InstallAware Express Description

Enables you to build sophisticated installations in record time InstallAware Express provides an unsurpassed feature set, enabling you to build sophisticated installations in record time without any programming or scripting skills. Features: Lower Setup Development Costs Five Minutes to an Installer Build setups in minutes using wizards, templates, and samples. Then make refinements using InstallAware's intuitive task-based views. Native Code Setup Engine The Native Code engine runs faster than Windows Installer and let's you install/repair/uninstall in Windows Safe Mode! Now your setups will be immune to corrupted Windows Installer stacks on target computers, which would prevent setups to be installed through no fault of your own. Digital Rights Management InstallAware DRM protects any Win32, Win64, or .NET application - with zero changes to your existing source code! Use any number of expiration parameters in Try-and-Die mode. Optionally add Try-and-Buy capabilities to upsell your application any time it is launched via Softwrap. Out-of-the-Box Windows 8 Support From displaying installation progress on the Windows Taskbar, to unpinning your applications from the controversial new Windows 8 Start Screen, and pinning them to the Windows Taskbar, InstallAware gives you the best exposure for your applications through smart use of the latest technology. Set up 64 Bit and 32 Bit Systems with the Same Installer Detect and support ia64 and x64 systems including Itanium, AMD64, and EM64T. Only InstallAware allows you to ship a single hybrid MSI for both your 32 bit and 64 bit customers. Detect and Manage Setups on Virtual Machines Now InstallAware can check your target system and detect whether the operating system is running on a virtual machine. A simple checkbox lets you limit distributions to physical machines. Only to Support Aero Glass InstallAware is the only installer that lets you create custom glass surfaces on your installation wizards. InstallAware also ships with a built-in Aero Wizard setup theme so your setups look light years ahead of your competition! One-Click Technology Preinstalls Deploy technology modules and runtimes, such as Microsoft SQL Express 2012, from your setup in a single step. Any related preinstalls are added to your project automatically. Plus, the preinstall sequence branches by platform. 1-Click Patching Select your old and new setups, click Build Patch, and InstallAware automatically generates a native MSP-file that is packaged using advanced compression. Extend Setups with Custom Programs Run any program as part of your setup, without requiring a particular program location or having to install the program together with your setup. Run before/after your install/uninstall, or even from the finish dialog. Dynamic Scanning Tool Automatically add the file dependencies for your application to any selected directory or feature in your project. Automated Translations Use InstallAware's Localization Wizard to automatically translate your user interface and MSIcode script. Switch languages at compile time or runtime. Existing translations are preserved when making changes to your MSIcode and user interface. Legacy Project Converters Automatically import or convert project files from Wise, Inno Setup, or NSIS. Import .REG Files Directly import Registry Keys and Values stored in .REG files or COM servers. Simply click Import from the Registry View, then browse to the file. Auto-Correcting Fields Now with the auto-correcting IDE, you are spared from common authoring mistakes and pitfalls. Dismissible help hints have also been added to guide you through certain processes. Fully Support Installation Standards InstallAware produces Windows Installer packages that meet the stringent requirements of the Designed for Windows logo program. Complete MSI Support All InstallAware setups fully support industry-standard Windows Installer technology, and Group Policy management features. No proprietary runtime packages or dependencies are ever required. All packages are built to comply with Microsoft's Designed for Windows Logo certification specifications for application setup. Self Healing Applications Create self-healing applications by choosing the Advertised File Types option in the InstallAware IDE. No changes to your own program files are required. Installation on Demand The Advertised Shortcuts option in the InstallAware IDE activates installation on demand for your application. The source files can be placed in a Web Media Block — which accepts any URL or network file path — for remote download and installation. Elevated Privilege Installations InstallAware setups fully support installation onto secured or locked-down systems with the proper Group Policy settings. Windows Driver Install Frameworks (DIFx) Support Install drivers on x86, x64, and ia64 platforms. Optionally check for presence of the device, manage signature warnings and Add/Remove Program entries. Complete sample project included. Improved Download Success Rates Free Unlimited Triple-Mode Web Updates Deploy an unlimited number of royalty-free application updates to your end-users. Plus, its possible to customize the update user experience - freely edit update dialogs, and tweak the update logic. Choose scheduled updates, or manual on-demand update checking, or automatic updates to guarantee that the latest version of your application always gets installed. Also ideal for building dynamically updated Software Bundles with your product. WebAware Installation Technology Reduce download size by removing technology dependencies (such as the .NET Framework) or rarely used features from your main setup file. The main setup will download them seamlessly from the web as needed. Files required by the minimum configuration are included in the main package, which installs without a web connection. Superior Compression Reduce the size of your setups and download packages by up to 5x with the LZMA compression algorithm and BCJ2 compression pre-processors. Only InstallAware provides advanced compression for Windows Installer setups. Industry Leading Installation Technology Multi-Instance Support on All Windows Platforms Allow users to install multiple copies of your application on the same system, without requiring instance transforms or adding an MSI 3.0 dependency. Supports Windows 95 through Windows Server 2012 64 bit. Enhanced! IIS Support InstallAware makes it easy to start, stop, and install IIS websites. Set up virtual folders and application servers. Configure permissions, logging, default pages, and MIME types. Support for IIS 8 is now included. Dependency Decompressor Unpack third-party MSIs and Merge Modules you wish to include with your project and leverage InstallAware's superior compression on your application's dependencies during the build process to further reduce the size of your installation package. .NET 4.5 Support Create .NET installations and distribute the .NET Framework, including .NET 4.5. Advanced compression reduces the size of the .NET Framework by up to 67%, simply by deploying the Framework with InstallAware. Universal Database Support Run SQL scripts on Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle Database, and My SQL platforms. Absolutely no client software is required on the target system to connect to the databases. SQL Server instances are now detected automatically on the network. Java Installation Support Build Java application installations, with support for preinstalling Java Virtual Machines and runtime environments on Windows systems. Complete project sample included. Multi-Core Compression Dual core, hyperthreaded processors, and multi core systems are automatically detected, allowing compression tasks to be spread across multiple (logical) CPUs to linearly reduce build times. Schedule Windows Tasks The new Scheduled Tasks view lets you set up jobs to run on a local machine. Check for internet connections, launch programs, and pass command line parameters. Superior User Experience Refined User Interface Deliver setups that display the latest visual themes. 17 unique dialog themes, non-rectangular setup windows, plus Flash and HTML billboards, make your setups more interesting and more interactive. Automatic Removal of Prior Versions When a previous version is detected, InstallAware will provide the option to uninstall it before proceeding with the installation — automatically. Other Windows Installer tools simply allow the setup to fail and exit.
