Need help using NSIS
Hello,

Its the first time using NSIS,
i need to do the following using NSIS to be automated:

1- I've a zip file downloaded from Internet, includes Read me and ٍsetup.exe
2- I want to extract this zip file and run setup.exe file and add configuration file to the package. "setup.exe, Read me and configuration file"
3- Then the first out-put appear to the one who will run the script is the out-put of file.exe
4- After installation is finish, The configuration file should be copied to EX: C:\\Desktop\

1-use inetc NSISdl or similar plugin to download zip file from Internet.
2a-unpack it with Zip plug-in [or similar-supporting .zip compression] into $TEMP folder.
2b-launch setup.exe using nsExec, Exec, ExecWait or similar command from NSIS
2c-repack configuration file into package using the same plug-in as in 2a
3-I do not undestand this point, pleas clearify it.
4-use CopyFile command to copy file you wish into folder you wish.

We can help you with any problem, but do not expect we will write whole script for you :)
