LV 2011: Unsuccessful Installer Build Looks for .ini file where it shouldn't be

I am getting unsuccessful installer builds. The error information is attached below.

 

It seems to be looking for some .ini file in the folder "CleanProject14May2012."

 

The issue is that this project is contained in a folder called "CleanProject07Apr2014." All its subvis are under this folder as well. The application that I built and am trying to package within this installer is in this folder as well. Nothing in this project should have ANYTHING to do with anything in "CleanProject14May2012," and nothing does as far as I can tell, until I try to build this installer.

First, use View-> show VI heirarchy try to see if any files are not where they should be (not necessarily in the folder where it is searching the .ini file, anywhere). If they are, move them or delete them as necessary.

Second, try a mass compile of the project folder.

Third, try creating a new build specification from scratch, using right click Build Specification->New

Fourth, painful as it is, copy all the files into a new clean project and create a new build there.

 

It has happened to me numerous times that Labview searches for some nonexistent file during build, one of the above usually solves the problem. Good luck!
