Software Deployment

The two leading products are Wise Package Studio and InstallShield Admin Studio - these are both excellent but expensive.

As far as free apps go:

AppDeploy Repackager.. http://www.appdeploy.com/tools/repackager/
Wininstall LE: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb742609.aspx
Advanced Installer: http://www.advancedinstaller.com/

I've only used Wininstall LE out of the last 3 - it OK, pretty much what you'd expect for free. Ugh those component names though... don't make easy reading [;)]

Cheers,
Rob.

Rob, I think the OP was after a lightweight snapshot tool.

I didn't respond because I'm fed up with what seems to be his total inability to - amongst many others - click links called 'Search'. How many posts here, would you guess, include the word 'snapshot'?

If they stopped posting Ian, you'd have noone to vent at and you'd probably explode ;)

Rob, as you well know, I only vent at the terminally idle, those who think we exist to do their jobs for them, and those who cannot read.

Hi abking99,

I was using Picture Taker too but since vista, its slow as hell like you said. Upgrade to Prism Deploy.
