When Instanstiating

[Taruto]

When you call your Adobe Reader, program instantiation wizard will "get up", I am wondering how that wizard is made ?
Thank you

I guess you mean to say "windows installer" gets up.
If yes, the program is installed using MSI/InstallShield Windows Installer package. You must be having the shortcut of Adobe Reader, just see the shortcut properties - you wont see .EXE as target but some GUIDs. This causes installer to launch up, if it does not find complete installation.

You are refering to the Startup screen that comes up when we start the Adobe Reader. In bottom of that screen it shows the it is instantiating and other things.

In order to run Adobe Reader certain files have to be loaded in to memory and some information needs to be read from the Registry. That is why you see that screen.

Now for instance, if your application needs some files to be loaded into memory before you start working with the application and some information needs to be read (from registry or an INI file), you could also have a startup form and load the files/information in the background. Unload the Startup form once this is done.

I dont know what Adobe applications does when starting them, whenever I click (or double click) on any MSOffice application the cursor appears within a second or two!
