This addon is SFX archive based on a .cmd file, that deletes all ebay links and/or "Unlocker Assistant".

1. Download Unlocker 1.8.7
Unlocker 1.8.7
2. Create .cmd file in the same dir:
With Assistant:

CODE

start /wait unlocker1.8.7.exe /S
ping -n 2 127.0.0.1 > nul
DEL /F /Q "%ProgramFiles%\Unlocker\eBay_shortcuts_1016.exe"
DEL /F /Q "%UserProfile%\Application Data\Desktopicon\eBayShortcuts.exe"
DEL /F /Q "%UserProfile%\Desktop\eBay.lnk"
DEL /F /Q "%UserProfile%\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\eBay.lnk"
DEL /F /Q "%UserProfile%\Start Menu\eBay.lnk"

UPD: Now Unlocker AddOn without Assistant is a switchless installer based on True Addon(thx Kel for his UberPack) and uninstallable. Works great.
3. enjoy

No, registry entries are not important, cause you delete all ebay-related files, but you can delete those if you want
use command based on Unlocker Assistant removing

CODE

REG DELETE HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run /v UnlockerAssistant /f

Did you guys know that this can be done with a single 7zip sfx config.txt file?

I will give it a shot

EDIT: Here is a working example

CODE

;!@Install@!UTF-8!
;Installs program
RunProgram="unlocker1.8.7.exe /S"
;Kills process
RunProgram="hidcon:cmd /c tskill UnlockerAssistant"
;Removes reg entry
RunProgram="hidcon:cmd /c reg delete hklm\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Run /v UnlockerAssistant /f"
;Deletes crap
RunProgram="hidcon:cmd /c del /f /q \"%ProgramFiles%\\Unlocker\\eBay_shortcuts_*.exe\""
RunProgram="hidcon:cmd /c rd /s /q \"%AppData%\\Desktopicon\""
RunProgram="hidcon:cmd /c del /f /q \"%UserProfile%\\Desktop\\eBay.lnk\""
RunProgram="hidcon:cmd /c del /f /q \"%AppData%\\Microsoft\\Internet Explorer\\Quick Launch\eBay.lnk\""
RunProgram="hidcon:cmd /c del /f /q \"%UserProfile%\\Start Menu\\eBay.lnk\""
;Extra for Vista users
RunProgram="hidcon:cmd /c del /f /q \"%AppData%\\Microsoft\\Windows\\Start Menu\\eBay.lnk\""
GUIMode="2"
;!@InstallEnd@!

Yea...if you don't mind the cmd window popping up on you. With this the commands are all built in to the config.txt and are executed right after the install, its more natural

rick, your installer crashes the explorer and the ebay icons is still showing up on desktop and start menu (with no target)

here is another way [for version 1.8.7]

it's silent install ,with Uninstall ,without eBay and Unlocker Assistant

1- install it manually
-choose your language
-uncheck check for update, Assistant, eBay shourtcuts

2-go to install dir and delete unneeded files [eBay_shortcuts_1016.exe,README.TXT,Unlocker.lnk]
then make sfx with winrar with the this options
Path=%programfiles%\Unlocker\
SavePath
Silent=1
Overwrite=1

3-make a registry file with the following:

