Not that I am aware of, I have always used fileio-rmdir

I have a lot of inno installers to install, I have got into a habit of extracting the exes with inno unpacker and editing with istool, you can add the registry entries to the installer, and delete or replace files.

Add <recurse>yes</recurse> to the end of your code.

swgreed came up with an idea here

Version 2.2.3 is an inno installer, so try /verysilent /sp-

I suspect those hyperlinks were the ones linking to Wraith's webpage and the email links, if the correct link had been clicked (at least on XPlode4.1.50226.868.exe) the button would be active.

There is nothing wrong with the installation. Instead of offending the Xplode author, people should read the EULA fully paying attention to what it says as opposed to a quick skim through

No, just as in Nanaki's example.

try %cdrom%\Software\alcohol\setup.msi /qb you may also want to add the REBOOT=Suppress as well unless you are using a custom msi

batmeter.dll located in system32 folder, open with resource hacker and they are in bitmap number 300 & 301

Then make sure all the files with the extension ".x4e" are in the same directory as xplode.exe.i.e make sure files such as XPlodeExecute.x4e, XPlodeAcctMgmt.x4e are in C:\install\XPlode\ or wherever you are running xplode.exe from

You could create a batch file that deletes all the dirs you want e.g rd /s /q "%allusersprofile%\Application Data\Spybot - Search & Destroy" then run that from xplode with <execute display='Running Batch file'> <program>#SYSTEMROOT#\delete.cmd</program> <hide>true</hide> </execute> replacing the file names and locations with your own

I have used NoClone and Retriever Image Viewer in the past.

Well if you mean delete the recycle bins created from previous installations on other partitions, as these stay in the recycler folders with the previous SID I use this in my batch files REM Delete Old Recycle Bins for %%i in (D: E: F: G: H: I: J: K: L: M: N: O: P: Q: R: S: T: U: V: W: X: Y: Z:) do if exist "%%i\Recycler" attrib -s -r -h "%%i\Recycler" for %%i in (D: E: F: G: H: I: J: K: L: M: N: O: P: Q: R: S: T: U: V: W: X: Y: Z:) do if exist "%%i\Recycler" rd /s /q "%%i\Recycler"

The way I do it is to rename the shortcuts, adding a number at the beginning of the name equal to the order that I want them to be displayed in, i.e 01 Show Desktop 02 Internet Explorer 03 Explorer 04 IncrediMail 06 GrabIt then when the links get copied during setup they are in the order I prefer.

This happens when there are two machines with the same name on the network, alter the sif file while testing or change the name of the machine you are running VMWare on

I have been using WholockMe for a while after finding it on the authors website, and in all this time I have never used it on a folder, only files, once the files have been unlocked I am able to delete the folder. If you want to keep the WholockMe functionality you can delete this key [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Folder\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\WhoLockMe] which will remove WhoLockMe from the folders context menu, give browsing functionality back to start menu folders and still keep the file context menu.

I checked the properties and Enable Dragging and Dropping is enabled, thanks anyway, I use the classic start menu but the same happens on the XP start menu.

Yep, Inno Setup IsTool Inno Unpacker

As it is an inno setup installer, I normally extract it with inno unpacker and edit the script with istool so I can import my settings form a reg file into the installation program itself, and, as I sort my program shortcuts into groups I can also remove the shortcut creation step.

I have the same problem regarding the start menu, I can right click on the programs folder on the start menu and get an explorer window to open but am unable to do this on the sub folders, i.e Start Up and others. I also have shortcut folders in the all users start menu and these to suffer the same inability. The only thing that I use is RyanVM's update pack and when it is removed from dosnet and txtsetup and another installation is done, the functionality returns. This is not really a big deal for me as I very rarely explore the shortcut folders and would rather have the updates and if I do need to explore I can still right click on the start button and progress from there.

I agree with dcromwell, there are two files that I have had to add to the system32 dir these are comdlg32.ocx, as mentioned and mscomctl.ocx, now they get installed with every unattended so I forget some programs might need them as I dont get any errors

The number on the Properties page is the PID number, this is derived from the product key. If you bought the computer from manufacturers like Dell or Gateway the product key on the sticker probably won't match the one used on your PC. These companies sometimes use System Locked Pre-installation (SLP) this activates by checking the BIOS for specific information, thus giving the appearance that activation is not required, everytime you logon SLP checks the bios for the info and if it has logs on. The number on the sticker is just proof that you have a legally licensed version.

DVD Region Free is an inno setup installer so can be installed silently with /verysilent /sp- The /sp- is not always needed but just to be safe I always add it.

Good job I checked here as I didn't get a reply notification. For those who downloaded my zip I found a bug when pasting the key in, if there was info on the clipboard, ctrl V, which is the key press sent, would not paste the correct info, so I use the paste clipboard button, I re-upped the new version. @jamesas what was the file name?. If any of the apps I install unattended need an ocx file I add it to $OEM$\$$\system32 and it gets copied across, then register it if it needs to be with regsvr32 /s followed by the file path and name.
