Installer Maker

Are a manager, teacher, researcher, or merchant wanting to distribute presentations, demo software, learning tools, or just a bunch of files? Don't want your audience to go through the hassle of installing the files manually? Then provide them with an installer created by Installer Maker!

Installer Maker is the right development tool for professional and amateur software developers and is used by companies and universities to distribute their software.
