Possible to specify location for mage.exe in FinalBuilder?

FinalBuilder Discussion
1

I am trying to run the "Manifest Generation" action to create an application manifest for a ClickOnce installation. The application is build with .Net 4 and since FinalBuilder is using mage.exe from "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\Bin" this won't work. It works with .Net 3.5 but not higher. Instead I need to use the version of mage that exists in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\Bin\NETFX 4.0 Tools". I cannot see that I can change the path to mage.exe in FinalBuilder. Is this possible?

Hi Mangus,

There is no option to set the path to the mage executable. This will be determined by the version of the .NET Framework that you have selected in Tools -> Options -> FinalBuilder -> .NET Framework Version. I can confirm that when using v4.0 on my machine, FinalBuilder is using mage.exe from the ‘C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\Bin\NETFX 4.0 Tools’ directory.

Could you please check this setting and let me know if this fixes your problem?

Steve
