4 Setup programs into a big Setup.exe ?

[Kostas_Theodorou]

Is there any utility i could use to pack 4 Setup.exe into a big Setup.exe?

All i want to do is.. the final user to run the general Setup and the 4 sub-setups to run one after another.
Thank you.

The WinZip Self-Extractor (http://www.winzip.com/winzipse.htm?wzt#WhatIs), (an add-on to WinZip), could be used. First create a BATch file that will sequentially launch your SETUP programs. For example:

@echo off
start /w setup1.exe
start /w setup2.exe
start /w setup3.exe
cls
exit

Next use WinZip to zip up all of your setup programs along with your BATch file. Then launch the WinZip Self-Extractor to create your self-extracting, auto-launching .EXE program.

As you're creating this .EXE, one of the WinZip Self-Extractor's prompts will ask you for the name of the file you want to run after the files have been extracted. This is where you would enter the name of your BATch file. There are also a few other prompts such as opening prompt, an "About", etc.

Works for me. http://discussions.virtualdr.com/smile.gif

Any special requirements for these individual setup routines, such as requiring reboots. If so then those issues would have to be addressed.
