@Cesar:
I've found something strange.

If you install with diskspan and CIU asks for next archive, it seems that some files will be unpacked after this message pop up.

Installer was at 15,7% if the "Next Disc" message pop up, a few seconds later it was on 16,1% and unpacked some files. It seems to be a delay or something.

I did not realize that.
Are files also extracted, or only the percentage (including progress bar) changed?
Possibly this occurs inside some of the libraries (Isdone.dll, Unarc.dll, or DiskSpan.dll).
This bug is only visible using diskspan, because UltraArc does not pause progress while installing (does not request part .002, etc).
I think this is not so important to correct.

The progress of CIU I think very wrong as it is.
Example: If you put 2 ARC files. The first one with 1 MB and the second with 1 GB.
When extracting the first one (1 MB) will already be showing 50% progress and the remaining time will be equal to the time it took to extract the first 1 MB.
This could be fixed by adding a Size (Size of extracted files)
It would add up all the size and divide by the amount of files.

//Setup.ini (DiskSpan File)
[ExtractSettings]
ArcFile1=Data1.bin.001;DestDir:{app};Type:ARC;Disk:1; Size:1200;

//Records.ini (UltraArc or DiskSpan File)
[Record1]
Type=Freearc_Original
Source={src}\Data1.bin.001
Output={app}
Disk=1
Size=1200

Source={src}\Data1.bin.001

Disk=1
Size=1200

Please make this change.

can use "Progress" instead of "SIZE".
For example

ArcFile1=Data1.bin.001;DestDir:{app};Type:ARC;Disk:1; Progress:20
ArcFile2=Data2.bin.001;DestDir:{app};Type:ARC;Disk:1; Progress:60
ArcFile2=Data3.bin.001;DestDir:{app};Type:ARC;Disk:1; Progress:20
20+60+20=100

It would not work.
UltraArc makes splits automatically when file is larger than disk (At least old version of UA).
Size will work fine in all cases, including the items on the task page
Size will be optional. If not put will work as before.
It would be simple to add Size to the UA because you just put the FindFirst function after you complete and add the values to the Records.ini

For now the script with this Size function is not ready yet.
Version 3.0.0.0.u3 does not have the Size function.
Soon I will post a beta script of version 3.0.0.1 with the new features in the interface, including the Size function (I'm having a little time now).
But answering your question: (Version 3.0.0.1 only)
If you use 10 bin files created with diskspan, you only need to enter the name of the .bin.001 file and enter the size of the total sum of the parts.
If you use division of UltraArc you will need to inform the size of each part and each key splited and the final size of the sum of the size of the files in the key relative to the merged file.

Disk=1

I tried to add this to setup.ini but still does not work.
I have a "data1.bin" which is 160MB and a data2.bin.001 which is 21.4GB.
data1.bin goes to 50% in progress bar.

I used these methos:

[ExtractSettings]
ArcFile1=Data1.bin;DestDir:{app};Type:ARC;Disk:1;Size:600;
ArcFile2=Data2.bin.001;DestDir:{app};Type:ARC;Disk:1;Size:31500;

or

[ExtractSettings]
ArcFile1=Data1.bin;DestDir:{app};Type:ARC;Disk:1; Size:160;
ArcFile2=Data2.bin.001;DestDir:{app};Type:ARC;Disk:1; Size:21400;

or 

[ExtractSettings]
ArcFile1=Data1.bin;DestDir:{app};Type:ARC;Disk:1; Progress:5;
ArcFile2=Data2.bin.001;DestDir:{app};Type:ARC;Disk:1; Progress:95;

I even used "Size=**" in Records.ini but still didn't work.

[KaktoR]

Files are extracted too (but only if you have many small files within the archive). But I can't tell you if the files actually are really extracting or just a delay is CurFile

---

Yes true. But I think yener did it so to keep things simple.

Size should be just optional in my opinion.

[Cesar82]

I have posted a test preview of the checklistbox that I will add to CIU in the CIU Dev group.
You members of the CIU Dev group test and give feedback and suggestions on how it looks better.

[pakrat2k2]

for UWP games do you use both setup.ini & Setup_EXTERNAL.ini ( named correctly ? )
as its the only file that has UWP. Also extract settings arent needed..

thanks

[KaktoR]

Setup_EXTERNAL.ini is just meant for an override (like the old setup's where you could place Setup.ini file next to setup.exe to override the [ExtractSettings] options).

If you save UWP settings to Setup.ini, Setup will read this settings as long as no Setup_EXTERNAL.ini is present besides Setup.exe. If Setup_EXTERNAL.ini is present besides Setup.exe, Setup will take settings from Setup_EXTERNAL.ini.

[Cesar82]

If I understood correctly, pakrat2k2 wants to know if it uses Setup.ini (External) with a section, it is necessary to have the information contained in the other sections too;

If this is the question:
The information you need (and if it is supported in external setup.ini) you can add it to the external INI.
If this information does not exist in the external INI, it will read the internal INI.

Except the [Registry#] section, if there is [Registry1], it will ignore all the internal INI registry sections.
I will change [Registry#] to the same default at the next update (Read external first, and if not, read the internal)

[zirkhaki]

is it possible to automatically launch an exe file with "Run as Admin" after installation.
I've done this normally, but I want to do it with run as admin.
specifically I want to run InstallApp.exe for UWP games.
still I am unsuccessful to install a UWP game and also make a shortcut for it. so I just want to run that exe and play the game from Start Menu.

Because you do not register the UWP game using the [UWPGame] section of setup.ini, instead of using InstallApp.exe to register the game?
- By doing so your shortcuts will be placed on the desktop and the PlayButton (if exists) of the autorun page will work properly.
