The help from this forum was excellent last time so I thouhgt I'd come back and ask for help with two little things. I want to place a checkbox on the final page that says "Run Globulation 2 now" or whatever I want (ie, must be easily editable and able to have language support). If the checkbox is ticked, it loads $INSTDIR\glob2.exe after clicking finish. I belive I'd have to make a custom page for this, which is even more annoying, cause how will that work with language files? Or is there a settings I can add before or onto
!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_FINISH
Something like:
!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_FINISH "Run Globulation 2 now" "$INSTDIR\glob2.exe"
perhaps?
And lastly, when installing, it ask for a language, so what I want, it for it to remember that value however it can, and automaticly use that language when uninstalling (instead of asking for it again).
Any help with these two things would be appreciated 😁
Checkbox to run program on finish and remembering language for uninstaller

There's no need for a custom page, simply use MUI_FINISHPAGE_RUN. See the Modern UI readme for more details about it.
To remember the language, use MUI_LANGDLL_REGISTRY_ROOT and friends. Again, see the MUI readme for more details.

I replaced:
with:!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_FINISH
and I get:!insertmacro MUI_FINISHPAGE_RUN $INSTDIR\glob2.exe
!insertmacro: MUI_FINISHPAGE_RUNAs for using the registery, I already am:
!insertmacro: macro named "MUI_FINISHPAGE_RUN" not found!
