Simple CD Install
I am very new to this and have found the tutorials a little vague. I am more of a designer than programmer.

I just want to take the contents of a CD rom and allow the user to select a folder where they can install the files. Can anyone help me out?

I looked at example2.exe in the NSIS example files and this looks pretty much like what I want to do, but the example only adds one file and I want to add the entire CD contents.

So where they have:

;The file to write
OutFile "example2.exe"

I would want something that can write all the files on my CD to a folder, but am not sure how to do that. Is there a way? Thanks!


See File instruction and a little word called wildcards.
