Re: Digicert Keylocker

Hi, We will monitor the evolution of this support from Digicert and once we have clear specs from them, along with more user requests we will increase the priority for this integration. In the meantime, to avoid the limitations (password prompt/physical flash drive requirement) of EV signing you can...

Hi John, The AIP file you attached is empty, other than a reference to your certificate it does not contain any other configurations, besides our defaults. Can you attach an updated version of your test project? Or zip it all together (binaries included) if it's just for testing purposes. Also, is y...

Re: Azure Devops best practices: Generating release notes automatically?

Thanks Simon, appreciate the feedback. From what I see you are mostly focusing on the automatic generation of the release notes and not the entire update pipeline (i.e. publishing the new package on your server, configuring the updates project with the right detection rules, etc...)

Re: Azure Devops best practices: Generating release notes automatically?

Hi Simon, Bogdan here, I manage product development at Advanced Installer. I was looking over your idea/request and I was curious if our Github integration is something that influenced your idea or not?

Re: How do I determine if an inline powershell script has been blocked or simply failed

Hi, Scripts (PS or VBS) have a history with being blocked either by antiviruses or other group policy management solutions. My recommendation would be to re-write your code into a C# custom action . This way you will end up with a DLL as custom action which should save you from all the headaches of ...
