Prepare for Release View
This setting specifies the location from which the setup launcher downloads
the Windows Installer 3.1 or 3.0 engine, if needed. This property is ignored
unless the MSI Engine Location setting for the current release is set to
Download Engine from the Web. Do not specify the file name in the URL.
Note: The default URL (http://www.installengine.com/Msiengine30) is a site
maintained by Flexera Software for your convenience. Both the 3.1 and 3.0
engines are available for download from this location. The appropriate
version—either 3.1 or 3.0—is downloaded if needed, depending on what
option is selected for the MSI Engine Version setting for the current release.
Note: This setting applies to redistributables for Windows Installer 3.1 and
earlier. For information on different methods of adding various versions of
Windows Installer redistributables to a project, see Adding Windows Installer
Redistributables to Projects.
Select the version of the Windows Installer engine that you want to include
with your application. You must select the Yes option in the Setup Launcher
setting to enable installing the Windows Installer engines with your package.
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.
Note: This setting applies to redistributables for Windows Installer 3.1 and
earlier. For information on different methods of adding various versions of
Windows Installer redistributables to a project, see Adding Windows Installer
Redistributables to Projects.
Specify whether you want to postpone any reboot associated with installing
or updating the Windows Installer engine on the target system until after your
installation has completed.
Select Yes to postpone the reboot, if one is necessary. Select No to allow the
system to reboot, if necessary, immediately after the Windows Installer
engine has been installed or updated and before performing your installation.
This option requires Windows Installer 2.0, 3.0, or 3.1.
