    Inno Setup - Resolved

    Has anyone used Inno Setup in a production environment?

    Is it safe? Any back doors found?

    Has anyone tracked an install to verify it only does what is says it does?

    Looking at using Inno Setup, but just a bit caustious.

    "But the plans were on display ..."
    "On display? I eventually had to go down to the cellar to find them, With a torch."
    "That's the display department. The lights had probably gone out."
    "So had the stairs."
    "But look, you found the notice didn't you?"
    "Yes," said Arthur, "yes I did. It was on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying Beware of the Leopard."

    Can you use any installer for your VB projects? Or do they have to be specifically used for the VBP extensions? (Visual Basic Projects)

    Very Popular setup tool.

    Do a search on the board...there has been many discussions about it. I personally find it to be great. You have full control and it is much better then the P&D wizard that comes with VB

    I agree

    I agree that its very powerful. I have used it for soem personal apps, just never in a corporate production environment.

    A little nervous about trying it for that kind of setup. Hehehe

    Tenebrosity,

    The answer to your question is Yes. We use it all the time in Fortune 1000 environments. It is safe. To help guide you on your way check out the signature at the bottom of my post.
