Search Results and Recommendations Panel

InstallShield 2026 » Convert Source Paths Wizard

The Search Results and Recommendations panel lists all the path variable options for the files and links in your project that are not located in directories that already have path variables. For example, if your file is C:\App Files\Executable\App.exe, you are given the option of creating a path variable called Executable that equates to that path.
