Hiding command windows
Hi,

My installer script needs to launch couple of batch (.bat) files and some DOS applications. I am using ExecWait for that purpose ( I need to wait till it completes ).

During the installation the installer launches Command prompt (DOS window) which is so annoying. Is there a way I can avoid the command windows and doing those silently in the background with execWait...

Thanks in advance...

This require plug-in, you can use nsExec (included to NSIS distribution) or ExecDos (sourceforge is down now). To use plug-in from archive, extract included dll from zip to your Program Files\NSIS\Plugins folder.
