Installation
software / setup tool / setup wizard for Windows
SamLogic Visual Installer 2012
is an easy-to-use installation software / setup tool that can be used to create a setup
package / setup wizard for distribution via a CD, DVD, USB flash drive or the
Internet. No programming knowledge is required; you can
create your installers visually.
Visual Installer can build a redistributable installation program
that is compatible with all Windows versions from Windows 98 to the latest Windows
8. Both 32 and 64 bit version of Windows are fully supported.
Self-extracting
installation for deployment via the Internet
Visual Installer
can create a single self-extracting EXE file for deployment
via the Internet. When the user clicks on the setup file the
installation starts automatically. All your programs, documents,
and other files, are included in the EXE file. This is perfect for demos
and updates that are distributed via the Internet, but also very
handy if you sell software via the Internet!
CD, DVD and USB
flash drive
Whether you need to distribute your
programs or documents via a CD, DVD or USB flash drive, Visual
Installer is the right tool for you.
You can choose if the files should be distributed with
compression or not. A setup program placed on a CD or DVD can start automatically:
the Windows AutoRun function is
then used to start the installation. You can also combine
the setup tool Visual Installer with our menu designer tool
CD-Menu Creator
to create an AutoRun menu interface for the CD, DVD and USB
flash drive.
Create a
setup wizard in minutes
There are many ready-to-use
setup dialog boxes included in Visual Installer that
can be used to create a
setup wizard for your
setup files. You
can easily select those
dialog
boxes you want to show in the setup wizard's user interface. There are dialog
boxes that handle installation folders,
license keys,
passwords, license texts etc. Many ready-to-use dialog box
pictures
are included.
Striking
setup screen / window can be designed
With Visual Installer,
you can design a stylish and impressive
setup screen (setup
window) that is
shown in the background during the installation. On a setup
screen you can place images, text, progress gauge, etc.
Also
sound / music is supported. A setup wizard with no setup screen can also be
made.
Support for multiple languages
Any language can be used for the text in the setup program's
user interface, so you can build installers that can be used
worldwide. The texts are stored in separate language files and
can be easily changed between projects.
Intelligent
management of software updates
Visual Installer can
detect if a previous version of a program is installed and
automatically update the older files without asking the
user for a destination / installation folder. This will
make it easier for your user's to install updates of your
software.
Creates
a code
signed setup package
Important setup files in Visual
Installer are always code signed and you can also code sign the
setup package that you deploy in an easy way. You can read more
why it is a good idea to create a
code signed setup package here.
Can import
Visual Studio / Visual Basic project files
|
Visual
Installer can import a project file
created with
Microsoft Visual Studio /
Microsoft Visual Basic (Visual Basic 6.0 / 2002 - 2012) and create an installation project / setup package
based on that. So you do not need to add your Visual Basic files
manually to a setup project; our tool will do the job! And after
that you will have a fully functional setup program, with a
visual setup wizard, in minutes. Read more about the support for Visual
Basic here. |
