Simple Check boxes, Install options, results => settings file?

mindwarp · 11th November 2009, 09:23

I'm trying to make a small alteration to my NSI installer file.

Originally the file was created using the HM NIS Edit Script Wizard.

I'm a little confused to what it all does.

I'd like to add some installer options, check boxes and have the results saved to a settings file, so my program can pick them up.

Can anyone help me, I've looked at the help documentation and I can't find an example of how to do this. I've also searched on this forum but I can only find topics related to options which the installer acts upon.

Thanks in advance

To learn NSIS script, start with the example files.
NSIS\Examples\example1.nsi and example2.nsi.

Later on, when you've learned NSIS, you can use nsDialogs to create a custom page with your checkboxes.
