Hi,
It would be great to have the ability to choose UI (themes/dialogs) for the Updater.exe.
Also, Updater.exe runs as a system tray application. Please also give an option to choose whether it should be system tray or not.
Thanks
Prasad

Re: Customizing the updater UI (given by Updater.exe)
Hi Dan, Thanks for the reply. There is a potential problem here. I noticed that when I click the minimize button, the Window will get disappeared. It will not be in the taskbar entry rather it will be in system tray. So I am thinking to show a progress bar of my own at the worst case, but I am not s...

Re: Waiting for the Updater.exe to finish from the code (C#)
Hi Daniel, Thanks for the reply. Also, I noticed that, if I run Updater.exe in a different process and in my code if I wait for it to finish using C# Process.WaitForExit (or check Process.HasExited), I am getting wrong outcomes. The Process.HasExited becomes true even if the Updater.exe has not exit...

Re: Merge an MSI/EXE installer with another
Hi Eusebiu,
Thanks for your reply.
Yes, this can be done. But I need to give an option to the user whether to install it or not. A dialog in the beginning with a checkbox to choose.
Is there a better way of doing this?
Thanks
Prasad

Merge an MSI/EXE installer with another
Hi, I want to merge a small MSI/EXE installer with my installer. I need to show a dialog with the checkboxes to the user allowing him to choose whether he wants the other included installer to be installed on his machine or not. Accordingly, the combined installer should do the necessary tasks. How ...

Re: Waiting for the Updater.exe to finish from the code (C#)
Hi Daniel,
Many thanks for your reply.
The link you provided is helpful to me. Whether there is C# version of this? That would be more ideal to deal with.
Thanks

Waiting for the Updater.exe to finish from the code (C#)
Hi, In my code, I am waiting for the Updater.exe to finish and do some custom tasks after it completes successfully (using Process.WaitForExit()). But the Updater.exe downloads the binary and creates another process (Installer) and wait till it finishes and will end once the installer ends. For me, ...

How to customize "Advanced Installer" label in the dialogs?
Hi,
I have attached an image (InstallDialog.png) where I marked the "Advanced Installer" label that gets shown in the installer dialogs. Is there a way to customize or remove this? I have a professional license.
Thanks in advance.

Know whether installation is successful programmatically
Hi, Is there a way to know whether the installation is successful or not programmatically? I require this info while I am doing silent upgrade (The silent upgrade I am using right now is downloading the EXE/MSI from the cloud and running it in the silent mode in a separate thread). Thanks in advance...
