Update progress dialog status text

Fri Feb 05, 2021 2:39 pm

Hi,

Thank you for an awesome product.

My installer has grown to be quite huge. it executes many custom actions (C#) during the installation execution stage. Is it possible to update the progress dialog status text from my custom actions so it's easier to follow what is happening?

Thanks,

Regards
Jan

Hello Jan,

Thank you for your kind words!

In order to achieve what you want, please have a look over the "Update action text and progressbar with C#/DTF custom action" where my colleague Bogdan has explained how you can update a progress bar from a C# custom action.

Hope it helps!

Best regards,
