Hi, Create a new FEATURE and map the files that you want to prevent from installation. Use installscript FeatureSelectItem function to select and deselect the feature. // Set the selection status of NewFeature to not selected. (It won't deploy your files) E.g FeatureSelectItem (MEDIA, "NewFeature", FALSE); Thanks, Thananjeyan

Still it fails under this specific use case, can anyone explain why? 1. Display the SdAskDestPath dialog box which prompts for the directory path. 2. When the dialog box displays enter a directory name that does not exists. Example: C:\\TestDoesNotExists or C:\TestDoesNotExists 3. When the dialog box closes the code below always indicates that the directory exists. if( ExistsDir (pathEntered) = EXISTS) then targetExists= TRUE; // Always executed for steps 1 thru 3 above. endif;

Is there any documentation on the return codes which are returned for LAAW.PARAMETERS.nLaunchResult? I am calling LaunchAppAndWait to shell into dos and launch a command script. If succesfull .nLaunchResult returns Zero, but if not zero then it means failure. I would like to somehow determine based upon the code returned what the specific error means. For example Inoticed that the value " -1073741510" is returned if my process fails. I would like to give the person running the installation more specifics around why the command failed so it would be nice to determine what the specific nLaunchResult value means.

I have an InstallScript project. I created a skinnable dialog box. On the dialog there is a default image on the left side of the dialog box adjacent to a white vertical line. The image appears to be of a computer and computer peripherals. In the designer I deleted the image, yet when the dialog box displays the white vertical line on the left side of the dialog box is still displaying. How can I totally get rid of the default image and vertical line? Attached is an image of a dialog box which I think will give you an idea of what I am talking about.

Never mind Jennifer. I will just plan on creating the skinnable dialog types rather than trying to convert them.

Hi @ralphster, You can delete the release from the "Releases" view. 1- Go to the "Releases" view 2- Select the release which you want to delete. 3- Press "Del" button or "Delete" option from the right click context menu.

Thank you Jennifer. I want to keep the branding, so that I follow the licencing agreement. I just want to figure out how to align it properly. Thank you.

I have many "Script Based Dialog" boxes which I created in my "InstallScript" project. Since those dialog boxes are script based can they be skinned using skins provided by InstallShield? The answer appears to be NO, because if I create a new dialog box my options are as follows and it appears that Blank and Script Based Dialog boxes are not skinnable? From the Dialog Wizard: Choose a dialog template from the list below, or brows to a dialog (.isd) file. Blank Dialog Script Based Dialog Skinnable Dialog

Hi Banna, The orginal project I created in 2016 was an "InstallScript" project. When I converted it to InstallShield 2019 it looks like it is still an "InstallScript" project. (Is there anyway to validate this?)

Varaprasad · ‎Sep 23, 2019

You can as well try Is command https://community.flexera.com/t5/InstallShield-Knowledge-Base/Detecting-When-a-Reboot-Is-Necessary/ta-p/3933 if (Is(FILE_EXISTS, WINDIR ^ "Wininit.ini") = TRUE) then ....

Dialog and its controls need to be initialized before font is set. Can you try CtrlSetFont after EzDefineDialog call during dialog initialization (DLG_INIT event) as shown in the below sample. https://helpnet.flexerasoftware.com/installshield25helplib/Subsystems/LangRef/helplibrary/LangrefCtrlSetFont_example.htm#langref_appendixa_2230407831_1026994 case DLG_INIT: hwndDlg = CmdGetHwndDlg(szDialogName); SdGeneralInit(szDialogName, hwndDlg, 0, ""); CtrlSetFont (szDialogName, hFont1, 1566);

HI @ralphster , InstallShield2019PremierComp.exe is the main setup of InstallShield 2019 premier edition ,while "InstallShieldSkinCustomizationKit.exe", "InstallShieldInstallScriptObjects.exe" are all additional setups which you can use for additional purposes.Each serves its own purpose For an example you can use InstallShieldSkinCustomizationKit to create custom skins which you can use with main product.InstallShield2019PremierComp.exe won't install additional setups,on need basis you can install other setups. Thanks, Jenifer
