Description

File

Type the path and name of the file. To find the file by browsing, click the ellipsis (...) button.

URL to file

If end users should be able to download the file from the Web, specify the uniform resource locator (URL) in this box. This URL is the same one that InstallShield uses when installation authors use the Redistributables view to download an InstallShield prerequisite from the Internet to their local machines.

For example, if the URL for the file is http://www.mywebsite.com/Folder1/Notepad.exe, enter the following in this box: http://www.mywebsite.com/Folder1
