Hi everybody!

////////////////////////////// REQUEST #1 /////////////////////////////////////////

I'm workin' on Nero 8.3.20.0 Lite/Micro true addon (english/french). One thing missing : i plan to check reg entries about nero previous versions(v7/v8).

If ONE of these reg entries is found, a message will prompt user : "A previous version of Nero has been founded on your system. Please uninstall it before continuing.". This will abort addon installation.

I'm tryin' to use CustomDestination directive to check Windows registry. But i'm little bit confused about its using.

[install.Nero8Lite]

11,,rundll32.exe,,,"advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %01%\Nero8L.inf,Install"

[install]

BeginPrompt = ...

CustomDestination = Nero.PreviousVersions.Detected

RunPreSetupCommands = Create.i386:1,MSVC++2005.Check:1,Nero8PreInstall.Check:1

[Nero.PreviousVersions.Detected]

49000=Nero7Lite.Check,22

[Nero7Lite.Check]

"HKLM","SOFTWARE\Nero\Installation\Families\Nero 7","","%Nero7Lite_FOUNDED%.",""

[strings]

Nero7Lite_FOUNDED="A previous version of Nero has been founded on your system. Please uninstall it before continuing"

Durant my tests, this above prompt message is shown, even there's no regentries for NERO.

////////////////////////////// REQUEST #2 /////////////////////////////////////////

I'm also workin' on an addon for Nero 9.4.26.0b. And i'm lookink for how to check if .NET Framework 3.0 (Registry check) is installed or not.

PLEASE YOUR HELP, LINKS & ADVICES WILL VERY APPRECIATED. THANX

This only works the other way around...if the program/reg-entry is NOT installed it will fail, only if it finds the registry entry will it install

Yes your second request is what this is used for, to check for a registry entry...if it finds .net 3.0 reg entry you specify ONLY then will it proceed

something like

Runpresetupcommands =Close.IDM:1

[Close.IDM]

"CMD /Q /C taskkill /f /t /im ""idman.exe"""

Thanks Dark.

It's correctly :

[install]

CustomDestination=RessourceHacker.Detected

[RessourceHacker.Detected]

49000=RessourceHacker.Check,1

[RessourceHacker.Check]

"HKCR,"CLSID\{D14ED2E1-C75B-443c-BD7C-111111111194}","","% %.","" RessourceHacker_FOUNDED

[strings]

RessourceHacker_FOUNDED = "Une version Ressource Hacker a

Hello Alpha_95 !

Dans le mod

Salut Alpha_95 :welcome: !

Les entrées de ton soft pour affichage dans le Panneau de configuration peuvent être SIMPLEMENT supprimées AVANT L'INSTALL (avant réécriture éventuelle) :

[DefaultInstall]

RegisterDlls = Install.TON_APPLI

[install.TON_APPLI]

11,,rundll32.exe,,,"advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %01%\TON_FICHIER_INF.inf,Install"

[install]

BeginPrompt = BeginInsPrompt

RunPreSetupCommands = Create.i386:1,PreInstall.Check:1

CopyFiles = @TON_FICHIER_INF.inf,...

AddReg = CPL.Entries.AddReg

RunPostSetupCommands = Delete.i386

[PreInstall.Check]

DelReg = CPL.Entries.DelReg

[CPL.Entries.DelReg]

HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ControlPanel\NameSpace\D14ED2E1-C75B-443c-BD7C-111111111294"

[CPL.Entries.AddReg]

Voici, par exemple, comment j'ajoute/supprime une icône pour Nero ControlCenter dans le Panneau de config (le GUID a été généré à l'aide du soft M$ cité + bas) :

[NeroControlCenter.CPL]

HKCR,"CLSID\{28E478E3-EC15-4531-9BF2-64603C35AE7A}","InfoTip",,"Maintenez Nero à jour !"

HKCR,"CLSID\{28E478E3-EC15-4531-9BF2-64603C35AE7A}\DefaultIcon",,,"%16427%\%Nero_Web%\SetupX.exe"

not sure but what about testing with the cmd

something like ""%16422%\My_Prog\uninst.exe" /S"

Try this:

"""%16422%\Mon_Prog\uninst.exe"" /S"
