EMCO MSI Package Builder 4.5 Allows Creating MSI Packages Targeted at Windows 8 and 8.1
San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) July 31, 2013 -- EMCO Software, a leading provider of software deployment solutions for Windows networks, has released a new version of its EMCO MSI Package Builder software intended for a quick and easy creation of silent MSI packages and repackaging of non-silent installations into silent MSI packages ready for remote unattended deployment. The new version of EMCO MSI Package Builder allows network administrators to create MSI packages suitable for deployment under Windows 8 and Windows 8.1.
EMCO MSI Package Builder can be used by network administrators to prepare Windows software installations for automated deployment on remote PCs. The application includes a monitoring module that can track file system and registry changes performed by an original installation installed manually and allows generating a silent MSI package to emulate manual software installation. Also, it allows network administrators to automate installation of software installers that were not designed by software vendors for silent automatic deployment. EMCO MSI Package Builder is used by thousands of companies worldwide helping network administrators to save time for software deployment by automating deployment tasks.
The new version of EMCO MSI Package Builder allows network administrators to create MSI packages intended for Windows 8 and Windows 8.1. When an MSI package is generated, the network administrator can select the platforms on which the MSI will be deployed. It is possible to configure the MSI to be deployed either on all Windows platforms or on selected platforms only, including Windows 8 and Windows 8.1. If the MSI package is selected to be deployed on a non-compatible platform, the deployment process will be terminated automatically.
"Using the new version of EMCO MSI Package Builder, network administrators can deploy software very flexibly. For example, they can create separate deployment packages for the Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 platforms and rest assured that those packages will not incidentally be deployed on other platforms. Using the new version of the application, administrators can deploy a single installation for all platforms or different installations for different platforms depending on the particular software repackaging case", Thorarinn Oskarsson, CEO at EMCO Software, says.
