Can NSIS by now roll-back partially failed installations? That's to me the biggest gripe I have as a user of such installers – whenever something weird goes wrong you end up with a half-installed application of which you don't know how to get rid of the pieces.
- chamakits 10y agoGood question. It's honestly been too many years for me to remember. But, with a bit of a biased view on it because of having such a good experience with it so long ago, I imagine it either does, or provides the mechanism for the developer to implement it.
- flukus 10y agoYou delete the directory to get rid of the pieces.
- ygra 10y agoAssuming it hasn't done a bunch of other stuff yet. While Microsoft recommends that the install directory is the application bundle and programs should confine themselves to it, that's hardly what many applications are doing.
