How to automatically copy files with installation?
Description of the solution:
It is possible to automatically copy system files, addons and preferences together with the installation. To do this there needs to be one additional folder “Extended” together with the installer with the following structure:
Dewesoft_X3_Installer_x86.exe
Extended
Bin
DEWESofttX.exe
Addons
addon1.dll
System
Project.dxp
Setups
Setup.dxs
exe
3rd_party_software_installer.exe
Extended folder can contain following subfolders – Bin, System, Setups and exe. Bin folder will copy all files to the Bin folder of the installation. If Addons would like to be copied then an additional subfolder Addons needs to be created. The same is valid also for System and Setups folders. Exe folder can contain other executables which would like to be run after DEWESoft installer finishes (for installing other software or drivers). All files and folders above are optional. If only addons need to be copied then System and exe folders are not needed.
If you're installing the 64-bit version of Dewesoft make sure that the folder names are Bin64 and Addons64.
