Show a custom window before INST_FILES
Hi,

I display a custom window to get information from the user.

Is it possible to display this window before the installation and not after?

This code works

!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_INSTFILES
Page custom PageIP

but not this one:

Page custom PageIP
!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_INSTFILES

In the second case, the custom page is not shown.

My problem is that I would like to display the variables I get from this custom pages in the detailprint.

Read this topic about readme. Create own readme file in instalation and show.

I don't understand.
What I would like is to show a custom page BEFORE the page INST_FILES.
And it doesn't work tha way it is

I finally found a way to show a progress when I start my services even if the details panel is not available.

For each service, I used the header text to show the progress:

!insertmacro MUI_HEADER_TEXT "Start services" "[1/3] MyFirstService"
nsExec::ExecToLog "net START service1"
!insertmacro MUI_HEADER_TEXT "Start services" "[2/3] MySecondService"
nsExec::ExecToLog "net START service2"
!insertmacro MUI_HEADER_TEXT "Start services" "[3/3] MyThirdService"
nsExec::ExecToLog "net START service3"
