As a rule, many novice users have questions that are related to the creation of their own installation packages, which, when unpacked, will create separate directories and copy all the packed information there.
Necessary
- - the Internet;
- - Smart Install Maker program.
Instructions
Step 1
To do this, you need to install specialized software on your computer. The best option for newbies is a software package called Smart Install Maker. Download this software from the official developer site sminstall.com and install it on your computer. Such programs should always be installed in the system drive of a personal computer, that is, exactly where the operating system is located.
Step 2
Once the program is installed, click on the shortcut that will be located on the computer desktop. You need to start a new project that will allow you to create your own installation files. Click on the "Project" tab and click on the "Create new" button. Next, you need to fill in all the fields provided by the program.
Step 3
First of all, fill in all the text information that will be displayed when unpacking the installation file. You need to specify such fields as "Program name", "Title", "File name", "Log file name" and much more. If you need users to also receive additional information about the program you packaged, you can specify the site to which the user will be redirected during installation. To do this, put a check mark next to the "Open web page" item.
Step 4
Specify the paths to the files that you want to pack into the installation archive. If the volume is too large, it will take a long time to pack. As soon as everything is ready, at the top of the program, click on the green button, and the process of packing all the files, as well as all the information that you have filled in in this program, will begin. In the future, you can use the program to create other installation files, for example, to present your program written in some programming language.
