Using Qualified Components

Hi,

I might have missed it, but I have been googling for a few days now, but how do you use Qualified Components? See:

for what I mean exactly.

Thanks in advance.

NSIS doesn't produce MSIs and that seems like MSI only feature.

You can create such type behaviour in NSIS, but you need to add quite some NSIS script. You can create a MSI installer that exhibits this behaviour and analyse the Registry entries created in the UNinstall section onf the HKLM.

Be persistent and you will succeed...

IMHO: Try to analyze first in depth what you really want your installer to achieve. Sometime and NSIS alternative is better, or easier to use.

Problem is that its for Office Components like a SpellChecker. But I will try your advice, thanks.
