ctInstaller Suite

Some features most installers really lack of:
  • Unicode aware (but still supports Win9x)
  • Uninstaller which can delete itself (DeleteFileA/W)
  • No temporary files created
  • All information etc. is stored in the final setup executable, which can be reopened.
  • Can directly import regestry files. No further editing once included!
  • Can remember users choice of components, and allowes a fast reinstallation/update
  • Dynamically downloading of components (and dynamically shows if internet connection is required during setup process)

Drawbacks:
  • So the decompression is extremely fast, the compression factor is bad; Not compatible with other programs
  • Uninstaller requires RunDll32 (included with Windows)
  • Some privilage issues, esp. on Windows Vista (pretty much untested)
  • Not very extendable
  • The setup creator itself does not support unicode
  • No multilanguage support
  • Custom custom script (needs even some knowledge to install files without any (optional) component
