  • Copy file from CD to HD

    Hello all-
    How would I copy a file from the CD to the end user's HD?

    Re: Copy file from CD to HD

    When I came across this I was stumped. What I did is I made a self-extracting zip file using ZipMagic 4.0(i prefer ZipMagic because of the user interface when extracting...just looks better and more options). When the user would click on the appropriate button to lauch the .exe the self-extracting would do its thing. You can also pre-determine where the default extracting will be. Hopes this helps.

        I do this all the time.
        If you have Setup Factory you can make a project with a bunch of files to trasnfer and compile it as an exe from Setup Factory.

        I have one project (like a template) and use it over and over again just changing the location path and the file collection.

        While compiling the exe you can have the user pick the location to copy files to or you can hard code it and make it unchangable.

        Hope this helps.
