B4J Question Inno Setup not creating desktop shortcut properly

[Mike1970]

Hi everyone, it's the first time i'm using Inno Setup, in particular following this tutorial: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/t...-way-to-distribute-standalone-ui-apps.117880/

I noticed that if I put spaces (or symbols like "_") in this variables:

#define MyAppName "Name"
#define MyAppPublisher "Publisher"
#define MyAppExeName "Name.exe"

the installer create a "dummy" shortcut without icon that can't be clicked because the path is incorrect.

If i remove the spaces it works.

I tried also to put " around all the paths in the Inno Setup script but nothing changes

Thanks in advance

very easy and much more:

and you can further optimize and customize the "iss" file generated by "Build Standalone Package"
