Go to Install Script tab and comment or delete Dialog - Install Path command.
Also, you can hide filenames in Dialog - Progress with Progress settings command.

thanks for looking into this for me gentee, but i don't want to delete the Dialog screen i still want them to show, i just dont want them to show where im installing to, iv attached some images of the Dialog - Setup Path screen and the Dialog - Progress screen, iv put a red circle around the bits that i don't want to be seen i still want all the other info displayed in the dialog screens if that can be done, thanks again for your time.

What version of CreateInstall do you use?
For version 5.
Insert Additional Settings the following value into Dialog - Progress
Variable Name: Pnofiles
Value: 1
This is hide the directory and filenames.

Why do you need to show Dialog - Setup Path if you want to hide Destination Folder box?
If you want to display some text then use Dialog - Settings or Dialog - Welcome.

that Variable Name: Pnofiles Value: 1 works great for the Dialog - Progress screen thank you

as for Dialog - Setup Path i still wanted to use it because it shows how much space is needed and how much space is on the hard drive so if theres a way to just hide the directory on that Dialog - Setup Path screen let me know

or if that can not be done, then i could call a custom dialog, make it display space required and space that's all ready on the dive but i dont know how to do that, i know how to get the custom dialog but not how to set it with space required and space left on drive.

also and where can i get a list of all the commands like the Pnofiles command as i cant find that one in any of the files iv got with create install

Each command has a topic in the help file. You can see a link on the right bottom corner of the command area.
Pnofiles is described in the help topic of Dialog - Progress.

If you want to hide controls in Dialog - Setup Path then you can redefine dialog procedure and delete or hide those controls. It is possible with the full version only.

Or, try to change the size of the controls to zero. Read
http://www.createinstall.com/help/move- ... trols.html
for more details.

But instead of copy the 2 Files to "C:\Programme (x86)\Java\jre6\lib\security" he makes the exact path twice. What should i do now ? Even right click to start the setup with admin rights doesn't work. :cry:

You can send your .ci project file to info@createinstall.com with 'CreateInstall' subject.
Or tell me what you specified in Destination Folder of Installation Files command.
