ANN: Inno Setup 6.6.0 released

[Martijn Laan]

Hi everyone,

Inno Setup 6.6.0 has been released.

Highlights are:

• Setup and Uninstall now support dark mode, forced or automatic, and custom styles.
• See the updated WizardStyle help topic for more information, special considerations, and example screenshots.
• Alternatively, check out the new Wizard Style page in the New Script Wizard, allowing to choose a style and view example screenshots.
• High-contrast users stay supported: custom styles are automatically deactivated if Windows high-contrast theme is active, and a new /NOSTYLE command line parameter is also available.

This new feature does not increase the size of Setup if not used and is fully backward compatible.

And also:

• Updated wizard defaults bring larger windows, Segoe UI fonts, DPI-aware aspect ratios, and retire WizardResizable, while keeping WizardSizePercent.
• Pascal Script gains IsWinDark, IsDarkInstallMode, stock icon helpers, command link button support, revised CreateCustomForm, and new math and color utilities.
• Security hardening doubles random characters in temp names, switches to CSPRNG generation, randomizes Uninstall directories, and fixes TOCTOU edge cases.
• Compiler IDE refinements improve dark-mode contrast, use 9-point Segoe UI, and extend Windows 11 dark menu support, plus scripts now accept #rrggbb colors, have more /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES coverage, and auto-recreate missing temp folders in a specific scenario.

Hi,

Inno Setup 6.6.1 has been released.

Among other updates, this version improves custom styles by preserving custom RTF text colors and introduces a new [Files] flag, notimestamp, to make it easier to reproduce builds.

Hi,

Inno Setup 6.7.0 has been released. 

Highlights of this version include:

• Added support for custom wizard background images and colors.
• Added support for Windows' RedirectionGuard mitigation.
• Added autocomplete support in the [Setup] section for directive values with fixed options, such as all yes/no directives and others like WizardStyle.

For the complete list of changes, see: https://jrsoftware.org/files/is6-whatsnew.htm

Download: https://www.jrsoftware.org/isdl.php

Additionally, we’re happy to report that we’re making great progress on Inno Setup 7, which will include both 32-bit and 64-bit editions.

Inno Setup 7 can build either 32-bit or 64-bit installers. The 32-bit and 64-bit editions can be installed side by side, and both can coexist with Inno Setup 6.

This work would not have been possible without the support provided through the purchase of commercial licenses. Using Inno Setup commercially? Please purchase a license.

You can read more about Inno Setup 7 here: https://jrsoftware.github.io/issrc/whatsnew.htm

Please let us know on the forum if you have any questions or suggestions, or if you would like to test it yourself.

Happy New Year!

Hello!
Thanks for the new release.

Please explain how to use the style file and background image together.
I use the CodeClasses.iss script example.

If I specify a background image file, the controls do not accept the style.

WizardStyle=modern
WizardStyleFile=..\Styles\Glow.vsf
WizardBackImageFile=..\Images\BG_NOuter.png

If I remove the background image directive, the elements are styled according to the style file.

WizardStyle=modern
WizardStyleFile="..\Styles\Glow.vsf"

Why disable the style of controls when using a background image?
How do I enable the style of controls together with the background image?

With best wishes

Hi,

This is because of this (from the help file):

if a custom style is not specified by WizardStyle, it will automatically activate custom style windows11 with modifiers excludelightcontrols and hidebevels.

What you're seeing is the 'excludelightcontrols' modifier.

I agree it should check WizardStyleFile as well, but by mistake it doesn't at the moment apparently.

You can work around this by specifying windows11 in your WizardStyle directive, so WizardStyle=modern windows11

But this Glow style looks like a dark style to me, so I would recommend using this instead: WizardStyle=modern dark

That way you get dark icons, images and title bar, better matching the Glow style, and using dark mode also means excludelightcontrols has no effect.

See the example below.

Greetings,
Martijn

modern dark



modern windows11

Thanks for the explanation.

Yes, I read the help file, but I was confused by the phrase “custom style is not specified” because I use custom style and set it with the directive WizardStyleFile.

The Glow.vsf style is here as an 'custom style' example.

Therefore, in order to use the style file set by the WizardBackImageFile directive and the background image set by the WizardBackImageFile directive, it is necessary additionally specify the windows11 style in the WizardStyle directive.

Agreed, but note how it says "custom style is not specified by WizardStyle".

