Shortcut icon does not appear for the CHM file

Post by Doron »

Hi,

From some reason the shortcut for the CHM file does not appears when installation is complete. The other 2 shortcuts for the Uninstall and the Install are OK.

Here is the code:
Create Shortcut $SHORTCUTFOLDER$\\FCG Help to $TARGETDIR$\\FCG_Help.chm

Looking into that file and it is found under the Runtime folder InstallAware created. Is it a runtime file???

Please advise.

Thanks,

Doron

Hi Doron,

Try removing the current shortcut, save and build, then add the shortcut again.

Hope that works for you!

Does the target computer have the CHM viewer installed?
The icon would be picked automatically by the system, unless the target computer does not have CHM support. Try to find out which application (and icon) CHM files are associated with on the target PC.
