Post by: davethomson on April 02, 2015, 02:09:40 AM
See attached graphic that shows that some added files do not have the folder location.

Yes, there is nothing strange about that. It has always been the case when files have not been found in the search. Nothing has changed... Locate the files on your computer and place the path in the search folders list then regenerate the script.

The folder location is shown in InnoScript ADD FILES screen and the proper folder is shown in the "Search Folders".  But still not placed in the script.

The files can not be in the installation (destination) folder BEFORE they exist? You cannot use the destination folder for InnoScript to search, you have to use the DEVELOPMENT folder.
Are you developing in the C:\Pace of Play Programs? That seems to be your destination folder... You will cause confusion...

Since the files in the script are not in red, I can only assume that you have just loaded the script; this is not a image of AFTER the generation of the script...

No, the files with the missing "C:/Pace Of Play Programs" have already been developed and stored in "C:/Pace Of Play Programs" as is evident from the list in ADD FILES.  Are  you saying that if those files exists in the installation folder then they don't need the "C:/Pace Of Play Programs" in the InnoScript output script?  So, if the output folder doesn't exits then the "C:/Pace Of Play Programs" will appear on all the files I have added?

Well, from the graphic enclosed it is evident that even though the folder name is missing in the script, InnoSetup somehow figured out that the installation folder name should be added to those files which don't have the folder name already there.  Case Solved  8)
