Hi,
I'm creating an Upgrade tool and I don't want the user to be
able to uninstall it.
I want to remove the application from the Add-Remove panel during the installation, the problem is that I have to reboot the computer after installation because I replace registerd and locked DLLs and the installation can be completed only after reboot.

Hi,
to answer your first question: the user sees Add/Remove entries only in case there's a registry entry
DisplayName="<display_text>"
under
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Currentversion\Uninstall\<your_GUID>
If you have to perform additional tasks after the reboot: just use the OnRebooted() function which will be in effect if InstallShield sets the BATCH_INSTALL variable.
