Let's ask it now

He .. I got this question

I allready finished my installer a loooong time ago .. but I want some improvements in it.

I made a codecpack but several people are complaining that they cant run some video files annymore . that's becuase they have registrated the 2 of the same files. So that's why I want this in my installer:

- A search engine.. It must look for specific files and delete those files.

Is this possible without making a plugin ? thanks

Well it's not pretty....

Search for the specific files using the dos "dir" command via exec and direct the output to be used as input for the "delete" command.

I was trying to figure out a way to invoke and use the search utility in explorer.exe, and have it remove the files silently; however, I couldn't get this to work.

Hope you come up with something faster!

And what about search the Archive for scripts to solve your problem? There has some scripts about this subject.
