Custom Script for windows installer in Install4j

Question

I want to run a custom script at the end of installation on windows platform. Something as below

icacls C:InstallDir /remove "NT AuthorityAuthenticated Users" /t

We just want to remove non-privileged user from accessing the installation directory. Is there a way to add custom scripts in install4j to achieve the same. Any different suggestion will also be helpful.

Answer 1

You can add a "Run executable or batch file" action to the "Installation" screen of your installer with the following properties:

"Executable" property: ${installer:sys.system32Dir}icacls.exe

"Arguments" property (one argument per line):

 ${installer:sys.installationDir}
 ${installer:sys.installationDir}
 /remove 

"Wait for termination" property: Selected

"Redirect stdout" property: To log file

"Redirect stderr" property: To log file

"Condition expression" property: Util.isWindows() NT AuthorityAuthenticated Users /t
