Here is the question, I have created a couple of addons but have changed the default program group shortcuts on the start menu to a custom folder ie

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\My Programs\Utilities\Program Name

So how do I remove the shortcuts when the program is uninstalled. :blink: I could change the default install directory, but is there another way, now that I have created the addons?

Thanx inadvance ;)

I am not using the ProfileItems I am just copying them to the start menu.

This is what I am using for VirDir Manager and softleds

[DestinationDirs]

Shortcut =16407,Utilts,Virmgr

[DestinationDirs]

Shortcut =16407,Utilts,Softleds

I just need some way to deleted these shortcuts when the programs get uninstalled.

You can use DelFiles then to delete your shortcuts, this will use the same section used for CopyFiles to locate and delete the files

Thanx for your reply ricktendo64, but I am a bit unsure... :blink:

this is my inf below, Not the one for UltraISO, bjfrog was just showing me how he did it in his addon.

Can I still use the DelFiles even if I am using the programs uninstall & where would I put it?

Thanx...

Rick,Thank you very much!

if the uninstall executable path like this

%16422%\%Prog_Dir%\%Sub_Dir%\uninst.exe

Does I write that line like this ?

[RunUninst]
""""%16422%\%Prog_Dir%\%Sub_Dir%\uninst.exe""" /SILENT"

or still write like that?

[RunUninst]
"""%16422%\%Prog_Dir%\%Sub_Dir%\uninst.exe"" /SILENT"

I mean how many pairs quotation marks added to the executable path are decided by the deepth of dir or only need two pairs .

If mine does not execute the program go ahead and add another quote, if it worked your way thats then thats the correct amount of quotes ;)

Quotes may only be needed btw for the second runpost/presetupcommand actually, this should work just fine

%16422%\%Prog_Dir%\%Sub_Dir%\uninst.exe /SILENT;quotes not needed in the first path

%16422%\%Prog_Dir%\%Sub_Dir%\uninst.exe /SILENT """%16422%\%Prog_Dir%\%Sub_Dir%\Example.ini""";quotes are needed in second path

OH and the quotes are only needed/used for paths with spaces in them, example

"Program(space)Files\etc"
