Replace built-in Uninstaller Introduction panel

[trunglq233]

Hi everybody,

I would like to create a custom panel to replace built-in Uninstaller Introduction panel (in Pre-Uninstall step). This panel has extra check-box. I created a subclass of CustomCodePanel, add it into Pre-Uninstall step (also remove built-in Uninstaller Introduction panel).

The custom panel displays successfully in uninstaller GUI, but when I click 'Next' button, the uninstaller hang and I must kill it using Windows Task Manager.

Debug log:
System's temporary directory = D:\AppData\Local\Temp

Loading externalized properties

Error running install panel: Uninstall The Bridge

Note that if I restore built-in Uninstaller Instroduction panel and place it before the custom panel, the installer works fine.

My question are:
1. Can I add custom panels in Pre-Uninstall step of uninstaller?
2. If yes, can I remove built-in Uninstaller Instroduction panel?
3. If yes, can you tell me what's wrong with me? 🙂

Thank you.

Environment: IA2012 SP1, Windows 7 64bit, Maintenance Mode support (Uninstall)

Hi,

There is another way by using Get User Input - Advance panel.
