- Creating an MSI setup via the wizard
You have the ability to create a setup program in MSI standard. These setup procedures are smaller and allow the use of the installer inside the company. Remark: A setup program in MSI standard can be used for a stand-alone setup only. Indeed, this format does not manage the network setups and the automatic modification of data files.

- Start creating the setup procedure: on the "Project" tab, in the "Generation" group, click "Setup procedure".
- In the setup wizard, click "2 - Setup" on the left of the wizard. In the dialog box that is displayed, select "Access the setup options".
- Select "Individual setup", then "Setup via MSI package" in the next step.
- In the rest of wizard:
- specify the installation directory. The "Advanced" button is used to define the modifications that must be made by the setup to the system configuration (registry, INI file, ...).
- select the files to install.
- specify the options for installing the WINDEV framework.
- specify whether a license must be displayed or not.
- select the setup context: for the current user or for all the computer users. This option is used to properly create the shortcuts for starting the application.
