View Full Version : Install from Existing files?

Hello,

Can someone point me to the correct method to add files that exist already -
basically replacing the "external" option of InnoSetup.

In other words, I provide a .zip that has all the files and folders
available for direct access, it also includes an installer that will use
those existing files (instead of being all in the .exe installer).

Inno example:
[Files]
Source: "{src}\docs\*"; DestDir: "{app}\docs"; Flags: ignoreversion
recursesubdirs createallsubdirs external;

TIA!!

David

David,

You can use the "Copy Folder Tree..." script function to handle this.

Does this help?
