You can make these addons by yourself. Here is a small tutorial for this program.

1. Extract the files from it to C:\S&M\

2. Download NSIS

3. Install NSIS

4. Open Notepad and prepare to write some NSIS scripting:)

I tried to put comments as much as I can

;S&M_installscipt.nsi
;
;Sample NSIS silent installation script by Geezery
;
;Name of the program
Name "S&M - Stress test v1.8.1 beta" 

;Name of the executable file
OutFile "S&M_setup.exe"

;Installation path 
InstallDir "$PROGRAMFILES\S&M\" 

;Silent installation / uninstallation by default. You don't need any installation switches for example "/S"
SilentInstall silent 
SilentUnInstall silent 

;Name of the Installation section
Section "Installation" 

;Select the files you want to include to your installation (Local path = Where the files are in your hard disk)
SetOutPath "$INSTDIR" 
File "C:\S&M\S&M.exe"
File "C:\S&M\README.txt"
File "C:\S&M\DLL\Core2.bin"
File "C:\S&M\DLL\INPORT32.DLL"
File "C:\S&M\DLL\IO.DLL"

;We need to add this, if we want to include the uninstaller.
WriteUninstaller "S&M-uninst.exe" 

;Here we write the needed registry information, so we can remove the program from the Add / Remove Control Panel applet.

  WriteRegStr HKLM "${REG_UNINSTALL}" "DisplayName" "Add/Remove Example"
  WriteRegStr HKLM "${REG_UNINSTALL}" "DisplayIcon" "$INSTDIR\S&M-uninst.exe"
  WriteRegStr HKLM "${REG_UNINSTALL}" "DisplayVersion" "1.8.1 beta"
  WriteRegStr HKLM "${REG_UNINSTALL}" "Publisher" "S&M - Stress test"
  WriteRegStr HKLM "${REG_UNINSTALL}" "InstallSource" "$EXEDIR\"

;Under WinXP this creates two separate buttons: "Modify" and "Remove".
;"Modify" will run installer and "Remove" will run uninstaller.
  WriteRegDWord HKLM "${REG_UNINSTALL}" "NoModify" 0
  WriteRegDWord HKLM "${REG_UNINSTALL}" "NoRepair" 0
  WriteRegStr HKLM "${REG_UNINSTALL}" "UninstallString" \
'"$INSTDIR\S&M-uninst.exe"'
  WriteRegStr HKLM "${REG_UNINSTALL}" "ModifyPath" '"$EXEDIR\${InstFile}"'

;Here we can specify the shortcuts to create

;Creates a new group in Start Menu / Programs group called S&M
CreateDirectory "$SMPROGRAMS\S&M"
;Then we create shortcuts for uninstall and the program file.
CreateShortCut "$SMPROGRAMS\S&M\S&M.lnk" "$INSTDIR\S&M.exe"
SectionEnd 


;Uninstallation Section - Here we specify, what we need to remove

Section "Uninstall" 

;Deletes all the files

Delete "$INSTDIR\*.*" 
RMDir "$INSTDIR" 
Delete "$INSTDIR\DLL\*.*" 
RMDir "$INSTDIR\DLL" 

;Remove the links
Delete "$SMPROGRAMS\S&M\*.*"
RMDir "$SMPROGRAMS\S&M"

SectionEnd

5. Compile the script with NSIS

6. Now you should have these files in your c:\S&M\ directory

7. Then you must create the NLite addon. There is a nice tool called NLite Add-on Maker.

8. Copy the S&M_Setup.exe to C:\S&M\setup folder, because you don't need the other files in the Nlite Add-on.

9. Open the prog and make the following changes:

Then press Make File and choose a folder to place the .cab file.

Now you should have a nice NLite addon to put in your unattended windows installation.

geezery would it be possible to add some entry so program can be uninstaled from CP (add/remove programs),not just via start/programs or folder uninstaler shortcut?

BTW nice turtorial

[geezery]

I added the Add / Remove also to the example. Nice to notice someone else has watched this topic.

Here is the URL for the NSIS Add / Remove example. http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Add/Remove_Functionality

I didn't test the script. I also removed the uninstall icon from the start menu.

Yes I'm triying to use this script as a template for other programs that do not have installer.

hmm..thanks for the info,I just test script and ai get 10 warnings i the end and no uninstall entries in CP?

here is the end of warning log. Other than that it installs fine,no problem.

10 warnings:

unknown variable/constant "{REG_UNINSTALL}" detected, ignoring (C:\S&M\comp.nsi:34)

unknown variable/constant "{REG_UNINSTALL}" detected, ignoring (C:\S&M\comp.nsi:35)

and ...comp is script name in S&M folder
