Hi,

I want to pass command line parameter in admin mode to install dll.

My parameter look like

regsvr32 /i:84848-84848H-57589H-858194J mydll.dll /s

How I do this? I have full version. And I want to do this 32/64 bit.

Is mydll.dll a 32-bit?
Insert Run Application command
Path: SYSTEM PATH
Filename: regsvr32.exe
Command line parameters: /i:84848-84848H-57589H-858194J mydll.dll /s
It is require to specify Working directory where mydll.dll is placed.
Or you can specify the full path to mydll.dll in the command line parameters. For example,
/i:84848-84848H-57589H-858194J #quote##setuppath#\mydll.dll#quote# /s

yes, my.dll is 32 bit.

Really I can not understand what you explain here.

I put all info

Path: SYSTEM PATH
Filename: regsvr32.exe
Command line parameters: /i:84848-84848H-57589H-858194J mydll.dll /s

and saved. Nothing is saved.

I solve this issue but I face elevation problem. DLL not register in Vista. Require admin privilege. Also I don’t after finish installation again installation dialog appear.

Look at Install script tab - Install root item.
The checkbox 'Administrator rights are not required' must be unchecked.
If you have some dialog after Finish dialog then see what commands there are below Dialog - Finish.

my problem is solved. but problem in shortcut in desktop.

Why did you specified Filename as #exepath#?
Specify the name of your application.
For example,
MyApplication.exe

My shortcut issue purely solved. Now I have another issue when "Installation finish" need check-box

See: http://i.imgur.com/H0b8gO4.png

Where is problem? I can not understand how to use it.

Insert the 'Run Application' command below 'Dialog - Finish'.

Path: INSTALL PATH
Filename: MyApplication.exe
If Statement: appdata

Your application will be run if the user check the checkbox.

No checkbox appeared after install.

Path: INSTALL PATH
Filename: MyApplication.exe
If Statement: #ischecked#

Program run after install but no check box appear.

Go to Dialog - Finish command in your script.
Insert an item into Additional checkboxes list
Variable: ischecked
Value: Launch application

I solved this issue. Very good.

I want to add explorer context menu of my application. I want to add any file with my program (my software is hiding software). How can I do this via CreateInstall?

Explorer Context Menu

There is not such command in the current version CreateInstall. For example, you can add an item into Context Menu by the using Registry - Set Value command.
For example, read this
http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/add-open-with-notepad-to-the-context-menu-for-all-files/

and this
http://www.howtogeek.com/107965/how-to-add-any-application-shortcut-to-windows-explorers-context-menu/

I know this but need to passing special command line param with this.

Insert 'Registry - Set Value' commands into your script and specify these parameters there.
For example,
Root key: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
Subkey: *\shell\Open with Notepad\command
Value Name:
Value Type: String
Value: notepad.exe %1
