What happens in Inno Setup when you list the same file twice? -


what happens when setup inno setup .iss file install same file same location twice? inno setup realize doing, , include , install file once, or collect file install multiple times, , overwrite each instance?

inno setup smart enough identify identical source file , include once installer. there's legitimate reason having duplicate source files; may want install same file different locations on target system.

what inno setup won't identify identical target location (i cannot think of legitimate reason having identical target location). install file twice. installs twice identical location, second installation not happen (with executable files default flags, version match) or barely noticeable (as overwrite identical data file).
