I am new to Powershell Studio and a beginner PS coder. I am trying to build an MSI and I am receving the following error. How do I correct this issue?
I do not see a place to set the staging folder location.

Thanks,

The error indicates that you are trying to use the current folder, designated by '.', as part of the MSI. This will not work.
Please post a screen shot of the MSI settings which specify which files to include.
