Permissions and security issues

I am having the same issues with security and permissions, just like in this post:

http://www.installaware.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=320

On XP, I still have to manually set permissions for the app to run/uninstall. On vista, it's much worse. Files I didn't specifically set permissions for have NO permissions set.

My code and how I have it setup is below.

I can't figure this out enough to have a reliable setup on XP or vista. I have licensed Installaware 7.0

Thanks in advance for your help.

Rick

Is anyone else having this problem? I'm at a deadline to release my product, but I can't seem to build a setup properly because of this issue.

Hi Rick,

I've had the EXACT same issue, look at
http://www.installaware.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2920
I've also found that the folder share permissions do not get set on Vista (and not just 64 bit also 32 bit Vista) while on other OS's it works fine, although the security on the actual file system objects do get set correctly on all systems.
