Noise Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 On another note, Thanks MioKawaii for the inf files. They really are very clean. I will try the one for Winimage... after I edit out the ProToolz crap from the Start Menu/Programs directory:[AddLink]setup.ini, progman.groups,, ""group1="%16395%\Programs\ProToolz\"""(shivers)Oh and you definitely want to associate Winimage with ISO files too. It comes in very handy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MioKawaii Posted September 8, 2005 Author Share Posted September 8, 2005 (edited) On another note, Thanks MioKawaii for the inf files. They really are very clean. I will try the one for Winimage... after I edit out the ProToolz crap from the Start Menu/Programs directory:[AddLink]setup.ini, progman.groups,, ""group1="%16395%\Programs\ProToolz\"""ProToolz is just the one of the programs group folder name that I throw ALL modified general tools related applications. I do not like long and cluttered start menu, so I group them into Protoolz, Netz, LanguageToolz,............. You can edit the INF and name it whatever you want.Oh and you definitely want to associate Winimage with ISO files too. It comes in very handy.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>I only use WinImage for Floppy image. CD/DVD image are associated with both UltraISO and DaemonTools. Again, you can edit the INF and associate it with any extensions you think appropriate. Everybody have different combination of softwares, thus an INF installer is the best suited here when come to flexibility and simplicity.On another note, Thanks MioKawaii for the inf files.

This is a very OLD INF which I made together with dozens others when I first successfully make a complete INF for full install and Uninstall. It won't be done without yor help.

Kapo Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 my foobar inf installation doesn't works!I've seen the inf and i don't understand wherethe installer takes the variable %APPZ%... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yzöwl Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 Look in the 'Strings' section, usually near or at the end[Strings]APPZ = "foobar2000"Therefore every time you see '%APPZ%' in the body of the inf it is replacing the string 'foobar2000' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kapo Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 (edited) ok, i've found it, but it ask me where is foo_abx.dll...and with the 7zip archive it ask me where to extract the files. Edited September 25, 2005 by Kapo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yzöwl Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 ok, i've found it, but it ask me where is foo_abx.dll...I know nothing of this application, however from the above, I'm guessing that it's part of an additional component and if it doesn't exist will require removing from the relevant section in order to prevent the error message.Edit [Core.Copy] + [Comp.Copy] section to customize your components installation.[Comp.Copy]foo_abx.dll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yzöwl Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Not wishing to sound like a bad sport here, but I'll give MioKawaii an opportunity to reply, further, as I don't wish to take over their thread and /or additionally re-write their inf.
