SamLogic Visual Installer<\/a> is an easy-to-use installation tool that can be used to install software, documents, Excel sheets, videos, etc, and there exist two versions of the tool: Standard<\/strong> and Professional<\/strong>.

\"\"<\/p>\n

Visual Installer \/ Standard<\/strong>
\nThe Standard version of Visual Installer is designed to handle smaller setup projects. It is also very suitable if you want to install documents, Excel sheets and videos, and other file types that are not software. The Standard version is very easy to use and no programming is ever needed.<\/p>\n

Visual Installer \/ Professional<\/strong>
\nThe Professional version of Visual Installer is designed to handle larger setup projects and it is specialized to install software. It is also more flexible than the Standard version of Visual Installer thanks to the powerful scripting language that is included in Professional. The scripting language will give you a great control over the installation and can be used to handle all special cases that may happen when dealing with complex installations. It is not necessary to use the scripting for most tasks, but if the normal settings are not enough for your installation project, you can always include powerful script commands that will handle these circumstances.<\/p>\n

\"\"The Professional version is also necessary if you need to handle prerequisites during an installation. From Visual Installer \/ Professional you can run other installations during the installation process in a controlled manner. If you need to install 64 bit applications, you must also use the Professional version. The Standard version only support installation of 32 bit applications.<\/p>\n
