    Default Uninstall Action

    Hi All,

    What is the equivalent to the old "Uninstall Action: Run and Wait"

    Best Regards,

    Hi Geoff,

    The uninstaller is *completely* scriptable now. You can use all functions (except "Install file") from within the uninstaller. I will provide a demo tomorrow.

    Thanks,

    Hi Friedrich,

    Oh ok then, I think I should be able to nut this out as everything is pretty intuitive, otherwise I'll sneek a look at your demo when it's available.

    Hi Geoff,

    There is already an "Uninstall Script Demo 1.sb5" example available in build #908. But we have changed a few things in our latest internal sources (makes it easier to use now).

    Thanks,

    Hi Friedrich,

    I've created and included a modified unistall script with the key lines being:

    !Uninstall Process
    Run Program %_SB_INSTALLDIR%\remall.exe /Y (Always Install) [Wait]
    Process Uninstall Queue %_SB_INSTALLDIR%\uninst.log

    The first line was created with the Run Program Dialogue using the following details:
    File Name: remall.exe
    Target Folder: %_SB_INSTALLDIR%
    Command Line: /Y
    Default Directory: %_SB_INSTALLDIR%
    Wait For Program: Checked

    For whatever reason the program doesn't run. I know the script is being called because I placed a message in it and the message showed. I can also run the program from the command line with something like this:
    "C:\Program Files\RunMenuTrial\remall.exe" /Y
    Does it appear to you that I've filled the dialogue box in incorrectly?

    Best Regards,

    Hi Geoff,

    I'll upload a new internal build later today (I'll send you a notification). We have fixed some problems in the uninstall scripting stuff.

    Thanks,
