Run distribuition with program open

[d.ghisla]

Hello,

I am using CVI 9.0.0

I built a distribuition for my program. At first  install everything worked perfectly.

Then after I relaunched the distribution without closing the program I  got the following error message:

 
"No software will be installed or removed."

 Now you can't install or remove the program because every time I have the same message. In Control panel (Applications install) I can't find my program.

To solve the problem I must remove all my program references in to Windows Registry.

Thanks

Daniele

The "No software will be installed or removed." message is standard when you run the installation kit a second time (although I'd prefer that it explcitly say that the software is already installed).

You app should be in the Add/Remove Programs list. Perhaps its name is not what you expected.  Sort by installation date to be sure.  Failing that, going back to a Restore Point might be your last non-manual option. 

If you've partly removed the installation manually, running the installer again might repair the installation so you can see it in the Add/Remove list, and then remove it from there.
