Urgent: When using lzma compression no % progress is shown in install page.
When I use default compression I set ShowInstDetails to "show" and in the install page a percentage progress is shown. This is very useful when extracting large files. In this case progress bar does not move but the % progress shows to the user that installation is in progress.

When I use lzma compression no % progress is shown and in the case of large files the user might think that the installer does nothing.

Any suggestion?


Works fine for me with zlib (the default compression), lzma and solid lzma compression. Can you point to an example?


% progress for each file is shown if used non solid compression. Yes?


Percents not appeares in 'SetCompress off' mode, but any case you can use this patch for big files (see nocomp.nsi sample).
Edited: Oups, old thread :)
