Dear All,

I have just downloaded NSIS and I am attempting to publish my application with it due to the fact that the "One-Click" default installer package that comes with VS2010 is not quite up to it (I have looked at WIX, but this was a bit too much for me to learn as I need a quick fix).

One problem with NSIS is the ability to install componants/Prerequisites that I need for my C# application to run, i.e. Microsoft .NET 4.0 (I know how to deal with this one), and Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks 10.0.0.0. The latter I don't have a clue how to deal with by way of an automatic download with NSIS script. Can any one help me with this issue?

Thanks very much for your time,

Nick

Hi
It can be tough to start with NSIS, but do not hang in!
We cannot create whole installer for you, you need to read a lot of wiki and search this forums 🙂

.NET framework was mentioned here several times, there are also several topic on wiki: http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Category...tion_Functions

With PowerPacks I have no experiences, but for downloading from internet you can use several plugins: InetC, NSISdl,InetLoad ot other: http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Category:Plugins
