 CODE SIGN A SETUP PACKAGE
Nowadays it is important to have a setup package code signed
before distribution. This is for many reasons:
- You will avoid deterrent warning messages in Windows.
- You will avoid that your installation can´t be started
in some systems.
- You can be sure that nobody has manipulated your setup
package.
- You will protect your setup package against viruses and
malware.
With Visual Installer it is easy
to code sign a setup package. Read more in this blog

ADD FILES FROM A PREVIOUSLY USED
FOLDER
I guess that you sometimes are in the situation that you
need to add more files from the same source folder as some
of the files that already are included in your setup project.
But to get there you need to browse through many folders
on your hard disk which may take some time.
To simplify and speed up this process we have added a new
item to the right-click menu in the File list tab
in Visual Installer. We explain more in our blog:

USING ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
It is possible to use Windows environment variables in Visual
Installer. The environment variables can be used in the
Registry tab and in the INI files tab, and you uses them
in the same way as a Visual Installer variable.
