Project • This information applies to InstallScript projects.

The OnRemovingSharedFile event handler responds to the RemovingSharedFile event that occurs during uninstallation when a file that might be shared with other applications is about to be removed. When creating an InstallShield object, note that this event is not triggered in an object.

This event handler is called (when appropriate) in any setup, including a setup that uses a procedural script (a script with a program…endprogram block).
