I Created installation setup using Install shield 2014 - Basic MSI project. After installing my exe, manually I removed some(dll) files in installation path. Then Repair using exe. If you see in control panel(Programs and Features) the size is increased (compared with Initial size). Is this excepted behavior ? If yes, let us know the reason behind this. If No, Please guide us to resolve this issue.

 

Ex : First time installation size was showing 20 MB in control panel (Programs and Features) and manually I removed some(dll) files in installation path and then performed "Repair" through setup. Then the Size was increased to 30 MB.

Well, the size in control panel tends to be inaccurate and unreliable in general. Tey setting the ARPSIZE property to the estimated size of your application in kilobytes.
