Using Package and Deployment Wizard - More things you can do

Many people use Package and Deployment Wizard to create an installer to install their applications. I have recently used it to create an installer for my web browser and i wanted to add folders to the installer. So, i will show you how to put files to folders using the setup.lst file and how to update the files inside the cab files.

1.Add folders to the installer

Open the Setup.LST located in Support folder(using notepad or whatever text editor you want)
Go to Setup1 section
You will find something like this:
[email protected],$(AppPath),,,8/20/10 9:53:42 PM,185,0.0.0.0

and more files
to add this file to a folder replace this line with the following:
[email protected],$(AppPath)\foldername,,,8/20/10 9:53:42 PM,185,0.0.0.0

Now run the bat file named with your app name in support folder and your setup will be ready :check:

the installer will install example.exe in the folder named "foldername"

2.All the files located to the support folder can create the cab files. So, the only thing you can do is Edit or Replace the files in the support folder and then run the .bat file to recreate the installer :check:

I hope i helped you,
