Everything referenced in the Inno script is compressed into the setup exe.
It is compressed into the exe if you tell it to do it (add it in the script).
Also, you should have posted this in the Application Deployment forum.
It is still a good idea to put everything your program needs in a folder on the CD just in case people have problems.Quote:

The autorun as been discussed a day ago. Look in the Deployment forum or search for 'Autorun.ini'
I know how to create autorun.inf
[autorun] = Setup.exe
[icon] = ...
Gensor,
No, you do not need to add all the extra files to the CD. They are included in the setup.exe file
Thank you randem!
