I am using InstallShield 2010 to build the installer of my project and I would like to hide the name of files showed while they are transferred to HD:
Can I hide the file name and keep the progress bar? Or even to suppress the window and replace it by another?
Anyone have any idea about how can I do this?
You can use "SetStatusWindow" function in installscript to overcome this. An example is in InstallShield site itself: SetStatusWindow Example
To enable the display of the name and path of the file being installed on the second line of the status bar, call Enable with the INDVFILESTATUS parameter before calling FeatureMoveData.
Enable(STATUSEX);
Disable(INDVFILESTATUS);
...
SetStatusWindow(100, "Setup is complete.");
Disable(STATUSEX);

I'm trying to use the Monogame Content Builder in Linux with VS Code. I installed this extension in order to easily run the Content.mgcb file, but when I right click the file, the option to run it doesn't appear. Alternatively, when I run dotnet mgcb-editor in the terminal, this window shows up, but there's no option to import a file or do anything! This is what it looks like:
What am I doing wrong? Why won't the extension work, and why won't the the editor open properly? I'm pretty sure the editor should look like this (this image is from a tutorial).
The Linux GTK version displays differently than the windows version.
Use the New button(Leftmost on Bar) or Open button to specify the .mgcb file in the project folder.
Once a file is open, the Bar adds buttons on the left for Build, Rebuild and Clean and Save on the right.
Right-Click the Content node under project to Add existing or add new or build.
I've searched all over and have not found this. I need to make an Installshield 2015 installer that just installs unattended. No next clicking, no finish button to click, just installs and closes. I don't care if it is visible or not. No using a command line switch.
After some experimentation i figured out a way to do it.
Unload the VS installer project.
Open the .isl file in your text editor of choice located in the installer projects folder
Do a search for InstallUISequence
Remove the following lines from the section:
<row><td>InstallWelcome</td><td>Not Installed</td><td>1210</td><td>InstallWelcome</td><td/></row>
<row><td>SetupCompleteError</td><td/><td>-3</td><td>SetupCompleteError</td><td/></row>
<row><td>SetupCompleteSuccess</td><td/><td>-1</td><td>SetupCompleteSuccess</td><td/></row>
You can optionally remove this if you want no progress bar:
<row><td>SetupProgress</td><td/><td>1240</td><td>SetupProgress</td><td/></row>
Save the file in the text editor
Reload the project in visual studio and build the file.
I didnt change any file paths and everything was working fine. I made one quick change saved it ok, did another change and I went to save it and got the following error. How can I solve this. It will save other files ok
Unable to save
D:\xampp\htdocs\websites\dev.liverpool\style\main.scss
Error:
MoveFileEx(D:\xampp\htdocs\websites\dev.liverpool\style\.sublae1.tmp, D:\xampp\htdocs\websites\dev.liverpoolzstylezmain.scss) failed,
Access is denied.
seems it's because Windows or another program is blocking the file. Sublime text uses a temporal file instead of editing the file directly, and when you save the file uses a API command to move this edited file to the original, so this command has restrictions when one file is locked and Sublime shows this alert.
Maybe this setting {"atomic_save": false} will work for you.
Go to the path where you installed sublime text 2 and...
Right click on the sublime_text 2.exe file.
Go to its properties.
Go to compatibility section under this.
Set its privilege level to "Run this program as an administrator".
Now change settings for all users and there also check the field "Run this program as an administrator".
Apply the changes.
I just solved the same issue on Sublime Text 3 beta, Stable Channel Build 3065 by doing the following under Windows 7:
Navigate to the Sublime Text 3 executable file, wherever you have it installed.
Right-click it and select properties.
Click on the tab marked "Security"
About half way down the tab, on the right hand side, under the list of group and user names is this little button:
Click it.
If your machine is setup the way I suspect it is (otherwise you probably would not be having this issue), you should be prompted for your administrator account credentials. Enter them.
Now, select the Users group in the list, then take a look in the box at the bottom labeled 'Permissions for Users'. Put a check mark in the 'Allow' column for the 'Write' item.
Click 'Apply'
Click 'OK'
You should be set. What this does is it essentially gives Sublime the ability to write files while running with regular user privileges, no administrator level access required. Upon taking a better look at your error, what is happening is Sublime Text is creating a temp file for editing, rather than editing to file itself, then attempting to overwrite the original file with the temp on save. The problem is that the program is not being run by a user with sufficient privileges to perform the overwrite, hence the failure with an 'Access denied' message.
A simple and effective solution: Right-click on the file you want to save, in my case it is index.html, go to the properties and uncheck read-only.
The Sublime text will start working fine.
I have come across this error quite many times and by un-checking read-only file attribute of index.html, I am able to get rid of it
I found out more ways to fix this:
Close and reopen the Sublime Text windows or
Open the file with Np++, add a space, save, quit, then you're prompted by ST to reload the file, click yes, and it works again... or
Open the FTP console to see if there's a transaction in progress - then cancel it
In my case the SFTP plugin seems to be causing this problem, as when the FTP connection is timed out, the file which is waiting to be uploaded is being used, and you try to overwrite it.
This happens because you're using ScoutApp or Compass, they block your SCSS files because they are checking for changes as you specified for a directory for those files.
I suggest you reading this:

