First scipt

[rendez2k]

I've just created my first script to install some software and I just wanted to check that my routine to move some icons around is the best way of doing it (and I'm not going to delete my whole start menu!)

; Delete & Tidy Shortcuts

; Delete extra links

FileDelete( @StartMenuDir & "\Programs\CCleaner\Uninstall CCleaner.lnk" )

FileDelete( @StartMenuDir & "\Programs\CCleaner\CCleaner Homepage.*" )

; Check for a Utils folder and then create one if not found

If Not FileExists( @StartMenuDir & "\Programs\Utils" ) Then DirCreate ( @StartMenuDir & "\Programs\Utils" )

; Move the main program link and then delete the original folder

FileMove(@StartMenuDir & "\Programs\CCleaner\CCleaner.lnk" , @StartMenuDir & "\Programs\Utils" )

DirRemove(@StartMenuDir & "\Programs\CCleaner\" )

Also, is it possible to combine the AutoIt compiled exe with any 3rd party exe (such as an installer) into one file? I saw the FileInstall option but what would the destination be for an installer file?

Maybe something like this:

FileInstall("C:\setup.exe", @TempDir & "\setup.exe")
RunWait(@TempDir & "\setup.exe")
FileDelete(@TempDir & "\setup.exe")

Read Autoit helpfile and it's examples carefully.
