CVI 8.01 Installer Question

Hello,
I need my distribution to copy a file to the \Windows\System32\Drivers\ folder when executed.
Can I (and if yes how) setup the installer to perform that task?
 
Thanks,
Greg

When you define your installation (Build >> Distributions >> Edit) choose the "Files" tab.  Right click on the "Folders" title in the lower left pane, choose "All Installation Locations" and then "System" [I presume, rather then "System16"]. Then right click on that new item and choose "New Subdirectory" and create your Driver folder. Now find the file in question in the upper panes on your development PC, and use the add file button "Add File".

I have not tested this exact scenario, but I think the tools to do what you want are all there.

Hello Greg and Ian,

I have already tested this scenario and it works fine. The 'System' location points indeed to the System32 directory.
