Hello,   
  
 We are experiencing a bug with the Advanced Installer “Edit” Action, where /SetProperty is executed as:   
  
 Running AdvancedInstaller.exe with command line: /edit c:\tempdrop\setup.aip /SetProperty ProductName Daily CI   
  
 which results in:   
  
 Advanced Installer 10.0   
 Usage:   
[AdvancedInstaller.com](http://AdvancedInstaller.com) \<path\_to\_project\_file\>   
[AdvancedInstaller.com](http://AdvancedInstaller.com) /help [] | /? []   
[AdvancedInstaller.com](http://AdvancedInstaller.com) /build \<path\_to\_project\_file\> { [-buildslist \<builds\_list\>] | [-configurationslist \<configurations\_list\>] } [-force]   
[AdvancedInstaller.com](http://AdvancedInstaller.com) /rebuild \<path\_to\_project\_file\> { [-buildslist \<builds\_list\>] | [-configurationslist \<configurations\_list\>] }   
[AdvancedInstaller.com](http://AdvancedInstaller.com) /edit \<path\_to\_project\_file\>

[AdvancedInstaller.com](http://AdvancedInstaller.com) /register \<license\_id\>   
 SetProperty command:   
 /SetProperty \<name=value\> [-buildname \<build\_name\>]   
 Action Failed with Return Code : -536805276   
  
 The correct command line is (at least for the latest versions of AI. We tested v9.9 and v10):   
  
 /edit c:\tempdrop\setup.aip /SetProperty ProductName=“Daily CI”   
  
  
 So FB is missing 2 things for the command line to work. The quotation marks, which can be inserted by “%var%” as workaround. But more importantly the equal sign key=value without spaces.   
  
  
 Thank you.\</build\_name\>\</name=value\>\</license\_id\>\</path\_to\_project\_file\>\</path\_variables\_file\_path\>\</command\_file\_path\>\</path\_to\_project\_file\>\</path\_to\_project\_file\>\</configurations\_list\>\</builds\_list\>\</path\_to\_project\_file\>\</configurations\_list\>\</builds\_list\>\</path\_to\_project\_file\>\</path\_to\_project\_file\>

Looks like they changes the command line options for later version. Just checked in a fix, will post here when the fix is available.
