Password and Serial Code Protect your package by using either one universal password, or have InstallConstruct randomly generate a series of serial codes in any display format. Even import or export your serial code list for fast integration.
Platform Dependant Install Do you need to install a different version of your package on different versions of Windows? Customize your installer so only the right pieces run on the right platform.
Run Multiple Programs Select up to ten programs to run before, during, or after the instalation. Select what Windows version each program should run on, specify a data file, and even specify command line options.
Install Software Updates With InstallConstruct, you can create an installer that will scan the user's drive for a specific file, INI file, or registry entry. Then, customize the action it will take, and what files will be copied where.
Create Windows Installer (MSI) Have InstallConstruct automatically create an MSI file to be used with the Windows Installer on Windows ME and XP with Elevated Privileges.
Update Folder Contents Instead of adding new files to the package manually each time you change your folder contents, tell InstallConstruct to dynamically select the folder contents.
