Download NSIS 2.27

A few days ago, the Nullsoft Scriptable Install System development team released a new version with 2.27 as the version number. NSIS can be used to easily create installation packages. After creating a script, the program then creates a compact installer, in which, for example, uninstall options can also be given. For more information, we refer you to this page and on this page several screenshots can be admired. The announcement and list of changes from version 2.27 are as follows:

This release, NSIS 2.27, is a quick-fix release that addresses a bug introduced in the last version, 2.26, that caused $PROGRAMFILES and $COMMONFILES to translate into random strings in the uninstaller. It also includes a couple of minor fixes and improvements.

Major Changes

• Fixed a bug introduced in 2.26 that made $PROGRAMFILES and $COMMONFILES unavailable in the uninstaller

Minor Changes

• Disable the X button on InstallOptions pages when CancelEnabled is 0
• Fixed incomplete MessageBox usage line (bug #1709460)

Build System

• Added TOOLSET option to allow selection of specific build tools (eg scons TOOLSET=mingw)
