I assume you are getting the error, when starting the installer, not the uninstaller. When the installer is starting, the {app} is obviously unknown yet. But as you need the import for the uninstaller only, which knows the {app}, you can add the uninstallonly option: procedure uLoadVCLStyle(VClStyleFile: String); external ‘LoadVCLStyleW@{app}\VclStylesInno.dll stdcall uninstallonly’; Though it does … Read more

The output progress pages are designed for providing feedback on longer running operations. But in order for this to be effective you have to be able to keep Inno updated on your current progress by periodically calling methods on this page.

Inno Setup 6 Inno Setup 6 has event attributes features that helps solving … Read more
You may get better answers, if you explain what you need to run the code for. Anyway… One way is to compile the script on command-line from a batch file: powershell -file precompile.ps1 ISCC.exe setup.iss powershell -file postcompile.ps1 (or you can call ISCC.exe from the PowerShell script itself) Another way to run some script before … Read more
Identifier expected Your code would be correct in a Pascal, but it does not compile in Pascal Script. In Pascal, when you want to assign a return value of a function, you either assign the value to a “variable” with a name of the function or to Result variable. So this is correct: function GetRoot: … Read more
The “Select Setup Language” dialog displays before the InitializeSetup event function is called. So you cannot load the skin for the dialog. As a workaround, you can implement your own “language” dialog, and display that from the InitializeSetup. This way the custom dialog will be skinned. Once a user selects a language, you restart the … Read more
It would be rather difficult to update the progress bar, while another process is running. I do not see a point of endeavoring it, as you are unlikely able to tell the progress of the sub-installer, so you won’t know what to update the progress bar to. Except for special cases, when the sub-installer provides … Read more
