MSI from installation files

[johnsmith052]

Greeting,

My Task is to build a MSI file, but the install file are in setup.exe with some other files and Some sub-foler there.

I like use "Repackaging an existing installation in a VMware virtual machine" to do that. (during the installation, I need to answer some questions, then next)

How can I do that?

Thanks.

Hello,

Using an MSI setup package you can get the user input using the Installer Properties. For instance you can use our "Dialog Editor" feature to configure UI controls on your dialog and further use their associated property into your setup project.

Have a look on our "How to show a custom feature selection dialog" tutorial for a short example.

All the best,
Daniel

Thanks Daniel,

My installation file is Setup.EXE with another file not MSI. (For example, Office, not only one file)

You are welcome.

In this case you can try to "Convert EXE(s) to MSI" and add the other files required by your EXE setup in the "Additional Files" field.

Hope this helped.

All the best,
