Execute a command after uninstall

I need my uninstall to run a command after it's removed the files it has installed. [UninstallRun] is no use as I understand it runs BEFORE files are removed. I kind of need a "postuninstall" flag.

Any suggestions as to how I can accomplish the above?

回答1:

See "Uninstall Event Functions" in the documentation. You can use for instance CurUninstallStepChanged when 'CurUninstallStep' is 'usPostUninstall'.

In the same way there is a [Run] section, Inno allows to you to define an [UninstallRun] section to specify which files of your Installer package should be executed on unistall.

For example:

[UninstallRun]
Filename: {app}\Scripts\DeleteWindowsService.bat; Flags: runhidden;

Alternatively, solution proposed by @Sertac Akyuz, which makes use of event functions can be used for tunning a bit more unistalling actions. Here is an example of the usage of CurUninstallStepChanged function among other related functions.
