We are working on converting the wiki to a static website controlled by markdown files in https://github.com/nsis-community. You can already see there how plug-ins will be posted. The end-user interface will still be a website but with a fresh coat of paint. Come meet us at Discord to talk about it.

Description

Here is a function for anyone who needs to install components into Borland Delphi and therefore requires it to be NOT RUNNING... but of course we do not want to force Delphi to exit without saying at least something to the user...
