Graphical Installer Wizard is user friendly tool for creating skinned Graphical Installer Powered Installers. If you installed Graphical Installer Wizard with automated installer then it should be configured correctly. Otherwise do following steps:

Part A - Installation check

• A. Start Visual Studio (2005 - 2022, Express editions are not supported, but Community is).

• B. In main menu you can see a new item – Visual & Installer. Click it.
  
  
  If you can see this menu then Graphical Installer Wizard was installed correctly and you can go to step 3 Configuration and then Launch the Graphical Installer Wizard.

  Tip:
  All commands from this menu are also available throught the toolbar. Click appropriate icon in toolbar to perform the action.
  

Troubleshooting:

• If you cannot see the Inno Setup sub-menu or the toolbar from picture above then please check your Visual & Installer installation directory for presence of file viGiwInnoSetup.dll.
• Plug-in is being copied here during the setup process of Visual & Installer. Make a sure you checked it during installation of Visual & Installer.
  
  
  
  Also you can install Graphical Installer Wizard by checking the checkbox during Graphical Installer for Inno Setup installation:
  
  
  
  
• If you still cannot see it please do the Manual installation and start Part A again.
• 
  
  

  Part B - Configuration of plug-in

  Tip:
  You need to do this whole procedure only once - when launching the Wizard for the very first time. For next time the settings are remembered in .ini file.

  • 1. Start Visual Studio if you have closed it.

  • 2. In main menu select Visual & Installer -> Inno Setup.
    
    

  • 3. Click Configure Graphical Installer item.

    Tip:
    If you had Visual & Installer already installed, everything is set automatically during the setup process, so all you need is to check whether paths are correct.

  • 4. Configuration dialog is shown.
    
    
    
    If shown paths are correct go to point 6. Otherwise continue with next point.

  • 5. Click the button Browse and select appropriate files:
    - For Compiler option browse to {Inno Setup 6} directory and select ISCC.exe
    - For Graphical Installer option browse to {Inno Setup 6}\Graphical Installer directory and select GraphicalInstaller_functions.iss

  • 6. When done click OK to save changes. Graphical Installer Wizard is now configured.

  Warning:
  If you reinstall Inno Setup or move it to other directory you need to update these settings. If something goes wrong the Wizard dialog will show an error message to inform you to change settings.

  
  Now you can continue with Launching a Graphical Installer Wizard.
