Took me a while to figure this out: How does NSIS actually get the files?

The line File xxxx means the installer will copy that file. Where does the installer get it while it is compiling? The file has to be present in the same directory as the .nsi while compiling


From where you you tell it, obviously: File "subfolder\file.ext" File \rootfolder\file.ext File y:\otherdriver\foo.bar (Current directory is the same as you .nsi unless you tell makensis to not change the dir) --Anders 14:21, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
