I have sent a small VB6 application of mine to a friend that was compiled using Inno Setup programme..

He now reports, a week later, that he has tried to install a separate piece of software by clicking on it's self-extracting .exe file but he then gets taken to MY application's setup program from a week ago...

I am on a Win98 puter, he is on an XP. I have tried the exact same self extracting .exe on my puter but it work's OK for me.

Thanks in advance

My guess is that he tried to extract the new software to the same directory that already contained your setup.exe, and he set it not to overwrite. Tell him to delete your setup.exe, move it to a different directory, or extract the new app to a different directory.

Hmmm.. I know his style.. I'm inclined to think you might be right..

I'm still inclined to think you're right.. In a printscreen of the Explorer Window there's at least two setup.exe's in the same folder..

I think he was impressed that I had all my setup.exe's in their own folder on their own Drive.. and installed into their own folder's on another Drive..
