One more question.
While testing my setup I notice that there is no dialogue box for a reboot after uninstalling my software.
How are the variables for a dialogue box for a reboot after uninstalling my software?
Can anyone help?

The screens for the uninstall process are fixed, therefore the best you can really do is use a Show Message Box or a Yes/No Message box to notify the user that a reboot is required once the uninstall is complete and they click the Close button.

To actually activate the reboot, you can set the variable %DoReboot% to TRUE on the After Uninstalling tab. That will cause their system to be rebooted once they click the Close button on the uninstall dialog.

Hope that helps.

Why is it fixed? Is there a possibility to change this in a next version or in a patch?

Since adding additional screens to the uninstall is quite a major change, I don't think it will be something added in a subrelease.

However having more available screens for the uninstall is definitely something that we will be looking at for Setup Factory 7.0. It's currently listed in our suggestions database.
