Executing VBS files from within a CyberInstaller package

Here is how to execute a .VBS file embedded into your CyberInstaller package, without using a batch file:

- STEP 4 "Data": add your files to the packages, with the file .vbs you want to be executed

- STEP 8 "External Applications": add an external application in the list "Applications to be executed AFTER installation", by clicking on the proper "Add" button

- In the window that will appear, insert the followings parameters:

Description: VBS description
Local path: cmd.exe
Embed into package: NO
Startup folder: |$SystemPath$|
Command line parameters: /c "|$AppPath$|\filename.vbs" (do not forget quotes!)
Execution mode: syncronous
User confirmation: your choice

That’s all: if everything is correct, at the end of the installation the vbs file added to the package (in the example called "filename.vbs") will be directly executed.
