Putting the Set-Up File In Control panel
I am Developing a set-Up using NSIS.I am Created the SetUp.exe and UninstallSetup.exe for installation and un-installation of the application.

Now the problem I am facing is how I able to put this file in the Control could panel So that one could able to find that the software is installed. And also how could I able to invoke the Remove method from Control panel so that the user could able to uninstall the software.

Can anyone help me?

Do you mean Add/Remove programs? Check the example scripts.

Sounds like you're installing a 32bit program on 64bit windows. It keeps 32bit stuff separate.

try looking at "SetRegView". That changes which registry (32bt vs 64) will be used for the registry commands.
