Hi

I've got a checkbox and some text which I only wish to show on installation. On uninstalling I don't it to be shown.

So I set a condition of 'Hide' when REMOVE=ALL but that didn't work and it was still shown.
Also tried reverse so 'Show' when REMOVE<>ALL but still doens't work

Where am I going wrong??

Try REMOVE="ALL"
or better:
REMOVE~="ALL" ('~' means case insensitive compare)

I'v the same issue even when I use the condition REMOVE~="ALL"
or NOT Installed

If I uninstall using ADD/REMOVE PGM -> no problem : SetupCompleteSuccess does never appear at the end but if I choose uninstall when I run setup.exe again, all the conditions I'v tried to hide the "launch program" and "readme" checkboxes from the SetupCompleteSuccess doesn't work.


Is there a solution ?

Ok thanks to the idea of Stefan Krueger I use a Property Custom Action placed at the end of the UI sequence with the condition "Installed" an that works for me. But I'm curious, why doesn't the "Not Installed" work in the setupcompletesucces behavior when uninstalling from the maintenance dialog?

How did you use the Not Installed condition? In which table or view?

I'v tried to use Installed condition in the Hide condition of a checkbox control in the behavior of the setupcompletesuccess dialog in a Basic MSI project using InstallShield 8. I'v also tried Not Installed in the Show condition but with the same issue.

Now I've placed a new property called HIDECHECKBOXES in the hide condition of my checkbox. This condition is set to 1 in a custom action with the condition Installed. This CA is in the UI sequence between SetupProgress and ExecuteSequence. That way works.

Thx
