Hi,
We are working to reduce our installer size (setup.msi) but having some hard time.
Our .msi for one language is about 11MB and when compiling all languages to one msi it is about 96MB!!
We tried making the service and application of our SW not embedded in the .msi, but that reduced the size from 11MB to 10MB, which is totally not enough!
Our icon is pretty small (about 800KB), so I guess that's not the issue.
In addition,The package has the attribute: Compressed="yes". The Media has the following attributes: EmbedCab="yes" CompressionLevel="high" (in addition to the others).
Do you have any idea what can make our msi so big, or any idea where or how can we look to see what is the size of each component in our .msi?
Thanking you in advance
