Silent Unistall using INI file for systems variables

[AdyR]

Hi,

I am using Setup Factory 9.5 to create my setup. I would like to use the silent uninstall command line to pass in users options as follows:

"C:\...\Uninstall.exe" "/U:C:\...\uninstall.xml" "/S:C:\...\UnistallOptions.ini"

The UnistallOptions.ini contains the following:

[UninstallValues]
%Delete_All_Settings%=1

In the uninstall Actions - On Post Uninstall I have added:

if _SilentInstall == true then
	deleteSettings = SessionVar.Get("%Delete_All_Settings%");
	SetupData.WriteToLogFile( "deleteSettings = " .. deleteSettings .. "\r\n" );
	if deleteSettings == "1" then
		deleteSettings = true;
	else
		deleteSettings = false;
	end
end

But deleteSettings always = 0. It appears the specified ini file is ignored or I am using the wrong method to get the entry.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
Adrian.

Just a thought - is the file really named "UnistallOptions.ini", instead of "UninstallOptions.ini"? Could be a simple matter of a typo...

:-) It's a typo but in the post. I used copy and paste in the real tests to make sure I had the same spelling for the file and the command line. I also tried with the file called by the same name as in the help file (using copy and paste) just in case the file had to be called "setupvars.ini".

Thanks Ulrich. Do you have any insight of when a fix might be ready as I have a customer breathing down my neck.

Best regards,
Adrian.
