System Cannot Find The Path Specified

Second issue,

I am debugging my build, and the minute it gets to Install Files "FooBar\SpamEggs\autorun.inf" to $TARGETDIR$\drivers

it shoots this error:

"The system cannot find the path specified

$TARGETDIR$\drivers\autorun.inf

Would you like to try again?"

Any idea on why this would be happening?

Thanks,

Logan

Does this happen during build or install?

During Debug

Does it not happen if you run it rather than debug it?

It runs fine, but this error is making me believe that it is not pulling the files out of the recursive directories in which I specified.

That is correct - these commands do not run in Debug mode.

Okay, Great. Thanks for the information. So I would have to actually run the installer on a clean machine and test the results otherwise?

Exactly - I recommend using virtual machines for that as well.
