Multiple Components / Programs

When you select multiple components on the Groups panel, then you can let your customers decide which components, or programs groups to install on their system. You can create an unlimited number of components that your customers can choose from during installation. Your customers may install only 1, all, or any combination of the components.

Each component is installed in its own directory tree, with menus associated with that component, and an uninstaller.

If you want to create an installer to install related install types into one directory tree, with a single uninstaller, then you should use the multiple install types installer.

First you should define your files and directories list. Then, you can create folders that contain 1 or more of the files and directories. Each component must include at least one folder.

When you define your menu items, you can specify which menu item is associated with which component. If you create a menu item that doesn't have a component specified, then the menu is created for all the components the user selects.

Click on the jump point or just page down to learn more about the Folders and Components.
