I am a novice programmer and I just have started to learn InstallShield for a few days. I find something quite confusing that need support form experts:
In InstallScript, I can set the targeting platform/ operating system for the installation in Release wizard.
In basic MSI: I can only find the require operating system in the Project Assistant view.
That leads to my confusion:
Is targeting platform/ operating system and require operating system are the same thing? If not, does that means targeting operating systems are the only systems that my installation can run on; while require operating systems are the prerequisite, but not limited to, for my installation be able to run on?
Is there other ways that I could set the require operating system for my Basic MSI Installation rather than accessing the Project Assistant view?
There is so much I don't know, thus, your detailed explanations are much appreciated. Thank you all for your time.
