Hi, We are using Install shield LE with VS2013 to create Setup packages for windows application. Is there any option to enable multiple language selection in Set up language option in installer. Currently package can be created only in one language at a time.

Hi Jennifer, Thank you for your update As i understand from the below comment, the MD5 key has dependency with source path. But i doubt the same since the source path change is also there in previous installer, but set up size change is minimal. Could you please confirm if the MD5 key generation is dependent on file size, because we see such change only when file size/contents change. The component ID remains the same.

Could you please let us know the general procedure for calculating set up size based on files added in install shield for an install shield (install script) project. We would generally like to know on what basis the MD5 key is generated for a component in report file. Is it based on file size/contents etc.

Hi, On analyzing the report file generated during build, we observed that each component has a 'size in library' variable getting added to the setup .exe. In the issue occurred scenario, value was present for 'size in library' attribute for the files replaced when compared with the previous build file. In the previous build file 'size in library' attribute was absent for the added files. So we guess that it is something related to this attribute. Also against each component a MD5 hash is generated. For the components which have same hash value size in library' attribute is not getting added in build. Has anybody seen such an issue and how is the MD5 value generated for each file. Is it generated based on file attributes such as size, date etc?

Hi Jennifer, Regarding the MSIdiff, there is no much difference. How is the set up file size calculated based on data in application folder?

Hi, We have an Installshield 2011 project maintained for 8 years. We use it to create packages for our application. Recently we observed an increase in file size of set up file from 209MB to 250MB after buidling the project. Below is the issue description: The Application data->Files and Folder section contains the below folder structure Conf->Model1->Service Manual->File1, File2, File3, File4, File5 - Total size 18.6 MB ->Model2->Service Manual->File1, File2, File3, File4, File5 - Total size 18.6 MB As part of the change, File 1,2,3,4,5 was replaced in source folder. There was a size change of around 0.3 MB for each service manual folder. We did not expect much size change in the out put file size after build. But on observing the output we see there is an increase of around 40MB for the output file. Could you please help us out on the change in file size. We have not done any other changes in installshield project. Only file replace was done. We need to know how did the set up size increase by 40 MB even with a small file change.
