What problems?
Records.ini is necessary because it contains all information from the files compressed by DiskSpan_GUI about the compressed files

When he wants to install a compressed game, the setup.exe installer "install" in a second. Skips archives and creates only "unistall.exe" in the installation folder and a shortcut on the desktop . If I move or delete the records.ini file, the installer works normally and installs the game. I didn't have it before, only on the last two games.
What am I doing wrong?

Information about compressed data files is in the records.ini file.
This can only happen if you merged the Records.ini file at the end of the diskspan_gui compression page and are now placing another Records.ini with incorrect information from the compressed data files.
It is not possible to extract any compressed files without existing records.ii next to setup.exe or inside setup.dll.

No no no. I don't put records.ini at the end of disckspsn_gui because I'm using the old version without this option. records.ini is created automatically by diskspan_gui together From the archive. I packed the games before and didn't even touch the file. Now to install the game I have to remove it ... I don't understand anything ...

If you are going to recompress, use the current version of diskspan_gui together with the current light installer 1.0.0.8 (Replace DiskSpan_GUI fix)

If you are not going to decompress, send me your entire project by PM (except compressed data files). Then I will analyze.
