Waiting for a process to finish...
Hi!
I miss a function in NSIS that let me wait for a process to finish. Often when executing a silent install the execwait does not do the job since the installer starts a new process to install the software and returns from the initial process.
Anyone who have an idea how to obtain this?
It depends which installer/process it is. If it's InstallShield see this thread. If it's another type of installer see the link in that thread, it might help.
thanks
Thanks for the info...unfortanely the /sms parameter does not work as expected. Figured out that start /w .... had a tendency to do the job :-)
