Hello
I've just moved from ISPro 5 to ISPro 6 and I can't create an uninstaller icon in start menu anymore. I know how to create an icon, but in this version of IS I don't know which uninstalling files to link to the icon. Before it was UNINST+logfile, but now?? It seems to recommend us to use Add/Remove programs window.
If you understand my question, thank you for answering it...

Hello
if you use AddFolderIcon set:
szCommandLine = UNINSTALL_STRING;
This works not for Windows95.

Yeah, that's definitely not gonna work for you.
Set your command line to be the contents of the following registry key value:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\<InstallGUID>\UninstallString
where <InstallGUID> = PRODUCT_GUID.

Is the content of the key value automatically created?
I think not, so how can I get it?

Well, I assumed **ha ha** that you had at least had a working uninstall and an entry in the Add/Remove Program to use as a basis.
As for the how to create this, there a couple different ways, but here's an archaic method that I use during the OnMoving event/function:
There are other ways to, but I don't have time right now to look them up.

Code Sample |
InstallationInfo(@COMPANY_NAME, @PRODUCT_NAME_SHORT, @PRODUCT_VERSION, @PRODUCT_KEY); DeinstallStart("", svObselete, "", 0); RegDBSetItem(REGDB_UNINSTALL_NAME, szUninstallName); // CONTROLS DEFAULT NAME OF ARP ENTRY |

My uninstallation works using the Add/Remove Program.
But nothing is written in the key you said...

In that case, you must still be relying on that old IS 5 method to handle uninstalling of UNINST+logfile or something to that affect.
