    Resolved Deploying multiple applications with inno

    Hi,

    I am using inno to deploy my application.
    As part of the installation, after my application has been installed, I also need to deploy a third party application which has its own installer.

    I have got this working by adding the third party install file to the [Run] section.

    I am now trying to smarten up the install process and want to know if it is possible to warn the user before the third party application is installed.

    i.e. Put up a message that says "XYZ Application will now be installed" The user would then click OK or Next or whatever.

    Any help greatly appreciated as always.

    Sure you can. Have you looked at the help documentation for Inno Setup yet? You can even have the user select if it should be installed or not and have the default be install.

    Thanks for the reply.

    I have looked in the documentation but could not find the section on how to do this.
    I will look again.
    Do you have a couple of lines of example script which show how to do this?

    Look for Tasks

    [Task]
    Name: yourtaskname; Description: Your Description; GroupDescription: your install group:; Flags: unchecked

    [Run]
    Filename: yourfilename; Description: your description; Flags: nowait postinstall skipifsilent; WorkingDir: {app}; Task: yourtaskname
