Description
You've written a program and now others need to double-click to install it, with a welcome page, licence page, install path, Start menu shortcuts and a clean uninstall. Inno Setup is a free Windows installer builder: describe what to install and where in a script, compile it, and get a single setup exe.
The site shows light and dark interfaces, a built-in script editor (IDE) and the familiar Windows-style wizard pages. It has been freely updated for years and is a common choice for shipping both open-source and commercial software.
Script driven: Define files, shortcuts, registry entries and wizard pages in a text script that fits version control.
Built-in IDE: An editor with syntax highlighting; compile and test the installer right from it.
Single-file installers: The output is one standalone exe, simple to distribute.
Customizable wizard: Welcome, licence and folder pages can be added or removed, with a dark appearance available.
Uninstall support: An uninstaller is generated so what was installed can be removed cleanly.
