Hi,

I am using this program to install Splashtop. Here is the tutorial:

https://support-splashtopbusiness.splas ... installer-

Basically i need to create 3 very similar installers. the only difference is each will have a different install code embedded which is in the command line.

When I did the first, no problems, and then saved the project. I changed the code and then re-saved the project under a different name. I did the same again for the 3rd.

The first installer no problems. the second and 3rd get an error "could not extract file! streamer.exe"
Streamer.exe is the only file I have in the the installforge project.

I have checked all my settings and done heaps of troubleshooting, recreating the project from scratch, trying different names and install on different machines. a couple of times i've got it working but then I re-build from the same project and then it doesn't work

The crazy thing is, if i click 'retry' a few times and then ignore, it extracts to the right location and installs correctly (most of the time)

HELP!!!!
