That's good, I've changed things to prevent it writing out to the registry. It was creating HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Dream Company, which you can delete (was going to delete it in the install but decided against it in case someone has the Dream Company controls installed).

I've uploaded an new fnsetup.exe which includes that fix.

I've fixed just fixed a couple of reported bugettes:

The new project wizard was setting SetOverwrite No, should have been Off and the UninstallIcon was being set to the InstallIcon value.

I've also added a check for update option under the help menu that checks the web site for a new version and downloads if required.

I'll upload it in a few days.

mkeeley,

Are you still developing this?

As I mentioned, I think its one of the best out there... and just wondered if you were going to continue to update it.

TIA,

Kris

Hello Kris

Partly depends on whether the other "New GUI" project gets anywhere and if it does how good it is. If they doesn't start it or it isn't very good then I'll probably do some more updates as time allows.

Thanks Mark.

I'm hoping the new one is crap. 😉

Also, can you tell me if the new 1.8 version of NSIS works ok with the last version of your GUI?

Also, is the last/latest version available from the usual url and/or does it need any separate files or have you already repacked them?

Thanks for the response too.

Yours,

Kris

It just seemed like I might be wasting my time doing much more work on this if they do a good job on that version. Also I was waiting to see if anyone was going to have a bash at making NSIS look a bit more up to date (from the end users point of view), as it stands I can only see myself using it for freeware bits and pieces. The more I'd use it the more work I'd probably do on the front end or a MKII.

Haven't tried 1.8, don't know of any reason why it wouldn't work. The only thing is that, obviously, any new functions or syntax changes need adding to the functions list (not that it stops it from working if you don't).

The latest version, 1.00.07, is at the same URL and it's a complete release. It has a Check For New Version option in the Help menu to check for and download any updates.

OK

Thanks for the info Marc.

Again, keep up the great work, whenever you decide to start again.

Also, what version of NSIS is fully compatible with the latest version of your GUI? (eg: Support the full syntax/functions list that your GUI does)

Cheers,

Kris

Think 1.67 is, haven't kept track of what's changed since that version so depends if later releases were just bug fixes or added/changed functions.
