Advanced Installer 12.2 Release Notes
On June 10th, 2015 Caphyon Ltd. is proud to announce the release of Advanced Installer 12.2 in Free, Professional, Enterprise and Architect editions. This release is available for download on the Advanced Installer website.
Windows 10 is just around the corner and turns out Visual Studio 2015 will be on the stage too. We at Advanced Installer are excited to announce that our VS 2015 extension is now available, together with a new set of predefined launch conditions for the latest Microsoft software.
We love automation, so we keep expanding our continuous integration support with a brand new plugin - for TeamCity.
Installer Analytics is bringing some new cool reports
in this release. Insightful data about your prerequisites
installation is now available, giving you the power to see
exactly which prerequisites are installed by your users and which of
them are already available on their machine.
Get a better sense of your data with weekly and monthly reporting views, which is now available in the Installations and Versions reports.
We also added a geographic report that will interactively show you how many users you have around the globe. See your installs and users even in countries were you don't have direct downloads, like where you are represented by partners which distribute your software on physical media.
