VISUAL INSTALLER CAN INSTALL AUTOCAD PROFILES

CAD

Visual Installer is a very flexible setup tool and has built-in support for installation of AutoCAD profiles for Autodesk AutoCAD.

Logotype - AutoCADTo give you a great flexibility when creating or updating AutoCAD profiles, we have added some special variables to the Registry tab in Visual Installer. By using these special variables it is easy for you to install or update AutoCAD profiles. These variables can also be used to find folder locations and other information that is used by Autodesk AutoCAD.

Both AutoCAD and AutoCAD LT, and 64 bit and 32 bit versions of AutoCAD are supported. Read more in this blog post:

HOW TO CHECK IF MICROSOFT OFFICE IS INSTALLED

Sometimes it can be useful to check if Microsoft Office is installed in a computer during an installation. There are conditions available in Visual Installer’s script language that can be used for this.

Script

The conditions in the script language can examine the following:

- check whether Microsoft Office is installed in the computer or not
- check if the installed Microsoft Office is 32 bit or 64 bit

This can be useful if you for example:

- install files that require that Office is installed in the computer
- install files that require a specific bitness of Office (for example 32 bit)
- want to install different files depending on the bitness of Office

We will give more details in this blog post:
