InstallShield: copy sources locally

Question

How can I copy the installation sources to the local drive so that the original media is not required for a repair installation?

This is a Basic MSI project.

Answer 1

Browse to Releases > Product Configuration > Release Configuration, click on the Setup.exe tab and set Cache MSI Locally to Yes

Answer 2

I am not sure since I don't have the right version of Installshield available. Try verifying that the "Web Type" property is set to "One Executable" for the release.

Alternatively create a new release via the Build => Release Wizard... menu option and test out various options. For example a network image with compressed files without the setup.exe launcher.
