Virtual Machine not detected

[dmastrop]

Hey folks - I'm trying to create a setup not able to be installed on Virtual Machines. I'm using InstallAware's built-in "disallows setup on VMWare / Virtual PC virtualization" checkbox - works great for Virtual PC, hadn't tested VMWare.

But then I try and install it on Hyper-V virtual machine, and it does so no problem (even though my setup was supposed to disallow virtual machines).

My question is are Virtual PC and VMWare the only two virtual machines this option disallows? Is there a list of what it catches / doesn't out there?

thanks,
~Daniel

Hi,

We do not currently detect Hyper-V, but good request!

Do you have plans to implement this?? Or has it already been implemented? If not, do you know of a way to detect?

Actually not yet.

Honestly I haven't triedit, via WIN API .... using a custom dll or exe it should be possible.
