Legacy installation packages not using the industry standard
Windows Installer engine can be easily converted into reliable MSI
packages and benefit from the advantages of the latest Windows Installer
technologies.
Among the many advantages of using Windows Installer, some of
the most important are: GPO deployment, application patching and seamless UAC integration on Windows
Vista.
Easy
Repackaging
The installation capture is done in a wizard-based repackager
component by comparing system snapshots taken before
and after the package installation.
You can use an existing saved system snapshot as a starting
point for the capture or a new system snapshot will be created based
on your selected profile.
Capture Installations
If you need to fine tune the accuracy of the repackaging
process, the installation capture results can be further processed
using a powerful filtering mechanism through customizable profiles.
You can capture and repackage existing installations into MSI
packages and personalize them.
Custom Repackaging
After an installation capture is completed the results will
automatically be imported into a new Advanced Installer project, that
you can review and personalize to your new package deployment needs.
All the necessary files and resources for the project are
automatically imported to your selected output folder, so the new
project will not have any dependencies to the installation you have
just captured.
