IS 2020 R3 Professional.  On the  InstallWelcome dialog, the image is welcome.jpg.  It is all one image, there is no left side image that can be replaced.  How to change this? I know that sometime in the past (some years past), I have done something like this, I cannot remember if it was WIX, or the IS Premier version.  Does the Premier version work differently (and thus we would need to upgrade), in that this can be done?  Or, in Professional does the entire .jpg file need to be replaced? ...

IS 2020 - MSI - Creating first Minor Upgrade.  InstallShield documentation, ...Create a Minor Upgrade - Community (flexera.com) Says to create a new product configuration, and then a new release.  If you want the setup.exe file to be named differently for a release, then possibly that would be a reason, but except for that, why do this instead of just using the same configuration\release that you have been using? ...

IS 2021 R3 I did not write this install.  Currently when the user selects the "finish' button on the SuccessfullyCompleted dialog, it kicks off a number of 'New EXE', installed with product, exe's.  It works fine.  The only thing is that when the user clicks on the 'finish' button, you would normally expect the install to be completed.  In this case the exe's that are kicked off, they open cmd windows, so you can definitely see that the install is not finished. I removed those custom actions from the dialog, and placed then in the Execute sequence, just before the 'InstallFinalize'.  Now for whatever reason, the Installdir is not created, so the custom actions do not find the exe's to execute, and the install fails. Now sure how this could be happening (I am not new at this). ... View more

When the custom action executes, cmd windows appear.  Is there a way to suppress these cmd windows with an addition option on the command line, or, do I need to select a different type of custom action to execute these exe's? ...

IS 2021 MSI. We have a x64 installer.  We want to do a minor upgrade.  When creating the release,  do we have to create a 64-bit setup launcher or can we say 'NO' to that?  Problem is that the custom actions are written in Installscript, and you get an error when trying to create the release if you say 'Yes' to the 64-bit option. On this page...Building 64-Bit Setup Launcher (revenera.com)  -  look for " ISDEV: fatal error -7371: InstallScript custom actions are not supported with 64-Bit Setup Launcher.".   I am reading this as "if install is x64, then for a minor upgrade, you must choose 'yes', to the 64 bit launcher option, and thus...I need to rewrite the custom actions in anything but InstallScript. ...
