Thanks buddy.

You're Welcome bud.

Dear razor, can you explain for me what are the first 3 zeros for?
in ISArcExtract there is 2 zeros while in ISExec there is 3
or i f you don't know what they are for at least can you tell me which one stands for process percentage?

[Razor12911]

the second zero from the left defines progress percentage.
first is for components
third is for SpecifiedProcessTime

EDIT: Got it, thank you

[danswano]

Because the time and accurate percentage is not known properly to IS it jumps from 50% to 150% after the ISExec is done, how to avoid this?
I know that there is a feature related to records.inf but i don't know how to use or even create the right records.inf file.
Can you help me please?

[Razor12911]

total progress is 100, so just split the current process.

Sure dude but it's not working for me this time.

[Razor12911]

I see, ISExec progress percentage don't want to work.
I also don't know how to use records.inf.

But I have a solution to this.

don't set progress for all archives, leave it to zero

add this

Var
ArcInt: integer;

begin
ArcInt:=3 //defines the number of archives involved in process.

ISDoneProgressBar1.Max:= ISDoneProgressBar1.Max * ArcInt
end;

Put these lines under procedure CurStepChanged(CurStep: TSetupStep);

[danswano]

Can you please explain what these codes can do to the overall progress?

[Razor12911]

post your entire CurStepChanged procedure.

ArcInt:=3 //defines the number of archives involved in process, You can use {#ArcNumber}.
ISDoneProgressBar1.Max:= ISDoneProgressBar1.Max * ArcInt

[danswano]

Got this error when installation starts:

[Razor12911]

fix this

ExpandConstant('{c m:Extracted}');

space of cm in between

to this

ExpandConstant('{cm:Extracted}');
