Is it possible to change the window title bar of your installer using Inno Setup

Is it possible to change the title bar of your installer using Inno Setup?

By default is:

AppName=My Program

and when you run the setup in the title bar appears:

Setup – My Program

Is it possible to hide the word "Setup"?

Best Answer

Add the following lines to your InnoSetup script file:

[Messages]
// define wizard title and tray status msg
// both are normally defined in innosetup's default.isl (install folder)
SetupAppTitle = Setup YourApplicationShortName
SetupWindowTitle = Setup - YourApplicationName YourApplicationVersion

This will modify the "title bar" and the "app title" in the tray.

I would suggest not modifying the default configuration in /innosetup/default.isl, like Sertac Akyuz pointed out. Think of this file as fallback config. If you don't define a setting, then the setting is taken from default.isl. Just modify your file; not the default settings!

Do this in your onCreate() method.

//Remove title bar
this.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);

//Remove notification bar
this.getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN, WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);

//set content view AFTER ABOVE sequence (to avoid crash)
this.setContentView(R.layout.your_layout_name_here);

this refers to the Activity.

Inno Setup : How to set installer “Run As Administrator”

I have been having this same problem as well, it took me quite a bit of time to figure out that after you have set the PrivilegesRequired=admin you also need to add runascurrentuser to all the [Run]Flags.

[Setup]
PrivilegesRequired=admin

[Run]
Filename: "{app}\MyApp.exe"; Description: "{cm:LaunchProgram,MyApp}"; Flags: runascurrentuser nowait postinstall skipifsilent; Check: returnTrue()
Filename: "{app}\MyApp.exe"; Flags: runascurrentuser; Parameters: "-install -svcName ""MyApp"" -svcDesc ""MyApp"" -mainExe ""MyApp.exe""  "; Check: returnFalse()

I know you have probably already figured out the issue considering this question was asked over two years ago but I thought I would answer it anyway for others like myself who found this unanswered question but would have really liked to have seen an answer.
