"Files in use" list

"Files in use" list

During installation, a UI pops up with a list of "Files in use" that need to be closed (see attachment).

The problem is that this list contains colons (:), and about 35 of these.

Does anyone know where these come from and how to influence this ?

What project type are you working with? If this is an InstallScript MSI project, you can add the OnFilesInUse event to your script to see the message string sent by Windows Installer to the InstallScript engine that is used to populate the SdFilesInUse dialog (use the script debugger or a message box to see the value of the message). If this is a Basic MSI project, the dialog is populated directly through MSI with the InstallValidate standard action, and very little can be done to gain any insight as to why this is occurring (or change the behavior).
