We are running into a problem where the irunin.xml file that gets generated during the install will occasionally be empty. This then leads to the "Invalid uninstall control file" error when trying to uninstall. We have seen this for a while but it seems to be happening more frequently recently....

Thank you for this. According to these two log files, the installation aborts after the deployment of the file dds_access.dat, in both cases.
There should be further events in the log file, such as the On Post Install and the On Shutdown events. Also, according to the log, the After Installing...

Thanks Ulrich. I have attached a zip file containing the setup and the two log files I mentioned. The one with the 2017-04-27 date in the name is the one that reproduced the problem. The other one is from a previous install on the same system that worked. I did not notice any significant difference...

You mention that you have seen this issue more than once, which could mean that there might be something strange in your project. If you could share your project file, and two installation log files - one with a normal install, and one where the uninstall was somehow damaged, I may be able to spot something...

Any ideas?

I don't know what I should be doing to fix this. As I said before we aren't modifying the XML file and the log file doesn't show any difference between when it works and when it doesn't.

The following website is under construction and we need urgently to get VStudio 2012 runtime dependency plugin. Can anybody provide a mirror website link?

Ulrich, I tried to contact you via skype without success. When the website will be back again?...

Ulrich does have a "donate" button on his website. If you find his contributions useful, I recommend that you click that button... especially if it is "urgent" I would image that would be worth something to you.

The Visual C/C++ 2012 dependency module is now available again on my server, and was updated to the latest release, update 4.
Using the previous link as on the old server will redirect to the new page.

Good morning

Sometimes I get 'Error 2050' when I´m creating the setup. The next picture shows error that I get.
If I save project, close it, re-open it and built it, the setup is generated correctly.

That could be happening?

Ok, let us make a test: Please copy the file to a different folder, for example #PROJECTFILEDIR# or C:\TEST, and add it as a primer file from there. Then, turn off your on-access background virus scanner and try to build. Normally, antivirus engines cause "access denied" errors, not "file...
