Run program question

[NewsArchive]

I want to give a customer the ability to run a program after the install,
but I want the checkbox to come up unchecked at first. How do I do it?

Thanks,
Abe

You have several different options. For example, the attached one (see
screenshot).

Or you can develop your own solution (see "Run Check Box 1.sb7" in the
Examples Package)

Friedrich,

I have tried this (see image), and it does not run the program. If I check
the checkbox to run the program once the installation exits, then I get a
checked checkbox that the user needs to uncheck before hitting finish. What
I'm trying to do is get the checkbox, but un-checked by default. Then if
the customer wants to run the program, they would check the box and hit
finish.

Regards,
Abe

Be sure that you check the OS version and if it is Vista/Win7 then you need
to use the SB option to run it non-elevated. If it is XP, you can run it
as is.

Otherwise your data written to the Registry or any user locations will NOT
end up where you want it to be since the installer is running elevated.

Thanks for the advise. I always use the option to run not elevated.
