for a MSI package is defined in the registry and is applicable to all MSI packages by the OS. You can change the default icon for MSI packages in the system registry with file type associations, but all files with .MSI extension will get same icon on that machine. As a work around, you can try using 'SingleImage' compressed build option in your express project (which streams msi into setup.exe) and then you can change the icon for your setup.exe file. ...

Looks like some problem while contacting license server to reactivate your product. You can try below offline return and activate process: 1. Open a command prompt in admin mode and cd to 'C:\Program Files (x86)\InstallShield\2014\System' 2. Type 'TSconfig /return /no_internet' and push enter - A window should appear which has a request code to deactivate the licence. 3. Save this request code and visit the Offline Activation Web page (http://www.installshield.com/offlineactivation). Follow the instructions to browse to the .request file that you saved. When you click the button on the Offline Activation Web page to submit the activation request and obtain the activation response file (.xml), Save it and make it available on the machine on which you initiated the activation process. 4. Re-open the InstallShield software when you have the above activation response file (.xml), and Proceed to the Offline Return dialog, which has a Response text box. Click the Load button and select activation xml file. Repeat above steps for the activate command as mentioned below TSconfig /activate /no_internet You can contact Flexera Support if above steps are not working for you. https://community.flexera.com/t5/Support-Information/Support-Contacts/ta-p/94720 Or contact via mail, support@flexerasoftware.com ...

From the log, looks like you have enabled 'IIS-WebServerRole' (Internet Information Services) feature. 8-27-2019[11:20:54 AM]: Getting feature list for initial feature items 'IIS-WebServerRole' 8-27-2019[11:20:54 AM]: Getting feature items for OS version 1000 (Server) 8-27-2019[11:20:54 AM]: Final feature list for current item is: NetFx3ServerFeatures;NetFx3;IIS-WebServerRole;IIS-WebServer;IIS-WebServerManagementTools;IIS-ManagementConsole;IIS-CommonHttpFeatures;IIS-DefaultDocument;IIS-DirectoryBrowsing;IIS-HttpErrors;IIS-StaticContent;IIS-HealthAndDiagnostics;IIS-HttpLogging;IIS-RequestMonitor;IIS-Performance;IIS-HttpCompressionStatic;IIS-Security;IIS-RequestFiltering;IIS-ApplicationDevelopment;IIS-ISAPIExtensions;IIS-ISAPIFilter;NetFx4Extended-ASPNET45;IIS-NetFxExtensibility;IIS-ASPNET This feature has dependency on NetFx3. You can open your project (.issuite) file and refer below nodes. <WindowsFeaturesDefinitions>       <IIS-WebServerRole>      <DependsOn>NetFx3</DependsOn>      .....     </IIS-WebServerRole> </WindowsFeaturesDefinitions> I am not sure you still need .Net 3.5 dependency on IIS feature on other operating systems and I have not tried if you can remove this dependency from your suite project. You can refer below link for more information https://helpnet.flexerasoftware.com/installshield25helplib/helplibrary/SteWindowsFeat.htm Some more information below if it helps for this issue: If you still need .net 3.5 for other OS, you can add .net 3.5 pre-requisite as a package to your project and this gets added as dependency package. You can control exit behavior (on failures) of this package by simply  ignoring and choosing setup to continue. https://helpnet.flexerasoftware.com/installshield22helplib/helplibrary/SteImportPRQ.htm#creatingsuites_3383918860_1045030 ...

Did you specify a condition for this event? Click the ellipsis button (...) in this setting. The Condition Builder dialog box opens, which enables you to specify the conditions that must be met for the action. For now, you can specify a condition  as 1 (shown in the image), so that the action is performed under all conditions. ... View more

"Preparing to Install" dialog is being displayed by the bootstrap launcher and, thus, it does not appear in the project in the InstallShield Dialog Editor. And there are no InstallScript or MSI settings backing up this dialog. Perhaps using the 'Small Initialization Dialog' (Media-->Releases-->Product Configuration -->Release--> under Setup.exe Tab ---> Small Initialization Dialog to Yes) would be an alternative for you. ...

Select bitmap control (Name : ControlId_551) on a dialog and browse for new image file name as shown below. You need to repeat for all other dialogs (such as SdWelcome, SdFinish, and SdFinishReboot). After changing the sidebar image and rebuilding the project, the dialogs will be displayed with the custom image.  You can as well try changing the direct image in the InstallShield distribution.  but still it will be necessary to right-click each exterior dialog box in the Dialogs view and select Edit to consider modified changes.  ...

  Parameter SRCDIR^"C:\\MySourceDir\\OrangeBanner.bmp" is wrong. You are trying to append SRCDIR with another full path.                DialogSetInfo(DLG_INFO_ALTIMAGE,SRCDIR^"C:\\MySourceDir\\OrangeBanner.bmp"); You should be able to change the image as below. Make sure image is added to support files:                      DialogSetInfo(DLG_INFO_ALTIMAGE, SUPPORTDIR ^ "OrangeBanner.bmp", TRUE);  For more information, refer below example: https://helpnet.flexerasoftware.com/installshield21helplib/Subsystems/installshield21langref/helplibrary/LangrefDialogSetInfo_example.htm#langref_appendixa_3241381926_1028486 ...
