InstallAware

Please,

I would like to know how it is possible to move an entire folder with its subfolders regardless of calling Apply Install, using kernel32.dll->MoveFileExA?

I have been trying but it's not working... What may be happening?

~InstallAware Clipboard Data~
~Call DLL Function~
~{6B1D5310-583B-420F-B94A-039C9FCA648A}~
~kernel32.dll,MoveFileExA,"double word",_MOVERESULT,"pointer to string",$_OLDPATH$,"pointer to string",$_BACKUPPATH$,"double word",1,$~
~mIDEFunc.dll\\mEXEFunc.dll~

Thanks,

Marlon

If this folder is being created during install it will not be available to be moved or copied until after the Apply Install command.

The folder was there before installation process.

I am getting the error 32 - Some file is being used by another program, but I am sure that it's not. I have closed everything. Is there a way to deal with such situations?

If you are not installing or opening any files in the folder then something other than IA is holding a lock on that file or files.
