Reorder $SMPROGRAMS

RikSaunderson · 6th February 2009, 10:59

Hi there,
Is there a way to get NSIS to automatically reorder the Strat menu, so that the new program comes up in its alphabetical place rather than at the bottom?
This website explains one way:

but it involves deleting the registry key, which means that it will only autosort when Windows restarts. How do I do it at runtime?

The user should have control of the order, you should not mess with the users config.

If you want to piss off your users and mess with their config, try http://nsis.sourceforge.net/NsisStartMenu_plug-in
