Mephisto,

I ran the installer and noticed the following things:

• I told it to locate SE4.EXE and of course it found the wrong installation so I had to browse for it anyway
• I watched as it installed and when it got to 100% it just sat there. I waited and waited and waited and waited and waited. Finally I alt-tabed to do some work in another window while I waited. I worked and waited and worked and waited. I alt-tabed back and it was still stuck. Finally while alt-tabing I noticed a dos window in the list. I switched to this window and it was xcopy saying it was done copying files. So I closed it and then the installation process continued. There was no way to see this dos window because the installation screen hides the start bar.

You should check out Inno Setup. It has a very easy to use wizard for creating your setup program and it looks professional like the new XP-style installs and it does not mess with that xcopy business. While it does not search for EXE's (which didn't work too well anyway) it can set the installdir based upon registry settings.
Anyway...thanks for the update.
