Hello Jan,

The LocalAppData can indeed be a good second option.

Fairly speaking ...

Hello Jan,

The fact that Windows features sometime take longer to install compared to simple prerequisites is normal.

However, it is not normal for the setup to hang.

For instance, if you check event viewer, do you see any errors there?

Also, on the machine, is there any AntiVirus product ...

Hello,

The first error is an error related to your application.

The second one is an installation error indeed, and this is the description from Microsoft:

Code: Select all

The dialog [2] has the error style bit set, but is not an error dialog.

Hello and welcome to our forums,

This is quite a strange behavior and I do not think the issue is related to the stopping of the service.

If possible, could you please forward me the following resources:

- a copy of the AIP file

- a download link for V1 of the product

- a test-case (step by ...

Hello and welcome to our forums,

First of all, please accept my apologies for the quite delayed reply on this.

And thank you for the provided resources!

From what I can see in the error message, it says about "on Web Site "Default web site"" while in your second screenshot, you show for the ...

Hello,

Could you please give me some more details about what error you are getting while doing the update?

I think that most likely the error is related to the after install check that is done by the updater, so if the error is something like "the update was not installed correctly" (despite it ...

Hello and welcome to our forums,

What you want to achieve here can be done through a custom approach.

After downloading the setup, you can run a custom action that launches that setup using your parameters.

For this, you can use a "Launch File" predefined custom action.

However, this action must ...

Hello Nathan,

The main problem here is the fact that if the first version was installed per-machine and the user then tries to upgrade that using a per-user, that doesn't quite work. In both cases, admin rights will be required here for the normal user trying to update a per-machine installation ...

Hello Nick,

I'm afraid that we do not have automation support for that specific request.

However, i will add this on our TODO list of improvements and it should be added in a future version of Advanced Installer.

Until that, you can check the checkbox manually and input the uninstall command line ...

Hello René,

You are indeed right, something is not quite right here.

I've run the test once again and I'm also able to reproduce this - I think I didn't even go past the "First line" messagebox last time I tested and that's why I did not see this error.
