How to install InstallAware plug-ins

Post by rgrimard »

I'm working on an old installaware 7 project. I have InstallAware 7 installed and my project opens fine. However, when I try to build the project I get an error "This script uses a plug-in that is not available on your system: Windows Installer"

I tried using add/remove programs to add the plugin/feature, but it fails to download it.

I have a folder left behind from the original developer called "InstallAware7_WebBackup" and it contains a list of plugins. One of them being "Windows Installer Plug-In.7zip". I can open this archive (with password) but I don't know what to do with it. I tried just copying the folder into "C:\Program Files (x86)\InstallAware\InstallAware 7\Plug-Ins" but that didn't help.

Thoughts?

Thanks
Ryan

Dear Ryan,

InstallAware plugins can be download from the Plug-In Development forum (http://www.installaware.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=3)
What does the archive you have contain?
