Need help with an advanced launcher that Simeon made.

I was trying to make a special launcher for some apps. The compiler keeps spitting out errors. Here's the source code:

Pop $Unequal...

Yep

And it cant pop it because you haven't specified "Unequal" as a variable.

Yep.

But now it's zeroing the code from lines 0-31 because strreplace wasn't defined?

the problem

I had was that it couldn't find StrRep.nsh.
To solve that, just copy the file called StrRep.nsh from the Sumatra/Other/Source folder to the folder this nsi file is in.

Or you could put it into

Or you could put it into your NSIS\include folder, so it is available with other projects. About the only drawback with that is if there are different versions of some include file with the same name, But I haven't seen that lately.

I think I found it

You have to delete the line silentinstall, otherwise you wont see anything as this line tell the program not to show up. Thats cool with Johns Launchers but no so cool with your Launcher Smile
And you have 2 Outfile.

And StrRep.nsh isn't needed so that's why it is zeroing it out.
