I am getting a warning when trying to include the .net 3.5 sp1 prerequisite for my setup project. The warning states Prerequisite could not found for bootstrapping.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
I followed the directions in 2.3.1.1 Enable Samesite for the .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 bootstrapper package and now everything works perfect.
Thanks
Ultimately, having had the same issue as the creator Ryan, I solved my delima by folling these steps:
Update the Package Data
Open the [Program Files]\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\Bootstrapper\Packages\DotNetFx35SP1 folder or %ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\Bootstrapper\Packages\DotNetFx35SP1 on x64 operating systems
Edit the Product.xml file in Notepad.
Paste the following into the < PackageFiles > element:
<PackageFile Name="TOOLS\clwireg.exe"/>
<PackageFile Name="TOOLS\clwireg_x64.exe"/>
<PackageFile Name="TOOLS\clwireg_ia64.exe"/>
Find the element for < PackageFile Name="dotNetFX30\XPSEPSC-x86-en-US.exe" and change the PublicKey value to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
Find the element for < PackageFile Name="dotNetFX30\XPSEPSC-amd64-en-US.exe" and change the PublicKey value to the same as in step 4 above
Save the product.xml file
Download and Extract the Core Installation Files
Navigate to the following URL: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?LinkID=118080
Download the dotNetFx35.exe file to your local disk.
Open a Command Prompt window and change to the directory to which you downloaded dotNetFx35.exe.
At the command prompt, type:
dotNetFx35.exe /x:.
This will extract the Framework files to a folder named “WCU” in the current directory.
Copy the contents of the WCU\dotNetFramework folder and paste them in the %Program Files%\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\Bootstrapper\Packages\DotNetFx35SP1 folder (%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\Bootstrapper\Packages\DotNetFx35SP1 on x64 operating systems). Note: Do not copy the WCU\dotNetFramework folder itself. There should be 5 folders under the WCU folder, and each of these should now appear in the DotNetFx35SP1 folder. The folder structure should resemble the following:
o DotNetFx35SP1 (folder)
dotNetFX20 (folder
dotNetFX30 (folder)
dotNetFX35 (folder)
dotNetMSP (folder)
TOOLS folder)
en (or some other localized folder)
dotNetFx35setup.exe (file)
You may now delete the files and folders you downloaded and extracted in steps 2 and 4.

For VS 2015, here is a very simple solution (including some Michael Eakins answer):
Download the installer here:
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?LinkID=118080
Extract / open with 7zip or Winrar and extract the contence to a folder
Copy/move everything under the extracted folder "wcu\dotNetFramework" path to:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 4.0\SDK\Bootstrapper\Packages\DotNetFX35SP1
Publish in VS2015

I am trying to make a naoqi package with qipkg (I dont know if this problem is specific to aldebaran naoqi or if it is a general windows problem)
qipkg make-package Pepper-Demo.pml
but I get the folowing error:
NotInPath Could not find executable: lrelease
qipkg deploy-package is working as it should.
I solved it with the folowing steps:
Check if there is a .exe file called lrelease in the folder at:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Softbank Robotics\Choregraphe Suite 2.5\bin
If not, search for the file on your computer using search in file explorer.
The error message displayed in which folders it searched for.
Go to the first folder it searched in (or create it) and paste the lrelease file.
The vendor says to drag the application to the trash, but the application was installed using an installer that required admin permissions at several points. What else needs to be removed?

In Steam, we can configure multiple directories/folders where it will look for applications. It is found in the menu Steam->Settings->Downloads->STEAM LIBRARY FOLDERS dialog.
Where can I find those settings if I'm looking programatically from outside Steam?
I'm more interested in the location for the Windows client.
Found it. On Windows they are stored in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\libraryfolders.vdf, and you also have to add Steam's install folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam
Here's a sample Python script to extract the information:
import re
with open(r"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\libraryfolders.vdf") as f:
folders = [r"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam"]
lf = f.read()
folders.extend([fn.replace("\\\\", "\\") for fn in
re.findall('^\s*"\d*"\s*"([^"]*)"', lf, re.MULTILINE)])
I found it here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\config\config.vdf
There's a line in that file:
"BaseInstallFolder_1" "{YourSteamLibraryFolder}"
So I just open it with Notepad then Ctrl+F search 'Base'.
If that line is not in there:
Open Steam. > Sign into you account. > 'Steam'. > 'Settings'.
Then click on 'Downloads'. > 'STEAM LIBRARY FOLDERS'.
Make an empty folder somewhere.
Click on 'ADD LIBRARY FOLDER'.
Browse to the empty folder you made. > Click on 'SELECT'.
If you then look at the config.vdf again; there should be a line like this:
"BaseInstallFolder_1" "{YourNewEmptySteamLibraryFolder}"
If Steam hasn't been installed in the default location in Windows, you can find it in the registry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, on path SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Valve\Steam. Here's how I found it in Kotlin:
private val steamFolder: File = File(WinRegistry.getString(
WinRegistry.HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,
"SOFTWARE\\Wow6432Node\\Valve\\Steam",
"InstallPath"))
You can then find the libraryfolders.vdf and config.vdf files, as per the other answers.
In each of those library folders you'll find files called appmanifest_<id>.acf, where <id> is the id of the game (find it in Properties / Updates on Steam). If you're looking for a particular game, that will help to determine which folder the game is in, if there's more than one game install location.
After installing extension in VS 2012 it is placed in %userprofile%AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\11.0\Extensions\ (or in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE\Extensions if it is installed for all users) and in folder with random name like "hilatg23.234" or "kcsuvnvi.qtq". Is there a way to specify the name of this folder and make this extension to install to folder like %userprofile%AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\11.0\Extensions\MY_EXTENSION_NAME
Hm, don´t think so. The VSIX installer will always choose the installation directory automatically. If you want to let the user decide about the installation folder, you´d need to create a MSI installation package.
A while ago I answered another question regards the package registration; maybe some of the provided information might help to create such a setup. See post at: MSI installed VSPackage is loaded in Experimental Instance only
If you just want to obtain the package installation folder at runtime, you can just get it from the package´s assembly codebase, like:
private static string ObtainInstallationFolder()
{
Type packageType = typeof(MyPackage);
Uri uri = new Uri(packageType.Assembly.CodeBase);
var assemblyFileInfo = new FileInfo(uri.LocalPath);
return assemblyFileInfo.Directory.FullName;
}
My solution:
I use this api get vsix install physical path:
string path = System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location;
path = \AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\...\Extensions\[install path]\xx.dll
You can control the name of the Extensions<folder> with this msbuild property in your vsix project file:
<ExtensionInstallationFolder>YourExtensionName</ExtensionInstallationFolder>
I am using InstallShield 2011 for creating installscript project,Now the problem is i want to copy some ini file from the folder to the path where my .exe will installed.
Here is the scenario--
I will give our client to a Folder which contain 2 things
Setup.exe
ini folder which contain .ini files.
Now I want that when I execute the setup.exe all the .ini file will copy on the location where the setup is install.
I am using now--
CopyFile (PACKAGE_LOCATION ^ "ini\\*.ini" , szSDKDirectory );
But when I debug PACKAGE_LOCATION contain null string.
If your media type is CD-ROM, you can use SRCDIR.
PACKAGE_LOCATION just for Network Image media type.
If your media type is EXE you could have also used SETUPEXEDIR
