Hi Marco,

the classical ''fork'' problem of NSIS.
Symptoms are that WPKG say ''check failed after upgrade'' but software
are correctly installed (because the installation continue in
background, and normally works).

Normally i solve that situation doing, on upgrade, a disinstallation of
the previous one in a start "" /wait jail (with or without the _?
option, it depends), and then an installation.

For most NSIS-based applications I do not even bother about previously removing the old version as most installers handle "upgrades" correctly if there is already a version of the software installed.

Just for real remove it's often headache. But the script I posted helps in many cases as the uninstaller forks and then removes itself at the end. So waiting for it to disappear is usually fine.

Rainer
