I developed an application using TideSDK for Windows, and when I click LaunchApp , it works fine. Now I switched to packaging it and installed ImageMagick and Wix 3.0, which are necessary for packaging on Windows. Then I clicked on Package with runtime , and then I can’t guess where the packaged application is? I found the “installer” file in the workspace, but when I click on it, it says installer could not find the application path . I think the application will not be packaged correctly.
Here is the log I see in the TideSDK:

I think it may also be that the application is packaged correctly and I cannot find the correct package. What file / folder do you use as distribution kit after packaging?