CODE

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AllFilesystemObjects\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\UnlockerShellExtension]
@="{DDE4BEEB-DDE6-48fd-8EB5-035C09923F83}"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{DDE4BEEB-DDE6-48fd-8EB5-035C09923F83}]
@="UnlockerShellExtension"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{DDE4BEEB-DDE6-48fd-8EB5-035C09923F83}\InProcServer32]
@="C:\\Program Files\\Unlocker\\UnlockerCOM.dll"
"ThreadingModel"="Apartment"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\UnlockerShellExtension]
@="{DDE4BEEB-DDE6-48fd-8EB5-035C09923F83}"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\AllFilesystemObjects\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\UnlockerShellExtension]
@="{DDE4BEEB-DDE6-48fd-8EB5-035C09923F83}"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{DDE4BEEB-DDE6-48fd-8EB5-035C09923F83}]
@="UnlockerShellExtension"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{DDE4BEEB-DDE6-48fd-8EB5-035C09923F83}\InProcServer32]
@="C:\\Program Files\\Unlocker\\UnlockerCOM.dll"
"ThreadingModel"="Apartment"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Folder\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\UnlockerShellExtension]
@="{DDE4BEEB-DDE6-48fd-8EB5-035C09923F83}"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\Unlocker.exe]
@="C:\\Program Files\\Unlocker\\Unlocker.exe"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Shell Extensions\Approved]
"{DDE4BEEB-DDE6-48fd-8EB5-035C09923F83}"="UnlockerShellExtension"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Unlocker]
"Language"="1033"
"DisplayName"="Unlocker 1.8.7"
"UninstallString"="C:\\Program Files\\Unlocker\\uninst.exe"
"DisplayIcon"="C:\\Program Files\\Unlocker\\Unlocker.exe"
"DisplayVersion"="1.8.7"
"URLInfoAbout"="http://ccollomb.free.fr/unlocker/"
"Publisher"="Cedrick Collomb"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\UnlockerDriver5]
"ImagePath"="\\??\\C:\\Program Files\\Unlocker\\UnlockerDriver5.sys"
"Type"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\UnlockerDriver5\Enum]
"0"="Root\\LEGACY_UNLOCKERDRIVER5\\0000"
"Count"=dword:00000001
"NextInstance"=dword:00000001

4- Done

Yea, its not svcpack comp, only a true addon of ulocker like you get in Kels UberPack will work

Yeah, i like that one too! I deleted assistant in uberpack and it works great!

Made true Unlocker 1.8.7 AddOn based on Kel's Uberpack.
100% works.

there is no need to make those shellextensions in HKCR and HKLM
UnlockerCOM.dll does it, it is Selfregistering DLL

regsvr32 /s UnlockerCOM.dll adds all those entries
only the Driver entries needed to add

I made a custom Unlocker Installer without ebay using NSIS

the NSIS script and the Custom installer attached

BTW
how to remove a DLL handle on sme exe?
here the UnlockerCOM.dll has still a handle on explorer.exe, the uninstaller calls taskkill to remove the handle
and proceed the uninstall otherwise the Unlocker folder and UnlockerCOM.dll could not be deleted (need a restart)

how can it accomplished without using taskkill by some win32 API calls to reomve the handle ??

I have also created a custom Unlocker installer:

unlocker187.exe (330 KB)

You can use the following install command:

CODE

unlocker187.exe /VERYSILENT /NORESTART

As I do like the Unlocker Assistant it is included. Only one icon is placed inside the Common Administrative Tools menu.

BTW I hate using the so-called ADDONS. Most addons don't come with proper uninstallers so you can't remove it if you want to. Also updating addons is not easy on a running system. I think addons are only useful when integrating stuff into the Windows system, like additional themes or fonts.

@ Acheron
+1 by me
i too dont fully like the idea of addons for common apps.
using NSIS for apps less comples install saves lots of space than INNO

btw i had few errors in my nsi script which prevented unlocker poping up

.

fixed .nsi file attached

build using NSIS and install with /S switch

Hi, this is how i install unlocker :

I use a 7z-SFX with this files inside :

CODE

Unlocker.exe
UnlockerAssistant.exe
UnlockerCOM.dll
UnlockerDriver5.sys
UnlockerHook.dll

With this as config.txt file :

CODE

;!@Install@!UTF-8!
GUIMode="2"
SetEnvironment="UL=\"%ProgramFiles%\\Unlocker\""
RunProgram="cmd /c xcopy \"%%T\" %UL% /s /e /i /y"
RunProgram="regsvr32 /S \"%UL%\\UnlockerCOM.dll\""
RunProgram="hidcon:cmd REG ADD "HKLM\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Uninstall\\Unlocker" /V "Language" /D "1036" /f"
;!@InstallEnd@!

the 1036 in the reg add is for french language
if you want english just put 1033 instead of it

This is more than a year later, but is this still available? This is exactly what I'm looking for... The download link is dead though...
