InstallAware

Version InstallAware Express X13

I've created a baseline project which I need to duplicate to create multiple slightly different installers. I created my baseline project and did a Save As into a different folder and as a different name. I then moved my baseline project to a new location and when I try and open the new project it fails because there's a link back to the original baseline project.

I had a look at the .mpr file for the new project and the first line points to the original baseline project folder and the .mia file.

How can I resolve this? Can I simply copy the referenced .mia file to the new project, rename it and edit the .mpr file to reflect this new file?

Also, what's the best way to duplicate an existing project if Save As is not the correct procedure?

Thanks

If you are on IA X13, you can use the "Clone Project" wizard.

Clone Project.
This wizard clones the active project into a fully independent new setup, with all dependent Include Scripts copied as local references found inside the new project folder."

This option is available from the "Wizard" tab of the "New Project Dialog".
