Always recommend path variables |
Advanced UI, Basic MSI, DIM, InstallScript, InstallScript MSI, Merge Module, QuickPatch, Suite/Advanced UI |
Select this option if you want InstallShield to automatically assign existing path variables to your files. For example, if you are adding a file to your installation project that is stored in your Program Files folder, InstallShield uses <ProgramFilesFolder> rather than a hard-coded path. Select the check box below this option to have InstallShield automatically create a path variable for you. When a new variable is created, it is titled <MYVAR#> (where # is a successive number). You can change the name of this variable in the Path Variables editor. |
|
Don’t recommend path variables |
Advanced UI, Basic MSI, DIM, InstallScript, InstallScript MSI, Merge Module, QuickPatch, Suite/Advanced UI |
Select this option if you want to use hard-coded paths for all of your file links. InstallShield does not suggest path variables for you if this option is selected. |
|
Always display the Path Variable Recommendation dialog to me |
Advanced UI, Basic MSI, DIM, InstallScript, InstallScript MSI, Merge Module, QuickPatch, Suite/Advanced UI |
Select this option if you want the Path Variable Recommendation dialog box to be displayed every time you associate a file with your installation project. |
