Archive: Next is gone?


Next is gone?
On this one computer, (Windows 2000 Professional) I go through all my screens, and when it gets to the screen that asks which directory I would like to install it into, the next button is grayed out, and I cant figure out why.

As horrible as it sounds, I hope it is something stupid, that makes me look dumb, but is an wasy fix.


maybe $INSTDIR requires a certain .exe in the directory. also check if the path is correct, i remember having some problems with old scripts ("C\Program Files" instead of "C:\Program Files").


Or there is not enough space available on the current drive.


thanks for all your help, but as an FYI, it has installed fine on about 70 other computers, from 98 to XP, just this one computer it didnt work on, is their a way to specify how much disc space is needed, or I should look into that.

How would I say how much disc space is required for the install?


The required and available disk space is displayed on the screen.


Yes I understand that I meant, is there a line of code that I could put in the nsi file and that would become the required amount of space needed?


It automatically calculates that based on the size of the included files. You can modify it using AddSize.

You can loop over all selected sections and sum up their sizes using SectionGetSize.