Good luck!
On mac using a remote volume sometimes I experience this. The solution is to remove the temp file then save again and all fixed.
IE: if you are working on test.html then the temp file would be ._test.html
Remove ._test.html then save again.
For Mac-
Try changing the destination from 'Macintosh HD' to 'Documents' or any other folder.
Worked for me.
The plugin of Superlime solved this problem. It tries to save the file as root in SublimeText.
Reference Link: https://github.com/azubr/Superlime
Try switching your SublimeText process priority to higher level in process manager (it has to have higher priority than your scss compiling app, if you're using one).
It seems to have worked for me.
if it's not working after doing all suggestions, reinstall the program
On Mac I saved the file in Home directory and it gave me this alert, later when I re saved the file again this time in Document directory the file is working now. Using SublimeText 3.
I found this occurred when the folders are read-only. Right-click on the folders where your site is contained and see if read-only is selected in the properties.
Just open it as an administrator.
Because I want to edit anything and write as admin all the time, I set this program to always open as an administrator using "Configure Applications to Always Run as an Administrator".
Just got your file folder properties which you want to save and deselect to read only attribute.
I am writing an installer using NSIS. I wanna know how to change or write a description(text on white header)on custom pages? For eg: I am inserting a customized page after the directory page and the description remains the same i.e Choose Install Location...
But I wanna change it according to my page requirement. How should I change this text?
Also I wanna access a variable in uninstaller section which is set with some string in installer section. Please help me on this...
Okay, you seem to have two questions there.. probably best to post them separately :)
For setting the title of the customized page, simply use the following macro (I've got mine placed just prior to calling nsDialogs::Create)
!insertmacro MUI_HEADER_TEXT $(MY_CUSTOM_TITLE) $(MY_CUSTOM_SUBTITLE)
Where MY_CUSTOM_TITLE and MY_CUSTOM_SUBTITLE are variables set elsewhere.
You will need to save the string value of the variable during installation by writing it out to a file or registry setting, and then later during uninstallation reading that value from the same location.
I think you need to do this:
!define MUI_DIRECTORYPAGE_TEXT_DESTINATION "My alternate Choose Install Location text"
You could also edit the language files. This is assuming you are using MUI for your custom pages:

I have PHP for FastCGI installed on Windows 7 through the Web Platform Installer. I need to edit php.ini to enable logging, but I'm not able to overwrite the existing file, apparently because something has it open and/or locked.
Stopping the server in IIS Manager doesn't help; stopping the Windows Process Activation Service and the World Wide Web Publishing Service doesn't help. phpinfo() confirms that I'm working with the correct file (C:\Program Files (x86)\PHP\php.ini). It's not marked as read only and I do have permissions for it. I'm out of ideas.
I had this problem and managed to work around it. You need to be running the editor (notepad or whatever) as an admin.
In Window Vista / Window 7, right click and choose "Run as Administrator".
Then open php.ini and edit it...
Another option is to copy the text of the file into a new file in a different location, make your changes, save the file as 'php.ini'. Then copy the new file across overwriting the old one. Explorer may handle the permissions differently.
I've had a similar problem, and I was working in windows 10 which doesn't use "run as administrator"
So this is what I did:
right click the problem file and go to properties
go to tab security
click edit, which should have a shield
select in names of groups: Users(computer specifics\Users)
in the square under it you can allow editing of the file
This causes it to allow you to edit the file for users and not run into the problem anymore. This also removes the problem in the future for this file so you can always edit it again by just opening the file in text editor.
Please note I am Dutch and that certain names are translated incorrectly.
You could use the Find Handle feature of Process Explorer (direct EXE download link), from Sysinternals (a part of Microsoft now), to find out what exactly is locking the file.
I'm sorry I can't help with your exact question, but hope that helps!
In Windows 7, right click Notepad and choose "Run as Administrator". Make sure you do not use Notepad++ as your editor. It accesses this file and therefore tells you there's is an error.
The default notepad will work fine with these instructions.
Depending on what are you trying to write to the file, you can write to an '.htaccess' file on the root of the site instead. I can provide a more specific example if you would like.
You can also use Unlocker to figure this out. A pain, but the utility is really handy anyway so it won't hurt to have it around.
1) Open CMD with administrator mostly like this.
2) Then go to "C:\Program Files\php-8.1.7" like this.
3) then paste "cd C:\Program Files\php-8.1.7" and press Enter and type
php.ini like this.
4) It will automatically open the file in a text editor or suggest to
open any editor like notepad , notepad++,vs code etc.
5) edit as you wish and save it like (ctrl + s) .Here I adding MongoDB
extension like this .And that's it.
By the way the question was asked 12 years ago but we still facing the problem
Try this:
Stop the webserver
Change the file
Start the webserver
If that doesn't work, then you are probably changing the wrong file. It's possible that the original file is elsewhere and when the server starts it copies it to C:\Program Files (x86)\PHP\php.ini. phpinfo() might be pointing to the file that is overwritten every time...
