Changes in InstallMate 11
InstallMate 11 is an updated successor to InstallMate 9, which in turn was a development of the earlier InstallMate 7, Installer 5, and ExpertInstall 3 products. The most important changes in InstallMate 11 compared to InstallMate 9 are:
- Support for ARM AArch64 (arm64) editions of Windows.
- Support for the latest .Net prerequisites and Microsoft C/C++ runtimes.
- Improved New Project wizard that prepares a ready-to-install project
- Dozens of detail improvements and corrections.
- Modest modernisation of the user interface.
- Modernisation of the internal code base, with updates to the latest C and C++ compilers, improved code generation, and additional security checks (not that we experienced security problems with the old code, but better safe than sorry).
- Removal of obsolete features such as the import of Visual Basic projects.
- Removal of project conversion from InstallMate 7 and earlier. InstallMate 11 reads InstallMate 9 projects without problem, but if you have InstallMate 7 or earlier projects, then you must convert them to InstallMate 9 format first (using InstallMate 9) before opening them in InstallMate 11.
Detailed per-release information can be found in the InstallMate 11 Release notes.
