Talk:Validating $INSTDIR before uninstall
From NSIS Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search
I believe the line before 'StrCmp $R0 "\Documents and Settings" bad' is incorrect:
StrCpy $R0 $INSTDIR "" -22
This should (with the correct character count) be:
StrCpy $R0 $INSTDIR "" -23
I found this out when testing an install to "\Documents and Settings", of course it should have been rejected, but was not, creating a mess! CJS (talk) 19:21, 10 November 2016 (UTC)
In the absence of any challenge to my 10 November 2016 comment, I have now applied the correction to the main page. CJS (talk) 15:29, 5 April 2017 (UTC)
