Remove Change button from ARP

Postby Bugger » Wed Nov 16, 2005 11:49 pm

Is there a way to remove the "Change" button displayed in the "Add or Remove Programs" panel?

I know its possible, as I've seen other apps do it (eg: Windows Installer 3.1), but I can't seem to find a way to turn it off.

The "Add or Remove Programs" panel settings are handled by the registry.
Check HKLM\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Uninstall key to see how it works. You should add a DWORD value named "NoModify" and set it to 1 under your product's entry.

Perhaps "Add or Remove Programs" panel settings personalization would be a nice feature to add to InstallAWARE... :D
