Spend your time developing your creations not building the installers. Download the fully functional freeware version of Install Creator and create your first installation in less than one minute! Then you decide which way is better!"

Install Creator - Free Version

Free, you read it right!

A complete version of Install Creator with unlimited rights to produce installers for both commercial and non commercial products. Each installer will contain an advertisement page for Clickteam when the installation is complete, with a button to connect to our web site.... And that final advertisement is all we ask. There are absolutely no limitations in the functionality, and none of those annoying "nag screens" in the software.

Install Creator - Standard
$59.00 USD

The same version as above, without any advertisement. Here, too, you get unlimited rights to create installers for both commercial and non-commercial products. Purchase a registered version in the online store. Fax and postal mail registration also available.

Install Creator - Professional
$149.00 USD

A version specially designed for professional use, and especially for people who write shareware and make register-able demo versions. Its basically the same interface, with the possibility of having several versions of the software in the installer, for example one version for unregistered users, and one version for registered users, with the possibility to protect a version with registration codes and other nice features. See complete feature list below.

Note: the unregistered version of the Professional version is only an evaluation demo version, it is not freeware. Only the unregistered version of the Standard version is freeware.

Differences Between Install Creator and Other Installers?

Small footprint of the executable
An empty installer is only 100Kb. We cram the complete professional installation program and the complete de-installer in 100kb! Compare that with other installer programs: minimums of 500Kb. We feel it is inexcusable to have a 500Kb installer!

A simple and easily understood interface
There's no complex scripting language, you simply select a directory that contains the files to install and set options for any special individual files and that's it, you're done.

Easy step by step wizard - it's a cinch!
When the project is done, just save the settings and you can recover the project later and update it at your will.

Complete customization
You can change all the texts, choose any bitmaps, customize each screen of your installer - you can preview the look of the install process at anytime during the creation process.

Fully functional freeware version

The freeware version is fully and completely operational. You will not find a better installer at 10 times the price. You have nothing to lose test it out today. All these features sound obvious and standard - don't they? So why do we still find programs on the Internet that decompress the data files onto the desktop (isn't that annoying?). Then there are the programs without proper de-installation routines, and products that create a directory at the root of your C drive instead of directing the files where you want them.
