I found the problem with my D2007 Help install - the DVD I was installing from failed to read one large help file - I watched it retry for about 5 minutes and then give up and continue with no error message. I was a little bemused the installer could miss some files without giving any warning. The installer I wrote for (non-Delphi software) always had a packing list as part of it - if any of the files were not not found at the destination end the installer would abort. Is checking for all files a feature or not in most Windows installers? - eg Inno Setup (which I use). For Inno Setup I presume there the fact everything is in one file more or less means all have to arrive at the destination, otherwise the installer will not run....
