Thanks for the reply. That's a great point about modify/repair.

 

Thanks,

Paul

Does anyone have a simple CopyFile example they can share? One of our
MSIs needs to copy a file from its current directory (CD) to the
INSTALLDIR.


That will cause failures if the user doesn't have the CD in the drive
during a modify/repair. A safer way is to use a separate uncompressed
Media element to have "loose files" stored on the root of the CD.
