Create Installer

The Create Installer workspace is for developers who want to provide a polished, enterprise-grade experience to their customers. Instead of sending a ZIP file, you can generate a complete Windows setup project that handles file placement, shortcuts, and uninstallation.

To open this dialog, click the Create Installer button in the Distribution panel.

VBA Padlock Studio integrates with Paquet Builder to transform your project files into a standalone .exe installer.

• Smart Directory Mapping: Automatically organizes your Office file and its bin\ folder into the correct hierarchy on the target machine.
• System Integration: Configure the installer to create Start Menu shortcuts and a professional entry in the Windows “Add/Remove Programs” list.
• Custom Branding: Define the installer’s window title and application name to match your corporate identity.

Configure how your application appears to the end-user during and after installation:

1. Identity: Set the Installer Title and Application Name to ensure consistent branding throughout the setup process.
2. Destination: Choose the default installation path (e.g., My Documents or Program Files) to ensure the user knows exactly where your software resides.
3. Automation: Use the Open project in Paquet Builder toggle to jump straight from configuration to final compilation.
