Spread the love

A few days ago, Jordan Russell released a new beta version of Inno Setup 5. It concerns version number 5.1.3 beta and it is available from here are downloaded. This program makes it easy to put together installation packages. The program provides the ability to add information to the registry and ini files, create shortcuts, and compress the installation files. Furthermore, an uninstaller can also be created and the installation can be made available in several languages. The following changes have been made in this release:

What’s New in Inno Setup beta 5.1.3:

  • Pascal Scripting:
    • When Setup/Uninstall is running in 64-bit mode, most of the support functions that access files now disable WOW64 file system redirection, meaning they are now capable of working with files located in the 64-bit System directory. Some, however, still don’t. See the 64-bit Installation Limitations topic in the help file for specifics.
    • Replaced FileSearch function with a new implementation that properly supports MBCS, and doesn’t search the current directory unless it is told to (eg by including “.” in the directory list).
  • Uninstaller: Now hides the taskbar button when the /VERYSILENT switch is used.
  • IDE change: Added an option to the New Script Wizard to specify that the application doesn’t have a main executable file.
  • Based on RemObjects Pascal Script SVN code revision 1039.
  • Minor tweaks.
