Wheres the large string version of the Unicode NSIS?

0

What you are downloading since version 2.37.3 is the large string version of NSIS. I found that with the short strings, modifying the environment path was dangerous as many users have environment paths beyond 1024 characters long. So I’ve opted to make 8196 the default string length of the Unicode version of NSIS. There was hardly any difference in size of the installers I was creating with the bigger string lengths. With compression, the difference in string sizes seem not to matter. However, the ANSI version offered on this site is the short string version (1024 characters long). This is to keep it consistent with the official NSIS distributable. If you want the large string version of the ANSI version of NSIS, go to the special builds page.