So it does not also check whether WizardStyleFile is set, which is a bug I will fix.

After this fix, bevels will reappear. If you do not want those, you should pre-emptively use this instead of my previous advice:

WizardStyle=modern dark hidebevels

Hi,

Inno Setup 6.7.1 has been released. 

Highlights of this version include:

• Compiler IDE: Improved section folding to allow folding of (entire) functions and procedures in the [Code] section.
• Setup: Improved enumeration of the Windows PendingFileRenameOperations registry value.
  If you use restartreplace flags in your [Files] section, updating is recommended.
• Setup: Added workaround for slower folder browsing on Windows 11 25H2.
• ISPP: Added new support function EmitLanguagesSection, to generate a full [Languages] section for all available official languages, including English. Example: #expr EmitLanguagesSection.
  When possible, the Compiler IDE's New Script Wizard will use this function.
• Added official Thai translation.

Hi,

Inno Setup 7.0.0-preview-1 has been released:

We are proud to announce the first preview of Inno Setup 7, which includes a 64-bit edition, as well as a 32-bit edition.

Both editions of Inno Setup 7 can build either 32-bit or 64-bit installers, and they can be installed side by side, and they can coexist alongside Inno Setup 6.

Additionally, support for extended-length paths was added, removing MAX_PATH limitations.

Great care has been taken to ensure maximum backward compatibility with Inno Setup 6, including backward compatibility for the extended-length path support, and compatibility between 32-bit and 64-bit installers.

For the complete list of changes, see: https://jrsoftware.org/files/is7-whatsnew.htm

Download 64-bit edition: https://jrsoftware.org/download.php/innosetup-7.0.0-preview-1-x64.exe
Download 32-bit edition: https://jrsoftware.org/download.php/innosetup-7.0.0-preview-1-x86.exe

Using the 64-bit edition is recommended. As noted above, it can still build 32-bit installers.

Please test your scripts and installers with this preview, even if you do not intend to use 64-bit installers, and report success or failure here. Thank you in advance.

Please do not use this preview to build installers you will use in production.

v7 seems to compile great. Just had to comment out the WPARAM etc as now built-in.

Thanks for testing. Please share a script which reproduces the problem.

Also, I had some custom code for rendering the progress different. I thought it was working but now nothign shows during install:

This script is not correct for 64-bit. You should either keep SetupArchitecture on its default, or do a check of your custom [Code] when interacting with the Windows API.

For example, the script declares OldStatusLabelWndProc and others as LongInt but that makes it a 32-bit type always. Use NativeInt instead. 

Likewise, using SetWindowLong is suspect, as often you need to use SetWindowLongPtr instead. GWL_WNDPROC is simply invalid on 64-bit, see its documentation. You need to use GWLP_WNDPROC instead.

There's another bug in the script. This code is off by 1: ProgressListBox.ItemIndex := ProgressListBox.Items.Count

Hi

For the first issue, this is my code that causes the crash:

procedure CurStepChanged(CurStep: TSetupStep);
var
    strLogFilePathName, strLogFileName, strNewFilePathName: String;
    LogPath: String;
    FileSystemTime, CurrentTime: TSystemTime;

    ImportRegResult: Integer;
begin
    if (CurStep = ssPostInstall) then
    begin
        if (FileExists(ExportRegPath)) then
        begin
            if (Exec(ExpandConstant('{sys}\reg.exe'), \
                    'import ' + ExportRegPath, \
                    '', SW_HIDE, ewWaitUntilTerminated, ImportRegResult)) then
            begin
                Log('Import registry result: ' + SysErrorMessage(ImportRegResult));
                Log('Import registry file: ' + ExportRegPath);

            else begin
                Log('Import registry result: ' + SysErrorMessage(ImportRegResult));
            end;
        end;
    end
    else if (CurStep = ssDone) then
    begin
        GetSystemTime(CurrentTime);
        LogPath := ExpandConstant('{#CommonDataDir}\Installation Logs\');

