I have an NSIS installer script that I'm using to deploy a py2exe-built app (using NSIS 2.46). The only UI detail I can't iron out is the window title on the installer.
According to the docs, the Caption
directive should set this text. But whatever I set, it always has the text ": Installing" appended to it. That is, if I have:
Caption "My Special App"
...then the window title on the installer shows "My Special App: Installing". How do I get around this?
(I want to avoid this because I'm actually using the NSIS installer to extract the app to a temporary directory and run it once, not to permanently install it.)
My entire NSI file is:
!define py2exeOutputDirectory 'C:\Path\To\P2EOutput'
!define exe 'MyApp.exe'
; Comment out the "SetCompress Off" line and uncomment
; the next line to enable compression. Startup times
; will be a little slower but the executable will be
; quite a bit smaller
;SetCompress Off
