How can I hide the file name when install a program?

Question

I am using InstallShield 2010 to build the installer of my project and I would like to hide the name of files showed while they are transferred to HD:

enter image description here

Can I hide the file name and keep the progress bar? Or even to suppress the window and replace it by another?

Anyone have any idea about how can I do this?

can you compile your installshield project into an MSI as opposed to a InstallShield EXE? You can always do a msiexec /i name.msi /qb — apollosoftware.org, Nov 04 '11 at 13:16
Stackoverflow allows you to upload images and display them in your question. It makes things simpler :) — IAmGroot, Nov 04 '11 at 13:18

To enable the display of the name and path of the file being installed on the second line of the status bar, call Enable with the INDVFILESTATUS parameter before calling FeatureMoveData.

Enable(STATUSEX);
Disable(INDVFILESTATUS);
...
SetStatusWindow(100, "Setup is complete.");
Disable(STATUSEX);

You can use "SetStatusWindow" function in installscript to overcome this. An example is in InstallShield site itself: SetStatusWindow Example
