Hi,

I have a Basic MSI project (with couple prerequisites and MM), I would like to build it to a single Setup.exe file while configuring the image type to 'DVD5'. Is it possible? I have gone through Release tab couple times and just couldn't make it work.


Thanks,
PB

A DVD type release will not build a compressed setup.exe as it currently is not intended to. You could build a compressed network image release and then burn the setup.exe to a DVD. Note that due to MSI limitations the compressed setup cannot be larger than 2GB.
