Not much can be said without any details, but you're probably talking about this:

Sorry for the late reply but there's been something wrong with my account since i applied... i didn't get no email activation...

Could someone help me with that? :-) cheers.

also, u see my installer is like this. I'm trying to delete/uninstall everything that's been installed on logout/reboot.

I don't noe how to do that yet so i'm asking ppl to uninstall it manually. but it doesn't delete the parent folders.

i tot of doing it manually by deleting the parent directories regardless of where it was installed but that's pretty scary cuz some of my users install it to the desktop!

so need help. lol..

TIA. :D

not talking about the "problem" with nsis 2.08 though... well, not exactly. :p


I've split this thread from the older thread, as it seems unrelated.

Back to the problem, more details are still needed. The script would be very helpful. Which Windows version you're testing on would also help. For example, RMDir /REBOOTOK won't delete directories on reboot on Windows 98.

As for e-mail notifications, you won't get them unless you login. If you can't login because you didn't get the activation e-mail, I'll need your login name to send you another one. If you didn't even register, that's the problem. Guests can't get e-mail notifications.


argh!!! my account still doesn't work! arggh!! can someone help me?

anywayz, basically, i want to delete everything that i created during the install process. if it wasn't created during the install process, then i don't want to delete it.
