This installer is made of two layers:

1. Inno Setup wrapper that wrapps two (x86 + x64) vJoyInstall executables

2. vJoyInstall executable that does the actual installation of the Device Driver

The log file for the Inno Setup wrapper is called Setup Log 2011-11-01 #xxx.txt and is located under %TEMP% folder. (xxx can be any number in the range 001-999).

The log file for the executable is called vJoyInstall.log and located in the vJoy folder (C:\Program Files\vJoy).
