the textbox where the Installation dir. is.
Already possible.

Daniel -

I agree with you (not only with the MS problem 😉 )
But be patient, NSIS is for free and therefore it is really really the great it could be. I had some experiences with WISE and InstallShield and what I can tell is:
1. It is really difficult to get it do what you want (wizard or not!)
2. In comparison to NSIS, 0 ¤ sounds really better than 1200-2500 ¤. For this feature I really can abandon some skinning...
3. Last not least, sometimes there will be place for optical features, I am sure.

So all you developer-guys go on with your great, great and great work:
"When times are coming, take a look back to that thread and make us non-developer happy, with some skinny features"

There is only one thing that Microsoft can do as the best: Making something hard to use with a high price. It's only the fact that so many people use Windows and have never seen Linux, Unix, BeOS or whatever, that they just buy Windows 98, ME, 2000, XP and Longhorn. If more and more people would believe in Linux, for example, no-one would ever want to buy an operation system for such a high price, while it doesn't operate, but crashes.

You NSIS folks are doing great!

Coke Doca Cola: I wonder where you got that Watercolor theme from. I'd like to have it on my WinXP too. 😉

Take a look here
You also need a modified uxtheme.dll, you can get it and a description for it here (look for "Installation Instructions of UxTheme.dll" on the page)
