Archive: an compiled installer problem


an compiled installer problem
how could i replace files from an compiled output file
or add other files into it ?


Edit the script to add/replace file(s) and recompile is a good and easy method :-)


but i want to let my customers to add(or replace) their own files(logo) into the file i released.
have there any method do that ?
and i tried 7-zip, it only can extract files, but can't add or replace.


Sorry, as far as I know there is not some method to add/replace files into a compiled script (NSIS installer).

Of course bitmaps for welcome/finish page and custom pages could be replaced at runtime.


ok, i got it.
thank you for your help.


Switch CRC check off installer off
Add data at end of SETUP.EXE
At installtime find E.g. a tag in the SETUP.EXE self and extract data after the tag to a specific folder.

If the above does not make sense, forget about it. Where it comes down to, your wished feature is possible but complex to create. But he, isn't that always so with programming thing one wants... ;)
