InstallShield 2016 Express Edition
The file removal Properties dialog box indicates information about a selected file or folder that you want to be removed from target systems. This file and folder removal capability is useful for scenarios such as removing application-created files that your installation does not otherwise track.
To access the file removal Properties dialog box:
| 1. | In the View List under Specify Application Data, click Files. |
| 2. | In the Destination computer’s folders pane, click the folder that contains the file removal item that you want to configure. |
| 3. | In the Designation computer’s files pane, right-click the file removal item that you want to configure, and then click Properties. |
InstallShield uses an icon that has a red X through it for identifying files and folders that are configured to be removed.
To learn how to add file and folder removal items to your project, see Removing Files and Folders from Target Systems.
