I create the installer for my application with Wise Installation Express 7.0. In my installation there is a file that holds user names and passwords. It needs to be installed/uninstalled when the application is installed or uninstalled. When the application is upgraded, though, that file needs to NOT be overwritten. How can I do that with Wise? Thanks.

Hope you solved this in a timely manner, but for others' sake:

In the Setup Editor tab, define a Component that represents your file, specifying its directory and its file name in the KeyPath.

Right-click to specify Details, and check the Leave Installed on Uninstall checkbox.

  • Thanks. When I build my next release, I'll try this. – A.J. Oct 15 '12 at 17:41
  • I followed your suggestions and the password file is now left behind when my application is uninstalled. That should suit my needs just fine. Thanks. – A.J. Mar 18 '13 at 20:46
