Caphyon LLC is pleased to announce the release of Advanced Installer
Professional 2.1, a Windows Installer authoring tool which enables
developers and system administrators to easily build reliable MSI
packages. Advanced Installer runs on Windows 2000/XP, and the install
packages it creates run on all Microsoft Windows 9x/ME/NT/2k/XP
operating systems.
Windows Installer is a powerful, but very complex technology.
Mastering it on your own takes months of hard work. That's where
Advanced Installer comes to help. It creates a high level abstraction
on top of the underlying technology. With a clean, simple user
interface, each operation is logical and intuitive. Everything is done
in the user interface, without complicated scripts to learn or arcane
database tables to edit.
Advanced Installer is built on standard, open formats. The project
files are saved as XML files for easy integration with source control
systems. Advanced Installer is FREE for the simplest, most common
usages. If additional capabilities are needed, they are available at
some of the lowest prices in the industry.
