  • I love NSIS and the nsis-mode in Emacs.
  • Very good, could be much simpler to set up your setup script though.
  • A free system for rapid development. It can be easily converted to msix. It helped me in two no profit projects :)
  • you can you virtualbox on this
  • Great easy to use program!
  • Thank you very much for the free open source program!
  • just a top system for building installations.
  • .ZIP to .EXE works well. The scriptable install system is not the best...
  • Works wonders! Much easier than Microsoft's Msi tools. Developers should spend their time on features rather than learning convoluted installer tools like Msi. NSIS really solves this install problem! Highly recommend if you are thinking of distributing app on Windows 10 ecosystem. It was successfully used in project Picturethrill Wallpaper Changer App, which changes your desktop background daily with beautiful image from category that you choose.
  • Indispensable for any project!
  • I developed a data-base software some years ago (dbConstructor) and was using InstallShield to create the installation software at the time the file size that was created was 8.5 mb after using NSIS to create the installation software the file size came down to 3.1 mb. So it was well worth it to learn the scripting language. I can easily recommend this software for developers.

  • It's my turn to write review. It's the way to say thanks to people who put some real effort to make my life easier. I've been using NSIS for 4 years to deliver my application. Be warned: you need to write script to make it work, there is no setup with couple of clicks.! But, don't worry, it took no more than 5 minutes to create working setup. There are tons of templates available on the net, and support by Internet community. It's really piece of cake! Thanks guys!

  • Very handy installer-maker. You can program virtually any thing using scripts. Nullsoft is well known brand.

  • YEAH!!!
  • Great project. Doing complex things is, of course, complex, but you can do everything you want with a commensurate investment of time and effort.

  • Excellent to install any kind of applications, without suspecting 3rd. party paid influences like others... The best in the world without a doubt.
  • Yes, it does the job, but why I have to use its assembly-like stack-based macro-heavy language to do anything than the most trivial tasks? The scripts quickly grow convoluted and unmaintainable.

  • It comes up as having a trojan when uploaded to virus total, but the Wiki explains why this happens.
  • Easy to use
  • very good project, thanks! Read the news on this site howeverlife.ru
  • Good Installer!
  • I use this for WinBOLT, very easy to use and love the .ZIP feature. Thanks for your hard work!
  • Excellent for packing software and distribute the installer
  • Great for when you have no money for other software like InstallShield
