Hi,
I've used Spoon installer to make up a package containing an exe file, a few dll's and an assets section containing content, in the custom built exe program.
All works well, except I have an issue, where we are overwriting users installations with a more recent one, containing newer assets.
We do actually have a file updater in the main program, but the wrong one was packaged in so we are having to manually overwrite user' installations.
Everything works, including existing version detection, and the program is updated, however the old assets are still there as well as the newly installed ones. The program scans this directory and displays files accordingly, so in this instance we have 2 versions of a file showing, the old one and the new one.
Basically, my question is, is there a way to completely wipe the existing installed software, including assets before it installs the newer version?
Thanks,
Bav
