well you can't use 35 because they are not in All User

they are in UserProfile so replace the 35 with 26

that should do the trick

Edit:

and you need to add the subdir also

(i don't know if you already added it or not)

Dont know how, u making this icons:

[WindowsLiveMessenger.Shortcut1]
Name       = %NAME%,0x00000008,23
CmdLine    = 16422,"Windows Live\Messenger","msnmsgr.exe"
WorkingDir = 16422,"Windows Live\Messenger"
InfoTip    = %TIP%

[WindowsLiveMessenger.Shortcut2]
Name       = %NAME%,8,26
SubDir     = "Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch"
CmdLine    = 16422,"Windows Live\Messenger","msnmsgr.exe"
WorkingDir = 16422,"Windows Live\Messenger"
InfoTip    = %TIP%

Can you post deleting code?

[George King]

Ok Darky, got it. But there is new problem... If messenger running. I added this, but not working...

[Uninstall.msmsgs]
RunPreSetupCommands = ExitWindowsLiveMessenger:1

[ExitWindowsLiveMessenger]
TASKKILL /F /T /IM MSNMSGR.EXE

P.S. I

[ricktendo]

Try adding the /T to the end like in the example

Examples:
    TASKKILL /IM notepad.exe
    TASKKILL /PID 1230 /PID 1241 /PID 1253 /T
    TASKKILL /F /IM cmd.exe /T 
    TASKKILL /F /FI "PID ge 1000" /FI "WINDOWTITLE ne untitle*"
    TASKKILL /F /FI "USERNAME eq NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM" /IM notepad.exe
    TASKKILL /S system /U domain\username /FI "USERNAME ne NT*" /IM *
    TASKKILL /S system /U username /P password /FI "IMAGENAME eq note*"

BTW this only works if you call the INF section using advanced INF install or advpack.dll, I have a trick that uses UnRegisterDLLs (because it executes before CopyFiles) to do this for Optional Components uninstall (see plusoc.inf of my MCE addon)

[Uninstall.msmsgs]
UnregisterDLLs = ExitWindowsLiveMessenger

[ExitWindowsLiveMessenger]
11,,taskkill.exe,,,."/F /IM MSNMSGR.EXE /T"
;or
11,,tskill.exe,,,."MSNMSGR"

[George King]

Now i´m confused, i tried all of you posted (also seen plusoc.inf), but not working... :ranting:

EDIT: Got it, it must be like this:

11,,taskkill.exe,,,"/F /IM MSNMSGR.EXE /T"

try add this line

RunPostSetupCommands =Delete.Folders

[Delete.Folders]
RUNDLL32 advpack.dll,DelNodeRunDLL32 "%16422%\Windows Live\Messenger",8

Edit:

Just in case it didn't work

try this

Run        = Delete.Folders
[Delete.Folders]
CommandLine="CMD /Q /C RD /S /Q ""%16422%\Windows Live\Messenger"" "
TickCount=500

I tried this:

DelDirs             = WindowsLiveMessengerUninstall

[WindowsLiveMessengerUninstall]
"%16422%\Windows Live\Messenger"
"%16422%\Windows Live\Contacts"
"%16422%\Windows Live\Installer"

But don

[ricktendo]

DelDirs will not work if even a single file is present in the folder...
