INNO TROUBLESHOOT - Questions Here

never use apostrophes. the inno preprocessor projects what ever is written to the specified point, now if you include an apostrophe, it is like you are breaking a circle of some sort, for example in a situation like this.

ExpandConstant('{#appname}');

then it will be like this, ExpandConstant('Clive Barker's Jericho');

now there are there apostrophes, like in English but called quotation marks, when you quote, there has to be an opening quotation and the closing quotation, he asked "who wants to die tonight?"

In Pascal, an apostrophe character inside a string literal needs to be doubled:

#define AppName "Clive Barker''s Jericho"

Doubling them will keep them both in the installer, that's not a solution.
