Thanks Markus. I would not have thought of that, but it makes sense. I will try that when I get time.

msix is relatively new to me and I don't know much about it yet.
But now I have the requirement to modify an existing msix package so that it is not installed to "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\ ...". Instead it should install to "C:\Program files\...".
Is this in general possible with a MSIX modification package ?
regards
Markus

For the InstallShield 2020 Prof./Premier installation the "Merge Module Object" is still part of the installation. Only for the InstallShield 2020 SAB installation you have to explicitly select the "InstallScript Objects Support". To check if the "Merge module object"-holder is available on your pc take a look to the folder: regards Markus

Hi @MarkTucker,
Thank you for your post.
i) You could try manually registering the dll with the 64-bit copy of regsvr32.exe in the C:\Windows\System32 folder instead of the 32-bit copy of regsvr32.exe in the C:\Windows\SysWOW64 folder.
iii) You could try using the free tool, Dependency Walker, to determine the dependencies. More information about Dependency Walker can be found online.
Please give these suggestions a try. Do they work for you?
Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns. Thanks!

Do you see the call to your script function "GetWindowsInstallerProperty" in the msi log file ? regards Markus

Finding the value in Orca pointed me to the fix. I was able to see that my previous patches PackageCode was indeed what InstallShield was erroring about, and the other versions of the code clearly did not have the same GUID. So the only way I could think of it being "non unique" was that the same patch was being included twice. And clicking around in "Media -> Patch Design" and "Patch Design -> PatchConfiguration", I saw that the tree parent of the Previous Setups, was itself pointing to my last Patch. So the last patch was included twice, causing the error about the PackageCode being non unique. Specifically my previous patch was included 2 times: * Once as "Patch Design -> PatchConfiguration -> Latest -> Previous Setups -> PrevFull2" * Once as "Patch Design -> PatchConfiguration -> Latest"

I found something that works. You can set the media type in the release wizard to the Web type. Then set the web type to 'Downloader - Setup.exe downloads .msi package'. On downloader options, you will have to enter something in 'URL for your package' to get the next button enabled to finish the wizard. For InstallShield Prerequisites, you most likely want to choose to 'Extract prerequisites from Setup.exe, unless you have the URL set for all setup prerequisites you are using. Then you could choose to download from the web. Then you will get a setup.exe with the prerequisites embedded in it and an MSI with the CAB/product files streamed into it that you can run without the Setup.exe, assuming the prerequisites are already installed.

We have tried by using msi file of Crystal Report Runtime 13 but it didn't worked for us. Then we tried by using the exe file of the same. It worked but it requires user interaction to install but I want silent installation.

In order to be able to possibly understand this, which merge modules do you have in this merge module holder object ? regards Markus

I have a similar scenario in a suite project. What I did is I have written a small .NET exe console program, which just return with different error codes. In your case, like a vc++ prereq, just return 1641 or 3010 and set the appropriate "Exit Behavior" and "Reboot Request". To control the execution I use the "eligibility conditions" and "detection conditions" regards Markus
