Disable FilesInUse dialog
How can I disable FilesInUse dialog?
I manage myself this situation and I want to hide it at uninstall.

You can try to add following two functions in your setup.rul:
function OnFilesInUse(szMessage)
begin
return IDIGNORE;
end;
function OnRMFilesInUse(szMessage)
begin
return IDIGNORE;
end;
This will ignore ALL file in use diaglogs.
Be aware that this might cause problems since it is not InstallShield default behavior.

function OnRMFilesInUse(szMessage)

I also would like to ignore the filesinuseuse pop-up. Tried creating an installscript with a custom action to do as you stated below. I have tried placing the custom action in sequence before and after "installvalidate", but it did not work. Is there something I am missing? I have searched high and low for a way to have "ignore" automatically selected.
Also tried different execution ui levels. Installing using silent mode, but that just silently fails.
Using Installshield 12, MSI project. Our software is installed in places where a keyboard is not available so we need to have this selected for the user.
Please help! Thanks.
