I'm in no way qualified to say anything on this but I'm fairly sure you don't need to put component files in records.ini

Component settings should be in settings.ini file.
There is also a helpfile for settings.ini.

[pratikpatel8982]

I wanted to ask if I can add multiple music files like background images. For example:

For background images in settings.ini
[Background]
//---------------Setup\Background\#.jpg
Enable=1
InstallBGDuration=5000
InstallBGAnimation=1
BGAfterInstall=1

Similarly for music:
[Music]
Enable=1
MusicFile=Setup\Music\Track#.mp3
OR ALTERNATIVELY, 
MusicFile=Setup\Music\*.mp3 [To Load all mp3 files]
MusicVolume=10

So if I can use Setup\Music\Track#.mp3 and then in the "Music" folder, place files with name:

Track1.mp3
Track2.mp3
Track3.mp3
Track4.mp3
Track5.mp3
Track6.mp3
...

Does this require code change??
And one more thing, does it loop music like FG Repacks?
If it's not possible, then I will merge all the tracks into a single music file.

I know that there is the task= but as it is not in the Setting.ini, I had to adapt myself with the Component1 etc ... but I look at the help file, there is nothing on

You have to add the whole component thing in settings.ini to be able to choose which component to install. Just copy everything starting from [Component] and paste it at the end of settings.ini
Also you forgot to add this line for each component:

Component#.File=(The archive linked for the component)
For example:
Component1.File=Component1.arc

You have to add it for each component to make it work properly.

yes, I removed it because the setup I want to choose for installation is in components2.file and components3.file
the concern is that in the record, I do how, I understood correctly that you tell me to do nothing, but unfortunately, it installs me everything every time and I would like to choose in the pack, the game and the language of the game that I want to install, for example, commando beyond line and commando 2 without installing the others

I don't know if I'm explaining myself well
what I want to do, is therefore if I choose to install commandos 2, is that it installs me this version as well as this file

[Record5]
Type=Freearc_Original
Source={src}\Setup3FR.cab
Output={app}\SteamApps\common\Commandos 2 Men of Courage\
Disk=1

[Record13]
Type=Freearc_Original
Source={src}\Setup3STEAM.cab
Output={app}\SteamApps\

I would test more or less what you tell me because they don't laugh to put in the record.ini as in CIU which was for me Task = 2 for example, I doubt that it works for me, but I have nothing more to lose

another thing, to uninstall a backup, is there a line to put in setting.ini?

I don't know if the ASIS 7.2.2 I have here is the latest version, but from what I found in the code it doesn't have any reading of key Component= or Comp= in records.ini

The installation is done normally from the Records.ini files (like Main Game).
After the main extraction, the ASIS configuration is checked in the [ComponentsSettings] section, key Component#.File= (starting with 1) and if any of them are checked and the file exists, it will be extracted.
NOTE: For the data file to work, it must be in the same path as Setup.exe, so if it is burned to disk or ISO it must be on the last disk, otherwise (folders) it must be next to Setup.exe.
Component#.File should only be the name of the component or <SubDir>\<DataFile> in relation to {src} (Setup.exe directory)

The Component will always be extracted to {app} so if you need to put the files in subfolders they must be in subfolders before compression.

If you understand a little bit, see the code below the component extraction process done after installing the main game.

    {Unpack selected components}
    #if UseComponents == "1"
      if ComponentsPageAvai then
      begin
        for I := 0 to GetArrayLength(CompIndexList) - 1 do
          if ComponentsList.Checked[CompIndexList[I]] then
          begin
            ComponentFile := ExpandConstant('{src}\' + GetIniString('ComponentsSettings', 'Component' + IntToStr(CompIndexList[I]) + '.File', '', ExpandConstant('{tmp}\Settings.ini')));
            if (ISDoneError = False) and FileExists(ComponentFile) then
              if not ISArcExtract(0, 0, ComponentFile, ExpandConstant('{app}'), '', false, '', ExpandConstant('{tmp}\arc.ini'), ExpandConstant('{app}'), false) then
                ISDoneError := True;
          end;
      end;
    #endif

                ISDoneError := True;
          end;
      end;
    #endif

So if I put this, it should extract the components2.file if I choose the FRENCH version
The components1 I left empty because it is to deselect if I do not want to install it, suddenly I guess I have a problem with setting.ini

Component1.Name=Commandos Behind Enemy Lines
Component1.File=
Component1.Size=
Component1.Level=1
Component1.Exclusive=0
Component1.Checked=1
Component1.Enabled=1

Component2.Name=French
Component2.File=Setup1FR.cab
Component2.Size=930
Component2.Level=0
Component2.Exclusive=1
Component2.Checked=0
Component2.Enabled=1

Component3.Name=English
Component3.File=Setup1.cab
Component3.Size=930
Component3.Level=0
Component3.Exclusive=1
Component3.Checked=0
Component3.Enabled=1

I will see and try to find a solution for it, but there is also the problem of registry.iss, suddenly, how do I put componets for the one I chose to install in relation to the settings.ini?
yes, the version I am using is 7.2.2a

Component settings was made only for single game, not for collection of games.

So without code editing, your goal can not be reached here.

I don't know enough about code
Thank you anyway for helping me and responding

[alucard1973]

well, after testing, it decompresses the files that I select, but here is my problem, I cannot use the record.ini, otherwise it installs all the game files for me, if I don't put it, it lets me know. install well what I ask, but my problem therefore comes from the installation directory.
Can we add, I suppose it's here, a command (if you can help me because I don't know much about it) to put for example "components1.Dir = {sd} \ steamapps \ common \ test1" in settings.ini

#if UseComponents == "1"
procedure ComponentsOnCheck(Sender: TObject);
var
I: Integer;
begin
ComponentsSize := 0;
for I := 0 to GetArrayLength(CompIndexList) - 1 do
if ComponentsList.Checked[CompIndexList[I]] then
ComponentsSize := ComponentsSize + GetSizeBytes(GetIniString('ComponentsSettings', 'Component' + IntToStr(CompIndexList[I]) + '.Size', '0', ExpandConstant('{tmp}\Settings.ini')), ComponentsSize);
ComponentsDiskSpaceLabel.Caption := FormatDiskSpaceLabel(SetupMessage(msgComponentsDis kSpaceMBLabel), ComponentsSize + GetSizeBytes(GetIniString('Settings', 'Size', '0', ExpandConstant('{tmp}\Settings.ini')), ComponentsSize));
ComponentsDiskSpaceLabel.Refresh;
end;

Hello! Is it possible for ASIS to decompress archives with a password? (Not someone elses, archives, archives created by myself with a password) I can't seem to find anything about it in settings.ini or the script.

end;

I am supposing that you want to install each component in a different folder inside the {app} directory but so far I haven't found such feature in this script.
If you want to install in specific directory just compress the files with the folder structure. For example, you want to install component 1 inside {app}\Component1\
You can't specify it. For this to work, you need to pack file with folder structure. For example, in component1.arc:

Component 1\file1,file2......file10

So after extraction, it will automatically extract inside {app}\component1\file1,file2......file10.
