    install/install.iss
    Log Message:
    Updated for v3.20b

    Renamed output file setup.exe to install_SBBS_v*.exe because InnoSetup
    Warning: Setting the [Setup] section "OutputBaseFileName" to "setup" is not recommended, all executables named "setup.exe" are shimmed by Windows application compatibility to load additional DLLs, such as version.dll. These DLLs are loaded unsafely by Windows and can be hijacked. Use a different name, for example "mysetup".
