Easy Setup Creator

Delivering a product to the end user is best done through a good locking package to help make a proper first impression. For computer programs and games, this package is the installer, which requires heavy knowledge to be built through coding. Luckily, various applications like Easy Setup Creator help you create one without writing a single line of code.

The application needs to be installed as well in order to function. However, before doing so, it’s best to check whether or not Java Runtime Environment is part of the computer you use it on. What’s more, you might need nullsoft scriptable install system along the way, so it’s best to grab it too while you’re at it.

On the visual side of things, the application wants to make sure accommodation is a walk in the park, with a compact main window letting you navigate through several tabs in which you get to configure general settings, pictures, files, and initiate the build process. Although there aren’t any descriptions, function and requirement fields mostly speak for themselves.

You might end up scratching your head for a while even in the first steps of the creation process, and this is mostly because there’s no option to specify the output file. On the other hand, you can target existing EXE and NSI files, but this kind of defeats the whole purpose. There is also the section where you get to select files and folders to bundle in the installer.

Aesthetics are only visible once the project is completely done. This is all because of the lack of a preview area, which has some impact on overall practicality. The design part only includes several fields where you get to pick an icon, welcome screen, header, and splash image. You need to know the size proportions, or you risk loading files that look pretty poor in the final project.

All things considered, we can safely state that Easy Setup Creator only seems like an easy method of creating a setup package, but this simplicity does more harm than actually help. Registry dependencies of the project you want to bundle in the installer can’t be configured, while the lack of a preview area makes you go through a few test runs.
