      Innosetup creates an uninstaller automatically but weirdly there is no concept of uninstallers on macOS.

        @Christoph-Hart The inno one doesn't remove the config files though :(

          @d-healey correct... everything that your HISE product "installs"(Writes) then the installer - who has long since finished and gone to the pub --- knows nothing about - so the native installer has no idea about all that stuff in /AppData/Roaming etc...

            @Lindon But we do :) hence my original question. Can we make the uninstaller remove those files? I can do this easy peasy on GNU with a bash uninstaller.

                    Does INNO have the ability to let end users select what they'd like to install? Like a check box for vst, vst3 or aax?

                      Yes of course. The Inno script file that is created from HISE does give the user the option to select individual components.

                        Open a terminal and type %hise_path% --help for all available commands:(%hise_path% stands for the path to your HISE executable(standalone).)
                        

                        my standalone app exists in:

                        C:\Program Files\HISE-scriptnode\projects\standalone\Builds\VisualStudio2017\x64\Release\App
                        

                        so I open cmd and type in ?

                        C:\Program Files\HISE-scriptnode\projects\standalone\Builds\VisualStudio2017\x64\Release\App --help

                          My mediocre batch processing skills would suggest

                          "C:\Program Files\HISE-scriptnode\projects\standalone\Builds\VisualStudio2017\x64\Release\App\HISE.exe" --help
                          

                          Because you've got a space between Program and Files.

                              @Christoph-Hart With Packages, do I need to make a "package" for each version of the plugin? and then import each of those into a project?
                              I just clicked around, but it looks like I'll actually have to read some documentation ๐Ÿ˜ฑ

                                    @dustbro I don't have my computer in front of me, but you need to create each subfolder of the path (right click on Application Support)

                                    Can't help pressing F5 in the forum...

                                      Packages shows a "Vanilla" system, that you have to populate with folders and files that it will populate during the installation, so it's like Greg said, you need to add all folders and files at the location you want them to be.

                                      Be aware that the AAX plugins have to be at the global /Library/Application Support/Avid/Audio/Plug-Ins folder and not the user ~/Library/... path. This is a problem if you are using the current user's home domain by ticking the last checkbox in the advanced settings:

                                      84b9aa41-f266-4fa5-b84c-447e1589c6c7-image.png

                                        I've tried

                                        chflags unhidden ./Library/

                                          I was able to create a shortcut for the user library and access thru there ๐Ÿ‘
                                          My next issue involves confusion over the source and destination. When you add a folder to your list, what is that actually selecting?? I went thru and added my plug, and it automatically selects the Source and Destination. In Inno Setup, I could script the source file, and it's destination. This just makes me scratch my head.

                                            I think I got it sorted. Add folders and sub folders (case sensitive) to your destination, then right click and "add files".
