The aim of the project is to provide a command line tool to quickly build software installation packages for Windows.
It can be used to create software packages for distribution or as a utility to manage ad hoc application installations.
The project is built using C++ and is designed to be portable, compact and fast.
You can download the latest release here.
The stand-alone executable winpkg.exe can be used from the desktop or the command line.
Provide the application source folder as a parameter and winpkg will build a stand-alone executable installer package.
Add your own setup.bat to your application source folder to customize the application installer.
Drag and drop your application folder onto the winpkg executable.
Provide the application folder path as an argument to winpkg:
winpkg c:\install\foobar
To view help on the command line, run winpkg without arguments.
