onVerifyInstDir and silent mode
I currently use .onVerifyInstDir to make sure it's the correct directory (it checks for winamp.exe). However, when I use Silent Mode, it doesn't use .onVerifyInstDir to verify. It just installs anywhere. How can I fix this?

Thanks in advance,

Use IfSilent in .onInit and verify it there (aswell).

Tried it, but when you use /D= as a parameter, it also won't work.

Full working example code is below. Command line to run the program:

Test.exe /S /D=C:\Program Files

OutFile Test.exe

Function .onInit
  IfSilent 0 +3
    MessageBox MB_OK "Silent. Install dir: $INSTDIR"
    Goto +2
  MessageBox MB_OK "Not silent."
FunctionEnd
