The Installing dialog says "Please wait while the Setup Wizard installs FooProduct. This may take several minutes." In our case "several minutes" is a vast understatement. In the words of one of our users, it should read, "This may take several hours, so make a cup of tea, read the forum, and be patient."

I can't find anywhere to edit this dialog, nor the string resource it uses. Is it possible?

Tim,

So you are saying our installer is "slow"? SetupBuilder incorporates the fastest decompression technology available today.

BTW, you can modify this text here:

Text and Messages -> Dialog Text -> Installation Process -> midify #DLG_INSTALL_TEXT#

Does this help?

No, no! SetupBuilder is faster than any installer I've tried. Downloading the contents of our web install package, 1.5 GB of compressed data, is slow.

Thanks for the pointer, that's just what I was looking for. I had only looked on the Dialogs tab.

Thank you! I just wanted to make sure it was not caused by a slow installer ;)
