Select the Windows Installer version to be installed by Update.exe. The Version 3.1 or
2.0 (best fit for system) option installs Windows Installer 3.1 on target systems that are
running Windows 2000 SP3 or later; it installs Windows Installer 2.0 on other target
systems.
If you select the Version 3.1 (requires Windows 2000 SP3 or greater) option or the
Version 3.0 (requires Windows 2000 SP3 or greater) option, and the target system
does not support version 3.x but does have version 2.0 installed, your patch will run,
since the differences between versions 2.0 and 3.x involve only the mechanics of
patching.
Engine Location Select one of the following options:
Windows Installer 2.0
engine URL
Windows Installer 3.1

Property Description
• Download Engine From The Web—If the Windows Installer engine needs to be
installed, it is downloaded at run time.
• Extract Engine From Update.exe—The build streams the Windows Installer
engine into the Update.exe file, giving you a single file to distribute to your
customers. At run time, the engine is extracted from the Update.exe file and
installed if required.
• Copy From Source Media—The build copies the Windows Installer engine into
the same directory as the Update.exe file.
Specify the uniform resource locator (URL) for the location of the engine. This is the
location that the Update.exe file uses at run time to download the engine. The default
URL location is a live site maintained by Flexera Software for your convenience.
