Install Files from folder

[mark2015]

I built my installer with the intent of installing the application from a folder to be included in the installation package. I am using the compressed single build. Currently the folder and files of my source app is being compressed into the installer. I want to keep the folder in tact along with the installation package. I have not been able to find the directives that are causing the files to be included in the compressed setup, or how to tell it to keep the source folder intact. Even the uncompressed build creates hash folders, which I also do not want. Thank you for the help in advance.

Dear Mark,

I am not quite sure which is your issue.

If you want to install an entire folder exactly as it is on your development system, just use wildcards with the source folder parameter of the Install Files command.

Supposing that your source folder is "F:\My Project",with the Install Files command enter the source folder as "F:\My Project\*.*" to include all files.
In addition, check the "Include subfolders flag if wildcards used" checkbox to perform a recursive operation over any possible sub-folder.

For more details, please consult the available IA documentation about "Install Files" command.

Hope this helps you.

Regards
