For MUI 1.8/2.0(+), may work with no MUI.nsh but will need extra coding (Not supported)


This was simply created to make making an uninstaller easier and more convenient. It is equipped with shortcuts to every registry feature you can make for Window XP's Add/Remove programs menu. Below will be examples of how to include it into your script. Just copy the sheet below (where designated) to a new empty file and place it in the directory "..\NSIS\Include\" as EasyUninstall.nsh (IT MUST HAVE THAT NAME! Location can vary, but you must use the '!AddIncludeDir "location\of\EasyUninstall.nsh"' before any commands for EasyUninstall are added!).


  1. Create a new text file in the folder "..\NSIS\Include"
    1. It must be named "EasyUninstall.nsh"
      1. (NO QUOTES!)
  2. Copy all the text in the box below into the file.
  3. Save it as "EasyUninstall.nsh" (as explained in Step 1.1)

Using EasyUninstall

Easy uninstall uses unique definitions, macro names and functions to attempt to not contradict other functions, however, this may occur. There are a few unique things about this you'll have to keep in memory.

  1. First off, when using MUI.nsh or MUI2.nsh, you must define the language after including EasyUninstall.nsh (and configuring it's settings.)
  2. All options are optional. If you do not use ${ProductID} [name] then it will default ${_ProductID} to $(^Name).
    1. However, ${CONFIGUREUNINSTALL} must be included always after !include EasyUninstall.nsh

Examples will be displayed below.
