Customizing Uninstaller
I am trying to add a checkbox to the uninstConfirm page (classic UI) but I'm having a hard time finding the correct way to do this. It looks like I can use the SendMessage command in the show function to do this, but I'm not very familiar with windows programming. Any pointers?

In case there's a better suggestion, what I'm trying to accomplish is to allow the user to preserve the registry settings when the application is uninstalled, or to remove them completely. I don't care for the message box approach, as this requires an extra click every time. The checkbox approach, similar to the components page of the installer, seemed like a good way to do this. It would be nice if I didn't have to add another page, though.


You should add a custom page instead.


Is the best way to do this to use the NSD functions?
