Advanced installer is able to add files or folders in Resources/ Files and Folders. On project build, the build process checks if all files exist and fails if any of files are missing. Can I configure a project to do not fail to build if some specific file is missing? For example, if the file exists...
Thank you very much for the clarification! I've got a question from the maintainability perspective: If I understood correctly there are two projects created from one template in your proposed option. Does it mean that in case of a new custom action, I will need to create a custom action in one proj...

Best regards, Catalin I'm sorry, probably, I wasn't clear enough. At the moment Advanced Installer analytics ...
In case 1, we can do as you said in your point 1. However, for the second case, there's nothing we can really do. And most of the times, in an corporate environment, we are talking about the 2nd case. Just to double check, are you saying that if the Execution Policy is set using GroupPolicy (Machin...
Hello, The script doesn't have any try/catch block and do not return any exit values. This is something you should add to your script if you need it. The script either returns success or error, these are the only options for the Windows Installer service that interprets them. Best regards, Catalin ...
An installer has several "Run PowerShell Inline Script" custom actions. We have found that some users face installation issues because of PowerShell ExecutionPolicy settings. How can this case be handled? 1). Probably we could have an additional custom action that would change ExecutionPolicy to Rem...
Thank you for the reply. I mean a case when there is a ARM based PC computer with Windows 10/11 OS and we would like to create a .NET application for the computer. Could I use Advanced Installer to create an installation file that would contain an ARM build application and would be able to execute o...
