unable to cancel installation in between installation process
Hi,
during installation,when i click cancel it shows pop up that "Do you want to exit the setup?"
but installation is going on in background,when i click on yes then the installer quits,but,i want to pause the installation when the popup "Do you want to exit the setup?" is showed.for that i have written following code.
!Define XPUI_ABORTWARNING_TEXT "Do you want to exit the setup?" IDYes quit
Function INSTFILELEAVE
strcmp $XPUI_ABORTED 1 0 +2
quit
FunctionEnd
Please tell me what to do to pause installation when the popup is active.

It's explained on that page - did you actually try?
OutFile "test.exe"
>!include "xpui.nsh"
>!include "LogicLib.nsh"
>ShowInstDetails show
AutoCloseWIndow false
>Var UserIsMakingAbortDecision
>Function PauseIfUserIsMakingAbortDecision
${DoWhile} $UserIsMakingAbortDecision == "yes"
DetailPrint "Waiting for user to make decision..."
Sleep 500
${Loop}
>FunctionEnd
>!define PauseIfUserIsMakingAbortDecision `Call PauseIfUserIsMakingAbortDecision`
${Page} InstFiles
Section
GetDlgItem$0 $HWNDPARENT 2
EnableWindow$0 1
DetailPrint "A"
Sleep 1000
${PauseIfUserIsMakingAbortDecision}
DetailPrint "B"
Sleep 1000
${PauseIfUserIsMakingAbortDecision}
DetailPrint "C"
>SectionEnd
>Function .onUserAbort
StrCmp $NOABORTWARNING 1 AbortMe
StrCpy $UserIsMakingAbortDecision "yes"
MessageBox MB_YESNO|MB_ICONQUESTION "Are you sure you want to cancel Setup?" IDNO NoAbort
StrCpy $UserIsMakingAbortDecision "no"
!insertmacro XPUI_USERABORT
NoAbort:
StrCpy $UserIsMakingAbortDecision "no"
Abort
AbortMe:
>FunctionEnd
>!insertmacro XPUI_LANGUAGE "English"
This is only the pausing part. You'll want further code changes to handle things elegantly.. hence that page.

this code works fine but i have used
!Define XPUI_ABORTWARNING
!Define XPUI_ABORTWARNING_TEXT "Do you want to exit the setup?"
so,i cannot use function .OnUserAbort,please tell me is there any way to pause installation when we are using !Define XPUI_ABORTWARNING .

yes-and-no...
you'll have to create your own abort warning, just as in the above example and the examples on the wiki page.
it is possible that you could adjust the ExperienceUI header file to add the pause variable (ExperienceUI\Contrib\XPUI.nsh, just search for .onUserAbort); you'll still have to check for that pause variable in your sections, yourself, though.

If it is anything like MUI it should have an MUI_CUSTOMFUNCTION_ABORT or similar define.

Doesn't seem to be. The only custom functions are for GUI init, GUI end and Pre/Show/Leave for pages. Defining XPUI_ABORTWARNING causes ExperienceUI to run its own .onUserAbort , which itself contains no code for handling additional user-based abort commands.
So setting up one's own .onUserAbort, and not using XPUI_ABORTWARNING, appears to be the road to take there.
