deemcqueen Posted May 24, 2004 Share Posted May 24, 2004 i have found some of the most useful information regarding silent installations of applications and windows on this website so i would like to send bigups to everyone who has contributed!i have created a customized setup for citrix ica client but now i have several files in 1 folder. my question is what is the easiest way [and or application to use] to package applications for msi installation? i have copies of both wise and installshield adminstudio. im looking for a way to consolidate my files into a single msi, exe, or zip file that i can use for a silent install...any ideas?Edit by Doggie: no mr Upper Case my good man..

paul3vanz Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 i personally use inno setup because:1. its easy to use.2. its free.it doesn't make msi files but it does make a single exe.the other alternative is use a self extracting rar/zip which is set to extract the files to a temp folder, run the setup msi, then delete the files after setup. thats probably the easier option.try getting winrar (my favourite) it has a free trial available also.hope this helps...

BetaDroid™ Posted May 26, 2004 Share Posted May 26, 2004 Wrong forum? Maybe http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showforum=80 is what it should be in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
