Hey guys!

Not sure if this is the right place, but I have a question about modifying an Installshield installation.

Basically, the installation installs something (duh :p) and makes a desktop shortcut which is something of the sorts "Startprogram". I want to rename that short cut so it would put it as "StartProgram" (capital 'P'). Shouldn't be so hard, just don't know what to modify and how.

Thanks in advance,
Leo Natan

I think the script is in the *.INX file; search in it for that string and change it with a hexa editor. (In newer Installshield packages, files are encrypted, though, so you won't be able to edit them directly.)

Any idea how to decrypt it? I really don't want to build a new installation over this...

Edit: The version of the Setup.exe is 11.5, so can I edit the installation in Installshield Delux 11.5/12?
