I'm currently working on a project where I need to include some setup files which I store in the Language Independent section of the Support File view. My problem is when the installation runs and it goes to move those files to the temp directory I get the windows installer - preparing to install dialog then it disappears about 30 seconds before the files are fully extracted to the temp folder which makes it look like nothing is going on until the InstallWelcome dialog shows up.
The files must be included this way so I can build it to a single .exe file but still allow me to call them later on. It seems unreasonable to me that is takes over 1 minute for 200mb of files to be extracted even with the machine im using which is a little slow.
Is there a way to speed up file extraction to the temp folder or is there a better way to do this? I cant find any other options since I need a single .exe installer and must be able to call another .exe and have it be able to call its own setup files.
