I also had this problem and I'm sure, that you can't use environmentvariables in an iss-file. So I wrote a batch, which first creates the iss file and then starts the setup.

Hey doc !

Can you post that script please ? I guess you use BartPE and start setup from there ? Where do you put that script ? In the autostart folder or run regkey ?

Thanks,

Alex

Here are the three files I use to create the iss file and installing VPN. I hope, that it is pretty self explaining

vpn.cmd

vpn_setup1.iss

vpn_setup2.iss
