Hi Christopher, Our Setup application includes Third-Party installations which require admin user and UAC=off. Both the third-party vendors and our application write to system folders. Thus, UAC must be turned off before installation begins. We encountered several cases where UI or silent Setup failed due to UAC no being turned off. Until Win7, enableLUA registry entry was checked. What can be checked in Win8? Does Installshield has such built-in capability? Thanks

So far, I had done this successfully using the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System\EnableLUA key. On WIN8, this key is no longer initialized when setting UAC on/off, therefore no longer usable for UAC detection. I would appreciate your help with this, Thanks, Sharon. We're encountered in the same qustion as well - Please advice. Thanks, Yona

Hi, I've an installation file that contains dozens of components – Only three of them are define as dynamic file linking. The setup is already released to many customers and I can't change/fix it. Now I need to create a patch and each time it failed with the following error: ISDEV : warning Val0015: The CreateFolder table contains new content. Therefore, if you are packaging this upgrade as a patch, you will not be able to make it an uninstallable patch. New ID are generated for the dynamic files linking in each build and therefore I got this error. Does anyone have an idea how to solved this problem? How can I make any work around to create patches "includes" dynamic file linking Please note – I will have to create many patches for this version so one time solution is not good for me Please advice Many Thanks

I compare by mistake the ISM files instead of the MSI files and therefore I did not find the differences – Now, I can see the differences in CreateFolder table. You can see the differences in the attachment - Do you have any idea what can causes these differences? Are these cause/changed due to folder that define as dynamic files? How can I solved it? Thanks

Hi, I have created two msi installers, one I use as a Base MSI and the other I use as an updated MSI, this second MSI includes 3 updated files only. So, from this, I created a patch between the two but I get errors like this: ISDEV : warning Val0015: The CreateFolder table contains new content. Therefore, if you are packaging this upgrade as a patch, you will not be able to make it an uninstallable patch. In the updated MSI I didn't made any change! Just refresh 3 files with more updated files! I compared the two files with "InstallShiled MSI Diff" tool and found NO differences in CreateFolder table content (The Table wasn't marked in Green – Modified) I read paragraph "Val0015" in the InstallShield help and didn't found any solution - I searched the WEB and have not found a solution. is there anyone here who might have just a little clue as to what could be wrong?? Thanks.

Hi, I'm writing new setup using basic MSI 2012. My question is how can I enable/disable Cancel button in dialog. When I click on 'Remove' command in Uninstall dialog, the Remove command execute install Script function that uninstall third parties software. During the uninstall process of the third parties, I would like to disable the Cancel button and when the third party uninstallation terminated then enable the Cancel button. It seems to me, that I need to write code at the beginning of the function which disable the Cancel button and in the end of the function to enable the Cancel button - but i don't know how. Please Advice, Thanks.

The main question remains: If I change the destination folder (after noticed that there is not enough space in the default location ) - How can I run again costfinalize so the Installshield will now look up in the new destination folder?? The logics are working OK: Run the Setup ---> Default ---> Ready to install ----> Not enough diskspace in C:\ ---> Custom Setup ----> change destination dialog ---> ready to install dialog ----> again not enough diskspace in C:\ (although we chose another destination with 20GB free ! (we are checking with a 1kb file! ). Is there something to add to the event when changing the destination folder? Something to tell the installshield to calculate again for the new destination??

The INSTALLDIR has being set as a property and I set it with MsiSetTargetPath – See log file: MSI (c) (14!B8) [19:22:04:745]: PROPERTY CHANGE: Modifying USR property. Its current value is 'C:\TEST\usr\'. Its new value: 'E:\TEST\usr\'. MSI (c) (14!B8) [19:22:04:745]: PROPERTY CHANGE: Modifying DATA property. Its current value is 'C:\TEST\data\'. Its new value: 'E:\TEST\data\'. MSI (c) (14!B8) [19:22:04:745]: PROPERTY CHANGE: Modifying BIN property. Its current value is 'C:\TEST\bin\'. Its new value: 'E:\TEST\bin\'. MSI (c) (14!B8) [19:22:04:745]: PROPERTY CHANGE: Modifying DAT property. Its current value is 'C:\TEST\dat\'. Its new value: 'E:\TEST\dat\'. MSI (c) (14!B8) [19:22:04:760]: PROPERTY CHANGE: Modifying COLOR_ICONS property. Its current value is 'C:\TEST\dat\color_icons\'. Its new value: 'E:\TEST\dat\color_icons\'. MSI (c) (14!B8) [19:22:04:760]: PROPERTY CHANGE: Modifying OLP property. Its current value is 'C:\TEST\dat\olp\'. Its new value: 'E:\TEST\dat\olp\'. But when I click on 'Install' button After the user changed the target path to other drive (Not Default drive) the 'OUT OF DISK SPACE' dialog pop up again. How can I cause the system to recheck the disk space on the new drive and not on the default drive - When I click on Install button cause the setup to check the disk space on the new drive?

An EXE, DLL, InstallScript, or VBScript action could be used depending on how you would like to author the custom action. Note that if your project includes more than 32,767 files through static and dynamic file links, InstallShield should automatically switch the template MSI used at build time to create a release MSI to a template that uses a larger column size for the File.Sequence column; warning -6651 is logged if this situation occurs. Yes, i want to do it by InstallScript as custom action - what is the Install Script command to Compress/Uncompressed ZIP file? My project includes more than 32,767 files through dynamic file links. And the InstallShield doesn't automatically switch the template MSI used at build time to create a release MSI to a template that uses a larger column size for the File. My Compilation failed on Build Error 5023 - certainly i prefer to do it nationality by increase the limit of a database column. As i wrote i tried with no success 😞

Hi I need to make a package which contain more than 32,767 installed files – I can’t reduce the number of files. I tried to increase the limit of a database column as describe in http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa367767.aspx with no success. I would like to zip all the help files to 1 zip file (Online_Help.zip) and to configure my installer to install the entire help library as one giant ZIP file. How can I run a script to expands/uncompressed and deletes the ZIP by install script? Please suggest. Thanks,

Hi, I am creating an install using a Basic MSI 2012 project and I want to provide the user the option to install onto a different drive if the default install directory is OUT OF DISK SPACE. I provide him the custom UI to install onto a different drive (e.g. E:\) - I can see in the log file that INSTALLDIR property was changed: MSI © (58:48) [16:41:11:512]: PROPERTY CHANGE: Modifying INSTALLDIR property. Its current value is 'C:\'. Its new value: 'E:\'. Drive E: have sufficient disk space!! But the user back to OUT OF DISK SPACE dialog - properties OutOfDiskSpace and OutOfNoRbDisk space weren't checks/run again – After the user changed the target path to other drive (Not Default drive). How can I rerun/recheck disk space on new drive (e.g. Drive E:\) and not on the default dirve (e.g. drive C:\) disk space ? Please suggest. Thanks,
