InstallAware

Hi,
Is there a way to set a file attribute to Read-only when using Installaware script and Native engine only. I have tried to use the check box in install file for read only and that doesn't work.
I tried to change the native engine to false and use apply install. This would work, BUT it will create a Entry for add remove program. We don't want to have that, since this installer is just dropping some files for a previous installed application so we don't need extra entry for Add/Remove program.
Can you please advise if there is any other way, apart from using cmd?
Thank you in advance.

Dear Aziaaddini,

many thanks for reporting this. Unfortunately, for now I can only confirm the issue ... by the way, this seems to be a "reappearing" problem.

Currently as "workaround", I can suggest you to follow the approach described with the following link.

Thank you, Will try that, is there an ETA for that by any chance? Thanks again

Dear Aziaaddini,

we just made available a new IA X6 update (v.23.07) which should fix this issue.

Hope this helps you.

Thank you for the info. We have a licensed version but I dont see any option to update the installaware. Can you please advise how to update our version. Im sure im missing it somewhere, but I cant find it. Thank you

Dear Aziaaddini,

you only need to install the latest IA X6 version (v.23.07 - it requires a new re-generated personal license to activate the product).
However, you need to have a valid IA X6 license.

Hope this helps you.

Regards
