Hi People;
I am using VB6... And have tried Inno Setup 5 for customizing my setup form.
my project contains some *.Wav files.
The Problem is:-
After i finish setup my program... and run for first time, the program and its wav files work very fine.
But; after closing it, and open it again... only its wav files do not work properly. No sound.
Any Help Please;
Marina

So, it's not the INNO - you must be doing something in your own program then...Quote:

i think there is something error in the Path of the wav files.
Got Me?
let me summarize your problem:
- If your exe is run from program files, music is played.
- If exe is run from desktop/program-menu, music is not played.
Some questions:
- Are the wave-files in the same directory (or subdirectory) as your exe?
- Are you using app.path & "\wavfile1.wav" (or something like it) when you play your wave files?
- is it possible you are running a copy of your exe from desktop/program menu, instead of a link to the exe?
If the answer to my three questions = Yes, then add a link to your exe in stead of copying the file to the desktop.
If not, please post your code.
It doesn't seem to be an Inno problem.
I don't think so... :confused: But I'll say it again: it's not the INNO - it's your program.Quote:

In Form_Load
and of course the Cellular.wav exists in the same directory of the main project and the compiled exe as well.vb Code:
After finish installing with Inno, and choose "Launch My Program" the Wav file works in the Form_Load even.
But after closing the program, and re-open again, the wav files no longer work properly, i dont know why...
also, if i did not choose "Lauch my program" and played the program from Start-Menu, the program does not work as well.
I really need some help.

When you run the exe on your own pc, does it have the same problem ?
Also have you tried using a simpler method of playing wav file -

"cellular.wav" is not a valid file path - you need to provide full path+file name.
So, that is your actual problem.
Why is it not a valid path?
When i run the project normally everything work properly... As well as if i install the program using VB Package Wizard, every thing pass very well.
Whatever!! i tried to put the full path of the wav files..But no sound remaining also in the project itself as well.
I am using this API to play my sounds;
vb Code:
I could figure out where the problem locate !But could not solve it.
After Finish Installing the program and create Desktop icon.. I found in the properties of the Icon (Start In:) is empty.
But when i add this line to it (Start In: "C:\Program Files\My Program") the program works very well and all its wav files wherever it was.
But of course, after reinstalling again, the Start In return empty again.
How can i solve this problem?
I haven't seen randem pop in on this question so I'm moving it to his bailwick.
Programs sometimes are not always run in their application folder. It depends on where the shortcut parameter "Start in" is pointing to. If that is the case you did not fully qualify this parameter in the creation of your shortcut and that is where the problem lies.
What did you use to create your Inno Setup Script with?
I know it wasn't **********...
Since you provided no script code I would imagine that you are missing the parameter WorkingDir: {app} in your Icon creation lines.
Show what you have in the [Icons] section
