Then, after the installer finished, the files should be removed. We've tried simply putting them as <File> in a component inside a TempFolder <Directory>, but at the time of the customAction the files are not there. So, we have little idea on how to do that. Any suggestion on how to achieve that? Thank you, Lluís. -- Lluís Batlle i Rossell Software and Electronics Engineer AQSENSE S.L.
