Uninstall Start menu shortcut

[MB1]

Hi
Env Win 7 Nsis 3.08
I'm new about nsis.. i just succesfully create some simple NSIS scrpt to install my programs
The question is about start menu shortcut unistalling
i succesfully write code to let to installer to choose start menu folder
i put here the interested code

code:
XPStyle on

Page custom StartMenuGroupSelect "" ": Start Menu Folder"

UninstPage uninstConfirm

UninstPage instfiles



Function StartMenuGroupSelect

	Push $R1



	StartMenu::Select /checknoshortcuts "Don't create a start menu folder" /autoadd /lastused $R0 "MP3 Downloader"

	Pop $R1



	StrCmp $R1 "success" success

	StrCmp $R1 "cancel" done

		; error

		MessageBox MB_OK $R1

		StrCpy $R0 "MP3 Downloader" # use default

		Return

	success:

	Pop $R0



	done:

	Pop $R1

FunctionEnd

Section "Start Menu Shortcuts"

	# this part is only necessary if you used /checknoshortcuts

	StrCpy $R1 $R0 1

	StrCmp $R1 ">" skip



		CreateDirectory $SMPROGRAMS\$R0

		CreateShortcut $SMPROGRAMS\$R0\MP3_Dowmloader.lnk $INSTDIR\MP3_Downloader.bat

		CreateShortcut "$SMPROGRAMS\$R0\MP3 Updater.lnk" "$INSTDIR\Updater.bat"

		

	skip:

SectionEnd

the question is how to reference the directory $SMPROGRAMS\$R0
in the unistallal section ?

i tried

code:
Delete "$SMPROGRAMS\$R0\MP3_Dowmloader.lnk"

Delete "$SMPROGRAMS\$R0\MP3 Updater.lnk"

RMDir "$SMPROGRAMS\$R0"

but it does not function ..
i'm not using the modern interface..and if possible i do not want to use it..
Thanks in advance for the support

Classic NSIS does not write anything anywhere automatically, you need to save the folder name in the installer. You can save it in a .ini file or in the registry. Restore the variable in your uninstaller.

Ideally you should just have a single shortcut in $SMPROGRAMS. The Microsoft guidelines say you should not create shortcuts to updaters/uninstallers/help etc.
