Hello,

I am afraid this dialog is displayed by Windows Installer and cannot be modified.

Re: how to change uninstall prompt message

Hi ,

but when i try this in control panel for various products(For Advanced installer too) the product name is displayed with the prompt message.

Because atleast i need to display the product name instead of the word product.


Thanks

Hello,

Please make sure you have set a name for your product on the Product Details page.
Also, please note that the text you enter on this page, in the Product Name field is the same with the one that is displayed when you click remove in the Add/Remove programs.
If the problem persists, could you please tell us exactly what message do you get when trying to uninstall?

Regards,
Gabriel

Re: how to change uninstall prompt message

Hi,

When I am trying to remove <Application> from control panel its displaying " Are you sure want to remove <Application> from your computer".
I need the same message in Uninstall shortcut in programs. But its displaying " Are you sure want to uninstall this product".


Thanks

Re: how to change uninstall prompt message

Any update on this? With new versions of AdavancedInstaller: and this be modified?
(also looking at: http://www.advancedinstaller.com/forums ... f=1&t=8796
I am hoping that this might be already implemented - true?)
Waiting, Dashut.

Hi,

The message in question is a message displayed by the add/remove programs utility. We have no control over it.
