Now , it's time to package my proj after almost two months of coding ....:D . My question is : Has anyone tried installers (like Inno ,Wise , or Installshield..etc )other than VS.NET's because it sucks , it doesn't seem to get the job well done .:confused: ??
NSIS is what the installer Winamp uses and is supposed to be extremely powerful.
I have no idea if there is any type of GUI drag and drop to make it but it uses a scripting language of it's own to create the installers.
I never had a problem with VS .NET's installers though, they seem pretty damn good
Does it provide wizards you can go through ? It's a litte easier and seems to be error-free .:D
Nope, I just looked at it (just realized I had it installed) and it's a compiler that compiles script into an installer.Quote:

It even comes with the source code for it :)
No wizards or anything like that. If you want wizards, use the .NET installers (It has like 4 different ones and they all seem really good)
It doesn't look that good . I need some wizards .
Thanks though . :)
Why dont you get Windwos Installer SDK?
this link might help, it is certainly wizard based and has a ghost function so that failed installations can be complpetely rolled back. Getting very close to de3ployment ourselves, so interested in anyones expereinces.

Thanks all . I downloaded Installshield and it integrates into VS.NET , wizard-based , and more .
