How to Repackage Existing Installations and Covert EXE to MSI?
|
|
The first thing you need to check when you plan a remote software deployment is to ensure that you have installation package, ready for silent unattended install. It's important, because most of packages don't support such type of installation, so they can't be deployed on remote PCs by Group Policy, EMCO Remote Installer or other tools.
What should you do if your installation isn't ready for remote deployment? You need to repackage your installation to MSI format that supports a silent installation. EMCO MSI Package Builder allows you to make such repackaging in the automatic mode. It works for any installation type, so, for example, if you have an EXE setup, you can convert EXE to MSI silent package.
EMCO MSI Package Builder has a special monitoring technology, used for EXE to MSI transformation. This technology can track all changes on the file system and registry in order to capture the installation process. If you need to make EXE to MSI repackaging you only have to launch an original installation and follow the installation process. All performed changes are tracked and used as the input for automatic MSI generation. Produced MSI package performs the same installation steps, as the original installation, but includes configured options and can be used for silent remote installation.

Features and Benefits: EXE to MSI Repackaging
EMCO MSI Package Builder is a tool, specially designed for EXE to MSI repackaging using a unique monitoring technology for file system and registry changes tracking. This technology has advantage over any other existing repackaging technologies, because it integrates with Windows to detect processes performed particular changes. As the result, instead of bunch of unassigned changes, you get a list changes, grouped by performed processes. So you can delete unwanted changes, performed by background or system processes that have no relation to the monitored installation. In addition to EXE to MSI repackaging, EMCO MSI Package Builder can be used to create MSI package, build MSI for remote silent install and customize or change installation.
