InstallBuilder 16.7.0 now available

Our latest version update for InstallBuilder is now available. For those of you wanting support for Mac OS X 10.12 (Sierra), we have good news- it is now supported!

In this update, we also improved detection of existing .NET installations, to include .NET framework 4.6. When your application is being installed, you can have it automatically create variables that correspond to the correct version. For example, if you wanted to check for .NET framework versions 2.0 to 4.6, you could use the <autodetectDotNetFramework> action:

<autodetectDotNetFramework>

   <validDotNetVersionList>
       <validDotNetVersion>
           <maxVersion>4.6</maxVersion>
           <minVersion>3.0</minVersion>
       </validDotNetVersion>
   </validDotNetVersionList>
</autodetectDotNetFramework>

This version also includes the following bug fixes:

• Fixed project property <windowsResourceFileVersion> not working properly
• Fixed Java autodetection functionality to allow versions with 3 digits
• Fixed Windows nested signing not working properly in certain environments
