Custom Installers

September 2nd, 2010 Leave a comment Go to comments

All my installers (except those that are Switchless) are in MSI format, so you can install them silently with /qb /norestart switches.

In many cases, the application settings were customized to fit my needs, but the functionality remains intact so you can change their settings after you install them.

All shortcuts will be placed in Start Menu/Programs, and some of them that use more than one shortcut, will be inside a folder with the program’s name in the same path.

This way, you can use a script or CMD file to arrange them the way you want.

    You haven’t changed the version that’s shown here that’s why I didn’t notice. Thanks!

    I know. It is the first time I update the installers and forgot to change this page to show the new installers.

    For me the new x64 switchless installer is giving an error

    “Error during execution Itunes.msi / qb /norestart.The system cannot find the file specified.

    I do have qktime alt installed btw.

  11. May 6th, 2010 at 19:06 | #11

    @Rick
    Don’t worry, it is a mistake I made in the installation script.
    I will re-upload the fixed installer now.

    Regards.

    Thanks very much for the quick update !!!

    I ended up making my own ‘package’ but it got quite messy….. think i’ll just leave it to the experts !!!!

    thanks again for these excellent installers :)

    May 11th, 2010 at 21:22 | #13

    It would be really useful if you specified what you changed about the installer.
    For the iTunes one since it’s probably your most popular I would give some sort of instruction. I hear you have to quicktime installed…True or not?

  14. May 13th, 2010 at 02:58 | #14

    For iTunes there is a whole post here with all the important information.

    ajua,
    A rousing thank-you for your latest updates. Windows Live apps are very good for the casual user – highly recommended. I’d be lost without you!

  16. May 14th, 2010 at 20:43 | #16

    You are welcome.

    It’s good to hear when someone finds the stuff I share useful ;)

    hey thank you so much.. I’m struggling with the lite version of Nero (which is free); do you think you could take a whack at it and make it switchless ?
    Thanks a lot in advance

  18. May 25th, 2010 at 13:27 | #18

    I’m sorry but I don’t like Nero that much. Also, I would most certainly be violating their license agreement if I modify their installer or application.

    Have you tried BurnAware Free or CDBurnerXP? they are very good and free.

    Regards.

  19. June 5th, 2010 at 11:14 | #19

    te felicito por seguir actualizando el windows live y por el trabajo que te costo. Siempre distribuyo tus trabajos ya que son lo mejor de lo mejor =)

    segui asi!

    Hi!
    First of all THANKS for your work, your custom installers are very useful!

    I’d like to know if you have in mind to make customs for Windows Live Wave 4 (English and Spanish).

    Wave 4 includes new “Windows Live Messenger 15 BETA”, “Movie Maker” and others.

    Seems to be Wave 4 is still keeping .MSI files on PC (C:\program files\common files\.cache) just like Wave 3 did before.

    Thanks in advance!!

  22. July 1st, 2010 at 14:59 | #22

    @KaaMoS
    I have Wave 4 installed on my laptop but messenger (the most used app of the suite) has many bugs. This is to be expected as it is the first public Beta.

    I plan to make installers for the apps, but I will wait until new versions come out and I can be sure they are working well for most people.

    Regards.

  23. KaaMoS
    July 2nd, 2010 at 01:08 | #23

    OK, thank you so much for your response!

    Well… I’ve the .MSI files, but I don’t know how to make a custom pack like yours.
    Is there any tutorial or something else in order to do that?

    If your response is negative, could you tell me which .MSI files are needed for Windows Live Messenger 15 BETA and Movie Maker BETA, please?

    You know, all .cache folder is too big and full of installers, so… would be great to keep just what I really need for both programs.

    Thanks again! ;)

  24. July 2nd, 2010 at 04:03 | #24

    Hi. You can read this tutorial I wrote about modifying Windows Live Messenger.

    I haven’t looked into Wave 4 install logic yet but I guess it is still the same.

    Thnx for ITunes Installer, ITunes is a piece of sh*t software but required for third party sync with some devices.

  26. Yury
    July 17th, 2010 at 02:24 | #26

    Well spoke too fast… install doesn’t work, Apple checks for services and find missing services to recognize the device, windows thinks the sh*tpod is a digital camera… damn I need a zune or somethin..

  27. July 17th, 2010 at 03:50 | #27

    @Yury
    Hi Yury.

    Most of third-party applications don’t need iTunes to be installed at all in order to sync Apple devices.

    About your problem: If you have an iPod Touch, an iPhone or an iPod 5G you need to install Mobile Device Support from the original iTunes installer. Extract it with WinRAR or 7-Zip.

    Regards.

    Hi,

    I was wondering if someone could enlighten me, by describing what is “Custome Installer” what it is used for and what are the benifits in using it. Also I would like to know what is “Switchless software” or “Switchless”. I have no idea what it is all about.

    I hope someone could tell me something about the above. I would turely appreciate it.

    Thanks
    FLDS

  29. August 4th, 2010 at 09:26 | #29

    @flds
    A Custom Installer is exactly that, a modified or a new installer made to fit my needs. The benefits are that I (or others here) can use them to install many freeware applications on a networked or enterprise environment via Group Policy (as they are MSI setups) and also the applications are installed with their settings already configured.

    A Switchless installer is an MSI setup (in my case, at least) that can be installed by just executing or double clicking it. There’s no need for user interaction.

    I hope this answers you questions. Regards.

    el utorrent…crea algun acceso directo en el escritorio? crea asociaciones con archivos torrent?

    pregunto porque quiero instalarlo desatendidamente en computadoras, y que no me cree ningun acceso directo en el escritorio, y ojala asocie los archivos torrent

  31. August 11th, 2010 at 03:39 | #31

    @claudio
    Hola. No crea accesos directos en el escritorio (sólo en el menú inicio) y al correrlo por primera vez asocia los archivos torrent.

    Saludos.

  32. August 11th, 2010 at 10:48 | #32

    It’s automatically downloaded via the update mechanism in the browser. I updated the installer to save time when deploying it.
