Inno Setup is a free installer for Windows programs. First introduced in 1997, Inno Setup today rivals and even surpasses many commercial installers in feature set and stability.

Key features: • Support for all versions of Windows in use today: Vista, XP, 2008, 2003, 2000, Me, 98, 95, and NT 4.0. (No service packs are required.) • Extensive support for installation of 64-bit applications on the 64-bit editions of Windows. Both the x64 and Itanium architectures are supported. (On the Itanium architecture, Service Pack 1 or later is required on Windows Server 2003 to install in 64-bit mode.) • Supports creation of a single EXE to install your program for easy online distribution.

Mar 23, 2008. Inno Script Generator - Inno Script Generator is a tool that helps you to construct and maintain installation scripts for Jordan Russell's Inno Setup. This new version of Inno Script Generator supported the newest versions of Inno Setup (Jordan Russell, Martijn Laan).

Disk spanning is also supported. • Standard Windows 2000/XP-style wizard interface. • Customizable setup types, e.g. Full, Minimal, Custom.

• Complete uninstall capabilities. • Installation of files: Includes integrated support for 'deflate', bzip2, and 7-Zip LZMA file compression. The installer has the ability to compare file version info, replace in-use files, use shared file counting, register DLL/OCX's and type libraries, and install fonts. • Creation of shortcuts anywhere, including in the Start Menu and on the desktop.

• Creation of registry and.INI entries. • Integrated Pascal scripting engine. • Support for multilingual installs.

• Support for passworded and encrypted installs. • Silent install and uninstall.

• Full source code is available (Borland Delphi 2.0-5.0). * To further help protect installers against potential DLL preloading attacks, Setup/Uninstall now calls SetDefaultDllDirectories if available to remove the application directory from the DLL search order. If SetDefaultDllDirectories is not available or cannot be called, it now additionally preloads a set of system DLLs known to be loaded unsafely by older or unpatched versions of Windows.

* Change in default behavior: the OutputBaseFileName [Setup] section directive now defaults to mysetup instead of setup. Setting it back to setup is not recommended: all executables named 'setup.exe' are shimmed by Windows application compatibility to load additional DLLs, such as version.dll. These DLLs are loaded unsafely by Windows and can be hijacked.

If you do so anyway, the compiler will issue a warning. * Added new [Files] section flags: sign and signonce. Instructs the compiler to digitally sign the original source files before storing them. Ignored if [Setup] section directive SignTool is not set.

Inno Setup's own compiler files are now also signed. * [Setup] section directive LZMADictionarySize now allows the LZMA dictionary size to be increased up to 1 GB from the previous maximum of 256 MB. Review the memory requirements listed in the Compression topic before using! * Improved the 'auto-retry' feature of the [Files] section: it now also retries if MoveFile failed even if the preceding DeleteFile succeeded. Additionally, if MoveFile keeps failing it will now register the file to be replaced on restart if the restartreplace [Files] section flag is used instead of displaying an error message. * The value of the AppVersion directive is now not only used to set the MajorVersion and MinorVersion values in the Uninstall registry key when possible but also used to set the VersionMajor and VersionMinor values as required by newer versions of the Windows App Certification Kit. * Inno Setup Preprocessor (ISPP) changes: - Added new function RemoveFileExt.

- Documented predefined variable ISPPCC_INVOKED. - Console-mode compiler (ISCC) change: Added new command line parameter /J. Can be used to #include additional files. * Unicode Inno Setup: Added official Armenian translation. Flexsim Serial Keygen. * Minor tweaks.

This video tutorial will show how to make and installer for your compiled program. Inno Setup is freeware and can be downloaded at Inno Setup can make an installer program very quickly. Inno works with Windows 95, NT, ME, 98, 2000, Vista, Windows 7 (W7).

It is similar to Install Shield Express. Inno supports disk spanning, encryption, passwords, multilingual installs, uninstallers, registry and ini entries. Full source code is available for download. Jordan Russell worked hard on this program so please support his work. This program works well with compiled programs from pascal, QuickBasic, QB64, GNU C++, RealBasic for Windows, and many others, that do not have installers.
