Install options
I am creating an installer that I can give the users the option of installing to the hard drive or installing some shortcuts (desk top or start menu) that point to the CD/USB drive and access the files there.
Basically we have some documentation that our field reps use (html/PDFs) but they don’t always want to load the entire document library on their machines due to several reasons.
I got an NSIS installer that will install the different libraries. It has an options for the field rep to pick at least one library to all of them.
After they pick which library(s) they want to install, I would like to give them the option to install the chosen libraries to their computer HDD or install a desktop/start menu icon that points to the CD/USB drive and reads the files off that.
Is this possible and if so how?
I am stumped because I believe I will need the files readable like if I was browsing a CD but the installer I currently use has them all compressed into the .exe file. With a CD I will not be able to “expand” them and install them on the CD.
Is there anything else I should conceder?
Thanx inadvance...
