just finished a new installer with options for multiple customers, added docs and help, etc. We've been running NSIS since 2.00

I use WiX 2.0 (upgrading to 3.0 as we speak) as it ties in nicely with our continous integration and gives me full control over every aspect of the install. Downside is there is a definite learning curve here but once competency is reached a great deal of satisfaction results.
You can please some of the people all of the time and all of the people some of the time but not all of the people all of the time.

me too! Advanced Installer is 1/4 the price of InstallShield and Wise, is easy to use, and pretty powerful. We haven't regretted the decision to buy it. - Sean

I've used NSIS for years. But with .Net now I usually do a Studio setup project for the install, and NSIS for patches. I've always liked NSIS. From the makers of WinAmp and AssIO! :laugh:

I was just going to ask about WIX. I know Microsoft uses it for some of their biggest products (MS Office stands out in my mind), but I haven't heard any actual reviews or opinions on it. Good to know that although there is a steep learning curve, it is very useful once the learning is done. Being free doesn't hurt either :)

I agree. For non-MSI installations, InnoSetup is really good. :)
