Run-time Conditions

Run-time conditions let you control whether specific files get installed from your setup executable onto the user's system.

Every file in a Setup Factory project can have a run-time condition attached to it. The run-time condition determines whether that file gets installed when the setup executable is run.

A run-time condition is a conditional expression that resolves to either true or false. If the expression resolves to true, the file is installed. If it resolves to false, the file is not installed.

NOTE

 

You can also control whether files are installed by assigning them to packages. Files belonging to a package are only installed if the user selects that package at run time. However, even when a package is selected, each file's run-time condition must still be satisfied in order for that file to be installed.
