display start menu folder
Hi,

I could not find the syntax for this on the forum:

How do I open a folder of the start menu and display it after the installation program has finished?

thnx...

Function .onInstSuccess
  ExecShell "open" "$SMPROGRAMS\MyProg"
FunctionEnd

should do the trick. You can also use the MUI's MUI_FINISHPAGE_SHOWREADME because it uses ExecShell. Read the MUI's readme to know how to change the text "Show readme" to something like "Open start menu" if you choose this way.

Use ExecShell.

edit: kichik is too fast :D
