I think, this can be done via provided setup.dll included into the installation...

I can't help you how to write such a dll, but you can find informations to MSDN.

Have you try to have setup create that folder, with a simple file, eg 'some.txt' into it? When you uninstall it, if that folder doesn't contains something else beside 'some.txt' then it will deleted.
I don't know if works, but worth a try. Drop a reply if works

Hello, I've a setup.dll which starts the installed application at the end of the installation but I don't get it working with thePPC Installation Creator. Please could anyone explain how to activate a setup.dll or is this not yet implemented? regeards hermang.

Hello hermag,
You just discovered a bug
The automated generator of the inf file doesn't create the cesetupdll and ceselfregisterdll entries. Just fixed that ...
Download version 1.5 again, and now it will be working.

Thanks for the reply and action!
Brings me to the next question: is it possible to generate the cab file, sign it with signtool, and then build the exe with this new signed cab-file?

regards, hermang