        if FindFirst(LogPath + '*', FindRec) then
        begin
          try
            repeat
              if FindRec.Attributes and FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY = 0 then
              begin
                FileTimeToSystemTime(FindRec.LastWriteTime, FileSystemTime);
                if (FileSystemTime.Year < CurrentTime.Year - 1) or
                   ((FileSystemTime.Year = CurrentTime.Year - 1) and
                    (FileSystemTime.Month < CurrentTime.Month)) or
                   ((FileSystemTime.Year = CurrentTime.Year - 1) and
                    (FileSystemTime.Month = CurrentTime.Month) and
                    (FileSystemTime.Day < CurrentTime.Day)) then
                begin
                  Log(Format('Log %s is too old (%d.%d.%d), deleting...', [
                    FindRec.Name, FileSystemTime.Day, FileSystemTime.Month,
                    FileSystemTime.Year]));
                  DeleteFile(LogPath + FindRec.Name);
                end
              end;
            until not FindNext(FindRec);
          finally
            FindClose(FindRec);
          end;
        end;

        strLogFilePathName := ExpandConstant('{log}');
        strLogFileName := ExtractFileName(strLogFilePathName);
        strNewFilePathName := LogPath + strLogFileName;

        CopyFile(strLogFilePathName, strNewFilePathName, false);
    end;
end;

For the other bits, I take on board what you say and confirm it works if I make the changes. As for the ItemIndex, I think it was intentional to prevent the selected row showing in blue. Just looks nicer without that showing.

Hi,

In your original post you do have this:

function FileTimeToSystemTime(FileTime: TFileTime; var SystemTime: TSystemTime): Boolean; external 'FileTimeTo...@kernel32.dll stdcall';

This prototype is wrong. According to the documentation, FileTimeToSystemTime takes pointers for both parameters, see https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/timezoneapi/nf-timezoneapi-filetimetosystemtime

You declared only the second parameter as a pointer (var), but not the first.

You got lucky on 32-bit because a TFileTime record does not fit in a register, so it automatically passed a pointer instead. On 64-bit it does fit, so passing by value like your prototype specifies breaks the call.

The correct prototype is:

function FileTimeToSystemTime(var FileTime: TFileTime; var SystemTime: TSystemTime): Boolean; external 'FileTimeTo...@kernel32.dll stdcall';

Also, the code should check the return value of FileTimeToSystemTime before using FileSystemTime.

As for the ItemIndex, I think it was intentional to prevent the selected row showing in blue.

Since ItemIndex is zero-based, the maximum valid value is Count - 1. If you do not want any selection, set ItemIndex to -1.

Best regards,
Martijn

Thanks, I still seem to have teh same problem. I decided to try some temp code:

function GetFileLastWriteTime(const FileName: string): String;
var
  FindRec: TFindRec;
begin
  Result := '';
  if FindFirst(FileName, FindRec) then
  begin
    try
      Result := GetFileDateTimeString(FileName, 'dd/mm/yyyy hh:nn:ss', '-', ':');
      // FindRec.LastWriteTime;
    finally
      FindClose(FindRec);
    end;
  end
  else
  begin
    Log('Could not find file ' + FileName);
  end;
end;

procedure ScanRootOfC;
var
  FindRec: TFindRec;
  FullPath: string;
  Timestamp: Integer;
begin
  Log('--- Scanning C:\ top level ---');

  if FindFirst('C:\*', FindRec) then
  begin
    try
      repeat
        FullPath := 'C:\' + FindRec.Name;

        // Skip "." and ".."
        if (FindRec.Name <> '.') and (FindRec.Name <> '..') then
        begin
          Timestamp := GetFileLastWriteTime(FullPath);
          Log(Format('%s  ->  LastWriteTime=%d', [FullPath, Timestamp]));

        end;

      until not FindNext(FindRec);
    finally
      FindClose(FindRec);
    end;
  end

  else
    Log('Could not enumerate C:\');
end;

But for some reason in v7 it tells me that GetFileDateTimeString is unknown. Even though it is in the docs.

GetFileDateTimeString is in the docs, but as an ISPP function.

Hi,

I don't see anything wrong with this code at first glance, but it's also still incomplete so maybe the problem lies elsewhere in the script.

You could try to take out bits until the problem disappears as a way to locate the problem location, or you could try to create a version which is complete and reproduces the problem when someone else like me compiles and runs it. The versions you posted so far all cause compiler errors due to being incomplete.

Greetings,

Martijn

If I remove the SetupArchitecture=x64 then it works.

If I include the SetupArchitecture=x64 then it will have access violation.

Sorry I did not state that I attached a sample to my last message that reproduced the issue. Sorry if that was not clear.

Are you referring to the uninstall icon?
