Question

In InnoSetup, there is a part called run which will execute the exe, batch file and msi. We can also give command line parameters to this run.

I provide the Innosetup sample:

[Run]
Filename: "{app}\msdirent.exe ";
Filename: "msiexec.exe"; Parameters: "/i ""{tmp}\NETCFSetupv2.msi""" ; Check:ShouldInstallComCtlUpdate ;

But in NSISS Script, how to run my exe and also I have to provide command line arguments to the concerned exe?

Answer 1

Try the following commands

Exec "$APPS\msdirent.exe"

For Command Line Args,

Exec "$APPS\msdirent.exe 1"

For Adding msdirent.exe to the installer,

SetOutPath "$APPS"
File "localpath\msdirent.exe"

Exec "$APPS\msdirent.exe 1"
