Actual Installer version 9.7 was released on January 12, 2024.
What's new:
Added:
- Support for PNG format for setup graphic files
- Support for subdirectories in <SetupTempDir>
- Ability to download files without Downloader.exe using variables - GETFILE
- Ability to read a custom line from a file using variables
- Ability to set the setup language using a variable <Language>
- Option to get the default system language - GetUserDefaultLangID (page Installation / Advanced) - it is recommended to use this option
- Option "Hide Password" for the Query Key feature. Added parameters -noshowhidepassword (do not show the "Show/Hide password" button), -serialnumbersonly
- Feature "Register App Path" (page Installation / Advanced) - this will register your app's main executable path in the system (the App Paths section in the Registry). This feature makes your program accessible from the command window or the Run dialog box without registering it in the PATH environment variable. Microsoft recommends registering your application in the App Paths registry subkey.

- If the setup program is not active, it flashes on the taskbar
- Classic Interface - Custom Variables and "Check for Updates Before Installation" are executed before the main dialog appears. To execute after, add -varonactivate, -updateonactivate to Setup Parameters
- Variables deprecated: <UserName>, <UserCompany>, <UserSerial>
- Other little improvements
Fixed:
