windows installer popup when running prog from msi

[matthewk]

I made a winamp 2.91 msi along with one for flashget and winrar. The winamp one seems to have a problem. It installed fine. But seemingly after each reboot and the first time running winamp, it seems to show a windows installer popup that says gathering information. It goes away after like 5 seconds. How do I prevent this? Thank you

you made the MSI either wrong, or something in the system isn't keeping a setting and it must reinitialize it.

You could have also made it, so that the shortcuts you create for Winamp aren't normal shortcuts but Advertised shortcuts which would then need to call the MSI to find where the files are located.
