Setup factory 9.2 : error 3020: Error adding file to archive

[fvlier]

Hello,

Can someone help me with the following problem.
I'm trying to create a x64 setup on windows 8.1 machine with setup factory 9.2. This was first an x86 setup which i've copied and made into an x64 version.

But when building the setup i'm getting the error: 3020: Error adding file to archive

I've found inline on the Build error codes list that 3020 means:

3020
"Error adding file to archive: <<source filename>> (<<archive filename>>)."

Can someone help me with this problem? What did I forget or did wrong?

Please turn off your anti-virus scanner, and try again.

I have Windows 8.1 and only Windows Defender is running, no additional antiviral software. This is now turned off, but when I build the setup again the same error occurs.
The 32 bit version builds without any errors, either with Windows defender on or off.

[fvlier]

In addition: it's an 64 bit machine with Intel i5 and 8gb internal.

[Ulrich]

Can you attach the full build log? I wonder why you would have 329 warnings and if they couldn't give a hint about for the reason of the error.

Is this a physical computer or a virtual machine? Is the D: drive local, or is it a mapped network location?

Ulrich

[fvlier]

The machine is physical and the D:\ drive is a partition of the main drive. All the code is local and nothing is on the network. Building the code is directly from SetupFactory and all the files needed to build are on that D:\ partition.

The same settings are there for the 32 bit setup build which does work.

[Ulrich]

It appears that you have a control character in the output file name:

The output file name is shown as "GEOiDSetup_x64exe", because there is a 0x1F character in the name after the "4" and before the dot separating the file name and the extension. When you use the arrow keys to step through the file name, the cursor does not visually move when it reaches the invisible 0x1F character:



Please delete the contents of Setup filename in the Build Settings dialog, and enter the text again from scratch, so a valid file name will be used when you rebuild.

Thank you Ulrich, that seemed to solve the problem.
