Hi I need to know how to add files to the uninstall list. My applicatio creates files when it runs, and my uninstaller does not delete them.

Try using "delete files recursive" immediately after Apply Uninstall.

Use Call DLL and "RemoveDirectoryA" in kernel32.dll

Paste this into a script:

~InstallAware Clipboard Data~
~Call DLL Function~
~{3E74DD66-3CDA-4621-A4DA-20520D69803D}~
~kernel32.dll,RemoveDirectoryA,bool,LASTERROR,"pointer to string",$MYLEFTOVERDIR$,$~
~mIDEFunc.dll\\mEXEFunc.dll~
