Install Creator

Install Creator 2.0, released by Clickteam, is a lightweight Windows authoring utility whose single purpose is to convert compiled applications into ready-to-distribute setup packages within minutes. Positioned in the installer/deployment category, the program replaces lengthy scripting with an intuitive step-by-step wizard: the developer simply points to the executable, selects shortcuts, license text and splash bitmaps, and a self-contained installer is generated without writing a single line of code. The free edition is fully functional for both commercial and non-commercial titles, inserting only a post-install page that credits Clickteam, while the paid registered build removes that advertisement and the professional tier adds shareware-oriented logic—such as serial-key validation, time-locked demos and a single installer that can conditionally deploy either the trial or the unlocked version depending on the user’s credentials. Because the underlying engine is identical across tiers, projects started in the freeware 1.x line open seamlessly in 2.0 and can be upgraded to the advanced feature set at any time. Typical use cases range from indie game studios wrapping nightly builds to IT departments bundling in-house tools, all benefiting from royalty-free redistribution and compact, Explorer-style output that runs on every supported Windows edition. Install Creator is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads supplied through trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always delivering the latest build and supporting batch installation alongside other applications.
