      @orange the script is almost exactly like what I have.
      It turns out to be a PACE signing issue. Although the plugin shows as being a folder instead of the AAX plugin icon, it's working. Good enough for me! 😂

        @dustbro Good to see it is working.

        Actually I couldn't managed to add the AAX icon to the aax plugin folders, but aax plugins work without any issues ;)

        By the way if anyone know how to add aax icons to the installation files or how to create folders with aax icons, it would be good to share from here.

          @orange I just noticed this at the end of compiling AAX:

          aax folder icon.png

          Maybe we can set the folder Icon with the installer as well?

                @dustbro In Inno only. Can you send the magic code for the icon?

                  @orange I used the script wizard to get started. It's one of the setup options.

                          Install Forge Also Has A Built-In Copy Protection System.
                          You Can Use Your Serial Numbers By Adding Them Manually Or Simply Click On The Button
                          "Generate" And It Will Do The Job For You :)
                          Then Simply Store The Serial Numbers By Pressing The Save Button

                            Looks great. How many maximum serials can be generated in one installer?

                              @Natanr How do you specify different install directories for different files? It looks like you can add as many files and folders as you want, but they can only go to one destination.

                                  I Believe That The Installing Destination Is Limited To Only One :/
                                  But The Trick Is To Create Two/2 Installers, One For 32 Bit And The Other One For 64 Bit.
                                  I Seen So Many Companies Use This Method

                                  BTW, I'll Send Them A Quote And Ask Them How To Make Multiple Paths

                                    Do you guys really bother using serials as copy protection? This isn’t effective at all as far as I know or is it?

                                      It certainly doesn't prevent copying or "piracy".

                                          I checked some traffic of developer sites and was surprised to see that approx 15% of the traffic comes from some shady sites and leads to PayPal :)

                                            We've had this conversation both here and in other forums so many times I lost count. The real-world answer to this is "Yes, it is effective..."

                                            EVERYONE on the planet has an opinion about copy-protection and how its a waste of time - note thats OPINION, when you ask them about their experience its zero - they are not a developer and have never released a product.
                                            We should be very wary of these opinion givers, it's a classic case of logic defeating experience, so if you are basing your view on logic in this instance not experience then you are wrong (in my experience). Here's why:

                                            if you have no copy protection the script-kiddies will upload your product to a warez site in the first 2 weeks - killing your initial(major) sales - with no perceived consequence to them
                                            .
                                            If you do have (even the simplest easily breakable) copy-protection this wont happen - and it will take a serious cracker several months to get to you(if they even bother) - ensuring your sales in those months stay strong.

                                            @clumsybear - I'm not saying you are one of these opinion givers by the way...just suggesting you be careful being influenced by them.
