CNET Editors' review
Install Creator makes the process of creating installers for your applications as painless as possible, and the fact that it's free only makes it more appealing.Once it's installed and running, you can use the app's wizard to locate your program directory; enter the title of your program; choose the size of your installer (small or full screen); add release notes and a license agreement; determine where you want your program to be installed; and perform a number of other necessary functions. You also can skip the wizard and enter all of this information manually. When you're ready to go, just hit the build key, and you're done. Install Creator includes all the features you'd ever need, including automatic installation of any screensavers, fonts, or ActiveX controls your application might require.
As you might expect, this program also handles the creation of an uninstaller. The only downside to using the free version of Install Creator is it displays the Clickteam logo on the last page of any installer you create; you'll have to register to get rid of it. Despite that minor complaint, Install Creator still makes a great addition to any developer's toolkit.

Good Installer Program.

But One Thing Is The Cons: Advertisement At The End.

"Great installation program"
Version: Install Creator 2 build 28
Pros
This has worked flawlessly for me. I have a install program I paid over $100 for, this beats it for ease of use and reliability, even the just released version of the purchased program.
Cons
None at this point.
Summary
Best install program I have used.
-
"Great program for the price, even the free version!"
Version: Install Creator 2 build 28
Pros
This program is somewhat easy to use. Even though I am using the free version, lots of customization is available (i.e. pictures, colors, etc.)
Cons
The only thing that I dislike about this program is the Clickteam Install screen at the end that is completely unchangeable in the free version. However, this is what most would expect with a demo.
-
"They want $$$ for silent install feature"
Version: Install Creator 2 build 28
Pros

Cons

Summary
Said it was free until i installed it, unregistered version works, but features you would expect, you'll have to buy.

"Do Not Buy AppWizard!"
Version: Install Creator 2 build 28
Pros
Sorry, I cant find any!
Cons
PC only software. Does not do what is is advertised to do.
Summary
I purchased AppWizard to help us in finishing our iPhone app. This product does not work. Advertised as a PC & Mac software program. It's not! Its a Windows based only program. Trying to get a refund through RegNow and AppWizard. NIGHTMARE! Finally had to file complaints with the St Paul, MN BBB, PayPal, North Dakota Supreme Court State BD of Law Examiners, our attorney... lets see what happens! ***NOT RECOMMENDED***
