Rename /REBOOTOK and long filenames
Hi NSIS gurus :),
I searched in the forums a little bit and I understand that "Rename /REBOOTOK" uses "wininit.ini" and the [Rename] section to rename files on reboot under Windows 98 (there is no other way anyway, right?).
In my installer I have to upgrade some EXE files that have long file names (with spaces), for example:
C:\Program Files\Something\Hey Dude.exe
What happens when renaming on reboot under windows 98 if the file was in use is that it gets renamed to:
C:\Program Files\Something\HeyD~1.exe
...which messes up the shortcuts I had setup for it in the start menu.
I understand the 8.3 limitation is on wininit.ini, not NSIS but is there a known workaround I can use to fix this?
Thanks a lot in advance.
