I'm currently working on incorporating two applications and a set of folders into Inno Setup in order to generate the installer file.

After successfully creating the installer file, it functions as expected the first time. However, when I attempt to use the same installer on another laptop, one of the applications installs correctly while the other does not.

This behavior is quite strange, and despite my efforts to resolve it using various methods, I haven't been able to find a solution. That's why I'm reaching out to you for assistance.

Best regards,

SID

Start by manually getting the application to run on the other computer (I suggest you use a virtual machine, because it's easy to return it to a clean state with snapshots), then once that works, replicate your manual steps with Inno Setup.

I would recommend enabling setup logging and check the log file for errors. Use the /LOG command line parameter for the installer.
