One-Click Install Installations in InstallScript Projects
InstallShield 2020
Project:This information applies to InstallScript projects.
A One-Click Install installation includes a setup player (Setup.ocx) that downloads and then launches the Setup.exe file with the appropriate command line. This enables end users who are using Windows Vista and later with limited privileges to run the installation; if elevated privileges are required because of the required execution level specified in the installation’s manifest, the appropriate User Account Control (UAC) prompt is displayed when the Setup.exe file is launched. If end users have an earlier version of Windows on their systems, the manifest is ignored, but the other behavior is the same.
The Setup.exe file for One-Click Install installations does not include any COM information.
Like any other installation, an Internet installation can use features such as updating, maintenance mode, multi-instance installation, silent installation—in short, any feature that is available for any InstallShield installation.
