Brief description of your issue

The Inno Setup application contains a CLI tool called ISCC.exe which is not made available via a link or in $PATH after installation.

Steps to reproduce

  1. winget install JRSoftware.InnoSetup
  2. Open a new PowerShell window
  3. Type ISCC

Actual behavior

iscc: The term 'iscc' is not recognized as a name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or executable program.
Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

Expected behavior

The command should be avaliable in $PATH to run from any terminal. I can confirm the executable is correctly installed at the following paths (depending on scope)

user: %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\Inno Setup 6\ISCC.exe
machine: C:\Program Files (x86)\Inno Setup 6\ISCC.exe

I can also confirm that using a symlink does work correctly (i.e. there appear to be no DLL dependencies for the executable to run).

Environment

Windows Package Manager v1.7.11261
Windows: Windows.Desktop v10.0.22631.3593
Package: Microsoft.DesktopAppInstaller v1.22.11261.0

WinGet doesn’t have the ability to add programs to PATH unless they have the installer type portable - which are loose binaries that don’t have an installer. In all other cases, it is up to the application's installer to update PATH.

Ah, I had a feeling that may be the case. Thanks for the clarification. I'm happy to raise this directly with the vendor and close this issue if you like.
