EViews v8 setup.iss

Postby BeverlyJ » Tue Jun 04, 2013 6:56 am

Created response setup.iss file that seems to be working except for turning off the AutoUpdate. Installing using system rights. Seems to be recorded differently in the v7 (which did turn off AutoUpdate). Excerpt from v8 file:
[{1D78E62C-B585-446A-8FC7-2754332C0521}-SdSelectFolder-0]
szFolder=EViews 8
Result=1
[{1D78E62C-B585-446A-8FC7-2754332C0521}-EViews Auto Update-2]
AutoUpdate=2
Result=1

The iss file will either read

[{1D78E62C-B585-446A-8FC7-2754332C0521}-EViews Auto Update-1]
AutoUpdate=2

or

[{1D78E62C-B585-446A-8FC7-2754332C0521}-EViews Auto Update-1]
AutoUpdate=1

EViews 7 used a different installer, so it is possible the iss file will have different results.

The results of the AutoUpdate flag in the iss file will be stored in the C:\Program Files (x86)\EViews 8\AvailableFeatures.ini file. Open this file and verify that AutoUpdate (not to be confused with AutoUpdate in the iss file) is equal to 0. If it is 0, AutoUpdate should be off.
