Command Reference

Actions

Actions are specialized commands that your installer can perform at run time. Each action is a discrete instruction that tells the installer to do something - whether it's to open a document, search for a file, create a shortcut, or modify a Registry key.

Action Lists

An action list is simply a sequence of one or more actions.

(More info : We usually use this term to refer to a sequence of actions that performs a single function or serves a common purpose. It doesn't have to be that specific, though; "action list" can just as easily refer to all the actions on a tab, or to a handful of unrelated actions that you want to select and export to a file for future use.)

Action Tabs

Action tabs are found on several dialogs throughout Setup Factory. Each action tab corresponds to a different time during the installation process when actions can be performed.

(More info : Actions can occur at different times, or events, during the installation process. These events are represented by action tabs in the Setup Factory design environment. The four main action tabs are located on the Actions dialog; the others can be found on the Screen Properties and Uninstall dialogs.)

Available Actions

Please see the alphabetical list or the categorical list of actions for a complete list of all available actions.
