create MSI create installer build database

A freeware tool which allows you to quickly and automatically create MSI based installers MAKEMSI is a freeware tool which allows you to quickly and automatically create MSI based installers.

Once set up subsequent rebuilds take minutes and in general require no MSI skills.

MAKEMSI will build and update any Windows Installer database types, for example ICE validation suites or merge modules.

MAKEMSI is the simplest tool available for MSI automation.

MAKEMSI utilizes simple XML like text files for the reliable creation (or updating) of MSI based installers. Once set up subsequent rebuilds are automated, reliable, quick and in general require no MSI skills. Not only does MAKEMSI build the MSI but it creates HTML documentation for it as well! As an MSI creator MAKEMSI generates small files, unlike those built by other tools which can be huge!

MAKEMSI is aimed at both beginners as well as advanced users. If required you have full control over every Windows Installer table and row (you can even create your own).

You can also just point MAKEMSI at a complete directory tree or a registry file and it will create the appropriate Windows Installer entries (components, GUIDs, cab files) and doing this doesn't prevent the use of the more advanced capabilities.

MAKEMSI can actually build or update any Windows Installer database types, for example ICE validation suites or merge modules. It is the simplest tool available for MSI automation.

Here are some key features of "MAKEMSI":
  • Automatic handling of files opened by applications (in use).
  • If an install fails then prior changes will be undone (no half installs).
  • Enables deployment (with or without elevated privledges) to all boxes in a network via Group Policy/Active Directory. Corporate customers will definately prefer (or in fact generally require) MSI based installers due to their ease of deployment.
  • The automatic creation of XP system restore points at package install and uninstall.
  • Self healing (repair) of files or registry entries.
  • The advertising of complete applications (or parts) which allows installation on demand (resources not installed until required).
  • Installation or uninstallation can be automated via command line parameters in a standard way (automatic support for silent or unattended installs).
  • Allows merging of common "runtime files" (via Microsoft or other 3rd party merge modules).
  • Configuration of MSI based products is supported by many mechanisms which are standard for all MSI installers. MSI files are databases which can be manipulated (by the end user) to tweak them or alterations can be done via separate transforms or options can be overridden from the command line. This can change install file and shortcut locations and control which features get installed plus much more.
  • Microsoft Windows product logos require MSI based installers.
