InstallShield 2020

MSIX Ready

The new release of the market-leading Windows Installer software, InstallShield 2020 , fully supports Microsoft’s packaging format, MSIX, and specifically adds functionality that makes the creation, conversion and modification of MSIX packages extremely easy for software suppliers, helping them take their products to market quickly and efficiently.

What that means for you: Productivity will go up, time to market will go down and your customers will love the first experience they have with your product.

Microsoft’s MSIX enables cleaner installations and uninstalls by running applications in their own containers.

InstallShield plays a major role in making it even easier for software companies to adopt MSIX. InstallShield helps developers build and convert MSIX packages in a matter of seconds.

The new InstallShield 2020 release adds even more ease of use. For example, developers can now build modification packages for any given MSIX package or leverage the support for MSIX Core to create a single suite installer targeting MSIX for different Windows platforms.

In addition, InstallShield 2020 adds the ability to build pure 64bit launchers for MSI and Suite installers and supports CloudHSM certificates for digital signing in AWS build environments.
