The NSIS installers do not have an ability to for customization. They
do what they do.
Organizations that are distributing KFW are recommended to use the MSI

addition/removal of components via the use of MSI transforms.
If you want to use the NSIS installer with the URL, create empty files
for distribution to your users.
