Shell command without the DOS-Windows

[Ewgenijkkg]

Hello, all. Is it possible to run a shell program from NSIS script without the DOS-Popup window emerging when I use Exec or ExecWait for that purpose?

nsExec, ExecCmd or ExecDos

Ah, thanks. Is this nsExec a plugin? But I could not find it on the plugin page of NSIS. And there is nothing about it in the standard documentation delivered during the NSIS installation. The only site where I found something about it is http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Docs/nsExec/nsExec.txt

doesn't it come with nsis by default? check NSIS\Plugins or NSIS\Examples\nsExec

[Ewgenijkkg]

Yes, it comes by default. But it is not described anywhere in the documentation. And it is not mentioned on the plugin page of NSIS http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Category:Plugins, or am I blind?

But it is not described anywhere in the documentation.

Try looking at the "NSIS Menu" which you can run from the Start Menu or the desktop shortcut created when you installed NSIS.

The menu lists several plugins, including nsExec, and clicking on the plugin name displays the documentation for it.

Ah, OK, found it! Thank you
