Unable to locate file dpinst.exe

[shantanu_gadgil]

Hi,
I have been trying the following piece of code on a Windows 7 x64 machine for some time and it just doesn't work.
The Notepad.exe can be located but not dpinst.exe although it is very much present in the directory.

code:


!include "LogicLib.nsh"

Name "Example1"

OutFile "example1.exe"

InstallDir $DESKTOP\Example1



# Added by me

RequestExecutionLevel highest



Page directory

Page instfiles



Var /GLOBAL fname



Section ""

  SetOutPath $INSTDIR



  MessageBox MB_OK "SYSDIR: $SYSDIR"



  ;StrCpy $fname "$SYSDIR\notepad.exe"

  StrCpy $fname "$SYSDIR\dpinst.exe"



  ${If} ${FileExists} $fname

	MessageBox MB_OK "1"

  ${Else}

    SearchPath $0 dpinst.exe

    ${If} ${FileExists} $0

	MessageBox MB_OK "2"

    ${Else}

      	MessageBox MB_OK "3"

    ${EndIf}

  ${EndIf}

SectionEnd ; end the section

I could also make do with just "IfFileExists" ... that doesn't work either!

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Regards,
Shantanu
