Adding an uninstall command to the installation script

The uninstall program is placed in the default directory and a hidden file, Uninstall.aic, is created that captures the changes made during the installation. Successive installations modify the Uninstall.aic file so that the uninstall program returns the system to the state before the first installation.

To include an uninstall command in a build package

1.

In the left pane of the builder options, select BASE INSTALLATION and then click UnInstall to include an uninstall package.

2.

Check Remove Groups During Uninstall to remove any program groups that were created during the installation.

Use this option cautiously as some users might select an existing group for the installation, or add files to the group after installation.

3.

Type the name for the uninstall in the space provided.

This name appears on-screen when the uninstall runs.

4.

Click Add to record the options that you have chosen.
