Show UserName in Multiuser Install Mode

NROLF0016 · 8th May 2020, 15:27

Hi *

There is a setting MULTIUSER_INSTALLMODEPAGE_SHOWUSERNAME
which appends the current user name in the radio button selection.

No matter what I do I always end up with "Install just for me"

What do I make wrong?

This feature only exists in v3.06.

Grab the updated file from https://sourceforge.net/p/nsis/code/...nsh?format=raw if you can't wait for the next release but I'm not sure if it is 100% compatible with v3.05, you might have to just copy the relevant username bits to your existing header file. Specifically, you need parts of the updated Function "${PRE}" function.

I haven't tried this feature myself, but just to be sure: are you compiling NSIS yourself? It appears that r7160, where this feature was added, was after NSIS v3.05 was released.

So far I am running/compiling using 3.05.

What is the release schedule for 3.06??

End of July hopefully.

Just grabbed the upated Multiuser.nsh file and replaced the original one.

Works perfectly.

Thank you for your help.
